Answer 1

The equation is as follow,

                                  HBr ₍aq₎  +  H₂O ₍l₎    →

Solution:
             HBr being strong acid with Ka value of 1.0 × 10⁹. When HBr is added to water, water acts as a base and HBr acts as a acid. Water picks the proton (H⁺) from HBr and converts into Conjugate acid (H₃O⁺) ahile HBr is converted into Conjugate Base (Br⁻) after loosing proton. The equation for this reaction is as follow,

                      HBr ₍aq₎  +  H₂O ₍l₎    →    H₃O⁺ ₍aq₎  +  Br⁻ ₍aq₎
