Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Reaction for the dissociation of acetic acid has to be written where the conjugate base formed should be put in a box.
Concept introduction:
According to the explanations by Bronsted-Lowry, if a species loses a proton then it is an acid whereas if a species receives one proton, then it is base.
If a base receives one proton, then the formed species is a conjugate acid whereas an acid lose one proton, then the formed species is a conjugated base.
(b)
Interpretation:
Reaction for the dissociation of carbonic acid has to be written where the conjugate base formed should be put in a box.
Concept introduction:
According to the explanations by Bronsted-Lowry, if a species loses a proton then it is an acid whereas if a species receives one proton, then it is base.
If a base receives one proton, then the formed species is a conjugate acid whereas an acid lose one proton, then the formed species is a conjugated base.
(c)
Interpretation:
Reaction for the dissociation of phosphoric acid has to be written where the conjugate base formed should be put in a box.
Concept introduction:
According to the explanations by Bronsted-Lowry, if a species loses a proton then it is an acid whereas if a species receives one proton, then it is base.
If a base receives one proton, then the formed species is a conjugate acid whereas an acid lose one proton, then the formed species is a conjugated base.
