Asthenosphere is inferred to have convection currents that cause tectonic plates to move because the material in this part of the mantle flows and can move plastically and convection is all about the movement of the magma,the hotter stuff rising towards the crust while the cooler stuff sinks deeper into the mantle.

Identify and label the Brønsted-Lowry acid, its conjugate base, the Brønsted-Lowry base, and its conjugate acid in each of the f

julia-pushkina [17]

Explanation:

As per Brønsted-Lowry concept of acids and bases, chemical species which donate proton are called Brønsted-Lowry acids.

The chemical species which accept proton are called Brønsted-Lowry base.

(a) $HNO_3 + H_2O \rightarrow H_3O^+ + NO_3^-$

$HNO_3$ is Bronsted lowry acid and $NO_3^-$ is its conjugate base.

$H_2O$ is Bronsted lowry base and $H_3O^+$ is its conjugate acid.

(b)

$CN^- + H_2O \rightarrow HCN + OH^-$

$CN^-$ is Bronsted lowry base and HCN is its conjugate acid.

$H_2O$ is Bronsted lowry acid and $OH^-$ is its conjugate base.

(c)

$H_2SO_4 + Cl^- \rightarrow HCl + HSO_4^-$

$H_2SO_4$ is Bronsted lowry acid and $HSO_4^-$ is its conjugate base.

Cl^- is Bronsted lowry base and HCl is its conjugate acid.

(d)

$HSO_4^-+OH^- \rightarrow SO_4^{2-}+H_2O$

$HSO_4^-$ is Bronsted lowry acid and $SO_4^{2-}$ is its conjugate base.

OH^- is Bronsted lowry base and $H_2O$ is its conjugate acid.

(e)

$O_{2-}+H_2O \rightarrow 2OH^-$

$O_{2-}$ is Bronsted lowry base and OH- is its conjugate acid.

$H_2O$ is Bronsted lowry acid and OH- is its conjugate base.
