None of the above. Oxygen is an element, while acids and bases are compounds of more than one element. The degree of acidity or alkalinity is given as pH, which is a measure of the Hydrogen ion concentration in the solution. Oxygen by itself, being an element, has no hydrogen ion concentration, so is none of those things. Neither, in that context of pH, is it neutral.

Which Brønsted-Lowry acid has the strongest conjugate base?

The Brønsted-Lowry acid with the weakest (most stable) conjugate base is considered to be the strongest acid. Therefore, a strong acid like HCl, which has a very weak conjugate base (Cl⁻), would have the strongest conjugate base among Brønsted-Lowry acids.


What is the conjugate acid of O2-?

The conjugate acid of O2- is H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide). When O2- gains a proton, it forms H2O2.


What type of reaction is NH3 plus O2 - NO plus H2O?

This is an oxidation reaction of N from -3 (in NH3) to +2 (in NO) oxidation value. 4 NH3 + 5 O2 --> 6 H2O + 4 NO


Is CaCO3 s CaO s plus O2 g an example of an acid-base reaction?

No, this is an example of a decomposition reaction where calcium carbonate (CaCO3) decomposes into calcium oxide (CaO) and carbon dioxide (CO2), not an acid-base reaction. Acid-base reactions typically involve a transfer of protons (H+) from an acid to a base.


What acid is O2?

O2 denotes oxygen. It is element. It is not an acid.

Is magnesium nitrate a base or acid?

Neither. Strictly speaking it is a very weak base. A Magnesium Nitrate solution is neutral with a pH of 7.0. Salts of strong acids are neutral. Magnesium Nitrate is salt of Nitric acid which is very strong acid.


Is acetamide acid or base?

Acetamide is a weak base. It can undergo protonation to form the conjugate acid, acetic acid, in acidic solutions.


Which of the following best describes a bronsted lowry acid base reaction?

A Brønsted-Lowry acid-base reaction involves the transfer of a proton (H+) from the acid to the base. The acid donates a proton, while the base accepts a proton. This results in the formation of a conjugate base from the acid and a conjugate acid from the base.
