Luckily there's a lot of information online, including a demo file: ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/achemso/
Anyway, here's a simple file that can act as a template. Have a look at the demo file at ftp.dante.de for a much more exhaustive example, including how to use schemes and insert references.
You can figure out the journal abbreviations from their URLs. Otherwise, page 4 in this pdf has a list: http://www.tug.org/texlive/Contents/live/texmf-dist/doc/latex/achemso/achemso.pdf
Anyway:
