No. It is highly basic.
sulphate ion is not amphoteric because according to Bronsted-Lowry concept an amphoteric specie is that which can donate as well as accept aproton but sulphate ion is not capable of donating proton so it is not amphoteric
No, the ammonium ion is not considered an amphoteric species because it can only act as an acid by donating a proton. Amphoteric species can act as both an acid and a base by accepting or donating a proton.
It is called the Sulphide ion
Yes, a bicarbonate ion (HCO3-) is amphoteric because it can act as either an acid or a base depending on the reaction it is involved in. It can accept a proton to act as a base, forming carbonic acid (H2CO3), or it can donate a proton to act as an acid, forming carbonate ion (CO32-).
Sulphur
S2-
A substance that can act as both an acid and a base is called amphoteric. This means it can either donate or accept a proton, depending on the reaction conditions. Water is a common example of an amphoteric substance.
it is S2- ,while sulphite ion is SO32-
-2 is the most common charge (sulphide ion).
Amphoteric is a chemical entity (ion or molecule) which can react as an acid but also as a base. Compounds of beryllium, tin, aluminium, lead, zinc have amphoteric hydroxides and oxides.
Yes, ammonia (NH3) is amphoteric. It can act as a base in the presence of an acid, accepting a proton to form ammonium ion (NH4+), and it can also act as an acid in the presence of a base, donating a proton to form amide ion (NH2-).
The formula for calcium sulfide is CaS. It consists of one calcium ion (Ca2+) and one sulfide ion (S2-).
