Bronsted - Lowry acid in the given reaction is NH₄, as it gives H⁺ ion.
<h3>What is Bronsted - Lowry acid?</h3>
According to the theory of Bronsted - Lowry, acids are those substances which gives H⁺ ion or proton in the aqueous medium.
Given chemical reaction is :
NH₄ + HPO₄²⁻ → NH₃ + H₂PO₄⁻
In the above reaction NH₄ is the Bronsted - Lowry acid as it gives H⁺ ion in the reaction and changes to NH₃ which is the conjugate base of NH₄. Whereas HPO₄²⁻ is the Bronsted - Lowry base as it accepts the H⁺ ion to form H₂PO₄⁻ which is the conjugate acid of it.
Hence, option (1) is correct, i.e. NH₄ is the Bronsted - Lowry acid.

Answer:
A - 3
B - 6
Explanation:
The valency of hydrogen atom is +1
The valancy of an atom of other element combining with the hydrogen atom can be determined from the number of associated hydrogen.
when H combines with A, three atoms of hydrogen are used. Thus the valency of element A is -3
Now B combines with two molecules of A whose valency is -3
The valency of B would be twice the valency of element A i.e 6
if hydrogen combines with B, then the compound formed will be BH6
