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.
If HCI Is added the concentration of HCOOH Will ?
Decrease
Increase
Or remain unchanged
![**Instructions**
Consider the following equilibrium as you answer the questions.
**Buffer System**
The chemical equilibrium is represented by the following equation:
\[ \text{HCOOH (aq)} + \text{H}_2\text{O (l)} \leftrightharpoons \text{HCOO}^- \text{(aq)} + \text{H}_3\text{O}^+ \text{(aq)} \]
- **HCOOH (aq):** Formic acid in aqueous solution.
- **H₂O (l):** Water in liquid form.
- **HCOO⁻ (aq):** Formate ion in aqueous solution.
- **H₃O⁺ (aq):** Hydronium ion in aqueous solution.
This represents a buffer system, where formic acid and the formate ion maintain pH stability in the solution.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fa7d7525f-9c27-4dea-8079-91e82ba48598%2F88cd1d15-588d-4545-9977-31b8880740bb%2Fhh04mva_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
