In the reaction HPO 2 (aq) + H20(1) PO,3-(aq) + H3O* (aq) HPO (aq) is the H20(1) is the PO43 (aq) is th and H30*(aq) is the Bronsted Lowry acid Bronsted Lowry base reactant product conjugate acid conjugate base
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.
![### Understanding Acid-Base Reactions
In the reaction:
\[ \text{HPO}_4^{2-}(\text{aq}) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(\ell) \rightleftharpoons \text{PO}_4^{3-}(\text{aq}) + \text{H}_3\text{O}^+(\text{aq}) \]
we analyze the components based on their roles as acids and bases according to the Brønsted-Lowry theory.
### Reaction Breakdown
- **HPO\(_4^{2-}\) (aqueous)**
- **H\(_2\)O (liquid)**
- **PO\(_4^{3-}\) (aqueous)**
- **H\(_3\)O\(^+\) (aqueous)**
The task is to identify:
- The role of each reactant and product.
- Whether these species are acids, bases, conjugate acids, or conjugate bases.
### Identifying Acids and Bases
Extract information from the provided dropdown options:
1. **HPO\(_4^{2-}\)(aq) is the:**
- Select from: Brønsted-Lowry acid, Brønsted-Lowry base, reactant, product, conjugate acid, conjugate base
2. **H\(_2\)O(\(\ell\)) is the:**
- Select from: Brønsted-Lowry acid, Brønsted-Lowry base, reactant, product, conjugate acid, conjugate base
3. **PO\(_4^{3-}\)(aq) is the:**
- Select from: Brønsted-Lowry acid, Brønsted-Lowry base, reactant, product, conjugate acid, conjugate base
4. **H\(_3\)O\(^+\)(aq) is the:**
- Select from: Brønsted-Lowry acid, Brønsted-Lowry base, reactant, product, conjugate acid, conjugate base
### Example Selection Process
*HPO\(_4^{2-}\)* can accept a proton from *H\(_2\)O*, making it a Brønsted-Lowry base. After accepting a proton, it forms *H](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fc25f84cd-37fe-4eda-bb3a-0db4abed4038%2F3a8f729a-98a9-49fd-98b7-2e1e956ff67c%2Fai2isqs_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
