To the best of my knowledge these are the formulas. I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. :D

calcium chloride = CaCl2

calcium sulfate = CaSO4

magnesium chloride = MgCl2

magnesium sulfate (Epsom salt) = MgSO4

chelated iron = Depends on what you choose to chelate the iron with. For example Ferrous Gluconate = C12H22FeO14

iodine = I2 (It is not found in nature in this form to the best of my knowledge).

sodium carbonate (alk) = Na2CO3
