Question
![**Question 11:**
In the forward reaction of this equilibrium, which substance acts as the Brønsted–Lowry base?
\[ \text{H}_2\text{S(aq)} + \text{CH}_3\text{NH}_2\text{(aq)} \rightleftharpoons \text{HS}^-\text{(aq)} + \text{CH}_3\text{NH}_3^+\text{(aq)} \]
Options:
a) Both substances act as Brønsted-Lowry bases.
b) Neither substance acts as a Brønsted-Lowry base.
c) \(\text{H}_2\text{S(aq)}\)
d) \(\text{CH}_3\text{NH}_2\text{(aq)}\)
**Explanation:**
This problem asks students to identify the Brønsted–Lowry base in the forward reaction of a given equilibrium. In a Brønsted–Lowry acid-base reaction, the base is the substance that accepts a proton (H⁺ ion).
**Reaction Analysis:**
- \(\text{H}_2\text{S(aq)}\) donates a proton to \(\text{CH}_3\text{NH}_2\text{(aq)}\), forming \(\text{HS}^-\text{(aq)}\) and \(\text{CH}_3\text{NH}_3^+\text{(aq)}\).
- \(\text{CH}_3\text{NH}_2\text{(aq)}\) accepts a proton, and thus acts as the Brønsted-Lowry base.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
d) \(\text{CH}_3\text{NH}_2\text{(aq)}\)](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F07d00ca0-0430-458f-a009-3ccbf8c49c5a%2F86b55abd-ae2c-4df8-acfe-11b2e0b23ae0%2Fjtcey9f_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
