A. HNO3

B. KOH

C. NH3

D. HCl

2. The Bronsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases states that....


A. An acid and a base will react to produce salt and water

B. Acids produce OH- and bases produce H+ in a solution

C. Bases lose H+ and acids gain H+

D. Acids lose H+ and bases gain H+

Respuesta :

Acids lose H+ and bases gain H+

Arrhenius Theory: according to Arrhenius, acid is one that can donate proton in an aqueous solution, while base is one that can donate hydroxide ion in an aqueous solution.

Bronsted-Lowry Theory: according to Bronsted Lowry, acid is one that can donate protons while base is one that can accept a proton.

1. In first, only C. NH3 can't give hydroxide ion, but can accept a proton so it is a Bronsted-Lowry Base but not an Arrhenius base.

2.In second, as the definition suggested, bronsted base is one that can accept protons and acid is one that can loose protons. so answer is D. Acids lose H+ and bases gain H+.
