Is NH4 plus a bronsted acid?
The Bronsted-Lowry definition of an acid is a species which can give up an H+ ion, and HSO4- can deprotonate to give SO42- and H+. This is where the second hydrogen ion from sulfuric acid comes from.
Is H2O Bronsted acid or base or both?
Yes OH is in fact a Bronsted base making H3O a acid
Which if the following is an example of a bronsted-lowry acid?
Substances that can act both as an acid and as a base are called
Why do you not test sulfates with sulfuric acid?
I think it's because sulfate is the salt of sulfuric acid. They both have the same ions, therefore have no reaction. Its like adding sulfuric acid to sulfuric acid.
Can sulfuric acid neutralize hydrochloric acid?
No, because they are both acids. Sulfuric acid would only undergo an neutralization reaction when it comes in contact with a base (sodium hydroxide, baking soda, etc). When you mix sulfuric with hydrochloric acid, the only thing that would happen is that the sulfuric acid would dehydrate the hydrochloric acid, causing it to release nasty fumes of hydrogen chloride gas.
Is CIO2- a bronsted acid base or both?
It is a Bronsted base.

Which compound can act as both a bronsted-lowry acid and a bronstey-lowry base?
Ammonia (NH3) --> can become NH2- or NH4+ Water (H2O) --> can become OH- or H3O+
What is the formula for one common acid and base?
HCl is hydrochloric acid HI is hydroiodic acid HF is hydrofluoric acid H2SO4 is sulfuric acid HNO3 is nitric acid HBr is hydrobromic acid HClO4 is perchloric acid
Is sulfuric acid hyrdrochloric acid?
No. The chemical formula for sulfuric acid is H2SO4, while hydrochloric acid is HCl. Both, however, are classified as strong acids.
What type of reaction is sulfuric acid and calcium hydroxide?
2KOH + H2SO4 -> K2SO4 + 2H2O This is called a neutralization reaction. Both the acid and base are neutralized and a salt and water is produced.
Is dilute sulfuric acid a compound or a mixture?
Dilute means that something is in a mixture. In this case it is a mixture of sulfuric acid and water which are both compounds.
What two acids in pollution make acid rain?
Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides both react with water in the atmosphere to form acids, sulfuric acid and nitric acid.
