- Which of the following conditions indicate an acidic solution? pH = 3.04 (H+| > 1.0 X IO’7 A/ pOH = 4.51 |OH-J = 3.21 X 10"12 Marrow_forwardWrite equations that show H2PO4- acting both as an acid and as a base.arrow_forwardIn each of the following acid-base reactions, identify the Brnsted acid and base on the left and their conjugate partners on the right. (a) C2H5N(aq) + CH3CO2H(aq) C5H5NH+(aq) + CH3CO2(aq) (b) N2H4(aq) + HSO4(aq) N2H5+(aq) + SO42(aq) (c) [Al(H2O)6]3+ (aq) + OH(aq) [Al(H2O)5OH]2+ (aq) + H2O+()arrow_forward
- Which acid has the strongest conjugate base? (a) HNO2 (b) C6H5CO2H (c) HCN (d) HClarrow_forward(a) Which is the stronger Bronsted acid, HCO3 or NH4+? Which has the stronger conjugate base? (b) Is a reaction between HCO3- ions and NH3 product- or reactant-favored at equilibrium? HCO3(aq) + NH3(aq) CO32(aq) + NH4+(aq) (c) You mix solutions of sodium hydrogen phosphate and ammonia. The net ionic equation for a possible reaction is HPO42(aq) + NH3(aq) PO43(aq) + NH4+(aq) Does the equilibrium lie to the left or to the right for this reaction?arrow_forwardAccording to the Arrhenius theory of acids and bases, how do you recognize an acid and a base?arrow_forward
- Which of the following substances are acids in terms of the Arrhenius concept? Which are bases? Show the acid or base character by using chemical equations. a P4O10 b Na2O c N2H4 d H2Tearrow_forwardStudents are often surprised to learn that organic acids, such as acetic acid, contain OH groups. Actually, all oxyacids contain hydroxyl groups. Sulfuric acid, usually written as H2SO4, has the structural formula SO2(OH)2, where S is the central atom. Identify the acids whose structural formulas are shown below. Why do they behave as acids, while NaOH and KOH are bases? a. SO(OH)2 b. ClO2(OH) c. HPO(OH)2arrow_forward
