Have you looked them up in a dictionary? If you are confused about certain aspects, we can try to help.  In economics, "commodity" has a different meaning than in everyday use (although it isn't much used in everyday use).  Merchandise and goods are pretty interchangable.  You can throw "products" into the mix.
