Question

Part B Write a chemical equation for HNO3(ag) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer. Part C Write a chemical equation for NH4+(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer. Part D Write a chemical equation for KOH(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer. Write a chemical equation for HC2H3O2(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition

Explanation / Answer

Solution :-

According to the Arrhenius theory of the acid and base an acid is the species which gives H^+ ions in the aqueous solution and base gives the OH- ions in the aqueous solution.

Following are the equations for the each part

Part B)

HNO3(aq)    ------- > H^+(aq)   + NO3^-(aq)

Part c)

NH4^+(aq)   -------- > H^+(aq) + NH3(aq)

Part d)

KOH(aq)   ----------- > K^+(aq) + OH-(aq)

Part e)

HC2H3O2(aq)   ------------ > H^+(aq) + C2H3O2^-(aq)
