Is CIO2- a bronsted acid base or both?
It is a Bronsted base.
Why can water act as an acid or a base in a bronsted lowry reaction?
Because a bronsted-lowry acid donates proton such as ( H+ ) and water can donate H+ such as ( H2O + NH3 ---> NH4+ + OH- ) here water donated H+ to ammonia to produce NH4 ( which is an acid )
What is the definition of a bronsted-Lowry base?
A Bronsted-Lowry base is a proton acceptor.
What is a Brønsted-Lowry acid?
A Bronsted-Lowry Acid Donates H+ ions
Why does a strong acid react differently in water than a strong base?
Depending on the type of acid/base (Arrhenius, Bronsted, Lewis), the acid donates protons and a base doesn't but accepts protons, or the base donates OH- and the acid doesn't, or the acid accepts a pair of electrons and the base donates a pair of electrons. They are just different, that's why.
Is CIO2- a bronsted acid base or both?
It is a Bronsted base.
Is the theophylline act as Bronsted base or Bronsted acid and why?
base
An arrhenius acid is an bronsted lowry acid bt an arrhenius base is NT a bronsted lowry base?
no, arhenious base is also a bronsted lowry base
Is sulfuric acid a bronsted-lowry acid or base?
As the name sulfuric acid might indicate, it is a bronsted-lowry acid.
IS PO4 3- a bronsted acid or base?
base
Is sulfuric acid a bronsted acid bronsted base or both?
It's a Brønsted Acid because it gives up a proton in water.
What is true of the bronsted-lowry base?
A Bronsted-Lowery base accepts H+ ions
Could a bronsted-lowry acid not be an arrhenius acid?
Since protons are always transferred in the Arrenhius concept, all Arrhenius acid/base reactions are also Bronsted-Lowry acid/base reactions.
Is H3BO3 an acid or a base?
No, it is a niether bronsted lowry base nor bronsted acid. It is a lewis acid because it can accept electron pairs. For this to be a bronsted lowry acid, it would have to donate a proton, which this molecule is incapable of due to its electronic deficiency. I hope this helps.
What best describes a bronsted lowry acid base reaction?
Acid + base conjugate base + conjugate acid
In a Bronsted-Lowry acid-base reaction the original acid becomes a what?
The product will be a conjugate base.
How does a Bronsted-Lowry acid form its conjugate base when dissolved in water?
The anion of Lowery-Bronsted acid acts as the conjugate base in this case, for example the conjugate base of HCl is Cl anion.
