Acids are donors of protons (H+) and bases are acceptors of protons.
For example:
1) hydrochloric acid (HCl) in reaction with water give one proton to water and become chloride anion (Cl-).
2) ammonia (NH3) Is base, in reaction with water accepts one protone and become ammonium cation (NH4+).

What is the valency of water​
just olya [345]

Answer:

In the water molecule oxygen combines with two hydrogens and so has a valency of 2. A simple diagram of a water molecule makes this plain. The hydrogen atoms are each sharing one pair of electrons - they have a valency of 1. The oxygen atom is sharing two pairs of electrons - it has a valency of 2.

Andrej [43]
The reaction of nitric acid and sulfuric acid is highly exothermic so it releases a lot of heat. If the temperature is not controlled, the reaction could go into thermal runaway, which is potentially extremely hazardous.

What effect do ocean and wind currents have on land temperatures?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Ocean currents act much like a conveyor belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, ocean currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.
