I'm not sure if this is a typo or just miss reading the sheet, but i think that HCI should be HCl hyrodgen chloride/hydrochloric acid.
If you go to a search engine and type in those other ones you should be able to get what you need.  If not there, then this site should give you some answers:

8. EDTA-- food perservative
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

3. Dimethyl ketone is acetone.  Therefore, fingernail polish remover would work.

4. I think Celite has magnesium silicate.  Could be wrong.

5. Butter.  Butyric acid is the chemical that gives rancid butter its smell.

6. Wood alcohol: methanol.  Obtained by destructive distillation of wood.
