Chapter 4.3, Problem 1CP

Identify the Brø�nsted acid in the following equation:

${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}{\text{SO}}_{\text{2}}\left(aq\right)+{\text{2NH}}_{\text{3}}\left(aq\right)\to {\left({\text{NH}}_{\text{4}}\right)}_{\text{2}}{\text{SO}}_{\text{4}}\left(aq\right)$

a)

${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}{\text{SO}}_{\text{2}}\left(aq\right)$

b)

${\text{NH}}_{\text{3}}\left(aq\right)$

c)

${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}\left(l\right)$

d)

${\left({\text{NH}}_{\text{4}}\right)}_{\text{2}}{\text{SO}}_{\text{4}}$

e)

This equation does not contain a Brø�nsted acid.
