Every Bronsted-Lowry acid donates its proton to a species which is its conjugate base. Every Bronsted-Lowry base similarly accepts a proton from its conjugate acid (Helmenstine, 2019). 1. HCI (aq) + NH3(aq) → NH4* (aq) + Cl(aq) NH3 (aq) + H₂O(1)→→ NH4* (aq) + OH(aq) 2. To do: From the reactions above, identify the Bronsted-Lowry acid, Bronsted-Lowry base, the conjugate acid, and conjugate base. Bronsted- Bronsted- Lowry base Conjugate Conjugate acid No. Lowry acid base 1 2
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
Every Bronsted-Lowry acid donates its proton to a species which is its conjugate base.
Every Bronsted-Lowry base similarly accepts a proton from its conjugate acid (Helmenstine,
2019).
