1) H3PO4 (aq)
2) H2CO3 (aq)
3) H2SO4 (aq)
Anyone know what to do when there's "(aq)" ??

1) Phosphoric acid
2) Carbonic acid
3) Sulfuric acid
"aq" just means "aqueous solution". It means the compound is dissolved in water. You don't really do anything with it. If you have to do calculations with it, generally you're given the concentration of the solution. Then you can figure out the amount of the actual substance.

H2CO3 is carbonic acid
H2SO4 is sulfuric acid
I presume H3P04 is phosphoric acid.
Unless I'm mistaken, the (aq) means the acid is diluted as an aqueous solution (i.e., in water).

phosphoric acid (aq) = Relating to, similar to, containing, or dissolved in water; watery.

(aq) means aqueous [water] solution, and for this problem, it's completely irrelevant. The compounds are phosphoric acid, carbonic acid, and sulfuric acid.

Phosphoric, Carbonic and Sulphuric Acids..
Aqueous means these concentrated acids are dissolved in some quantity of WATER... (as opposed to alcohol or ether)
