What is a characteristic of the Brønsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases?

acc. to this concept , acids are proton donor and base are proton acceptor . reverse of these reactions are also acid base pairs and the pairs are known as conjugate acid base pairs . .


Do conjugate adid base pairs have similar chemical properties?

yes


Is PO4 and HPO3 conjugate acid base pair?

No, the equation is: HPO4-2 → H+ + PO4-3 The HPO4-2 and PO4-3 are conjugate acid base pairs.


Give the products what acid base reactions and identify the conjugate acid base pairs NH3 H2O and NH4 CN?

NH3 + H20 <----> NH4+ + OH- Ammonia is a weak base so it is the favored side of the equilbrium. Conjugate acid and base pairs only differ by a proton. So ammonia and ammonium are pairs and water and hydroxide ions are pairs. NH4+ + CN- <-------> HCN + NH3

A quadratic equation can't have one imaginary solution?

That's true. Complex and pure-imaginary solutions come in 'conjugate' pairs.

What is the zero pairs for the equation f(x)x2 plus 12 plus 6?

They are the complex conjugate numbers +/- 3*sqrt(2)*i where i is the imaginary square root of -1.


What is an acid pair know as?

Acid base pairs differing ONE proton (H+) are called conjugate acid-base pair.Examples:H3O+ and H2OH2O and OH-NH4+ and NH3HBr and Br-HNO2 and NO2-H2SO4 and HSO4-HSO4- and SO42-HOCl and OCl-(In order of 'acid and base' respectively)


Which city first sold shoes in boxes in pairs?

The concept of selling shoes in boxes as pairs first occurred in Vicksburg, Mississippi in 1884 at Phil Gilbert's Shoe Parlor.


Why is water a stronger base than methane?

Water has two lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom to which a hydrogen ion (H+) can bond to form water's conjugate acid, the hydronium ion (H3O+). Methane has no lone pairs and so cannot accept a hydrogen ion in this manner.
