A Brønsted-Lowry acid is defined as a compound that gives hydronium ions to another compound—for example, hydrochloric acid gives H+ ions to compounds it reacts with. Brønsted-Lowry bases are compounds that can accept hydronium ions—when ammonia gets a hydronium ion from HCl, it forms the ammonium ion.

We have been given the condition that carbon makes up 35%
of the mass of the substance and the rest is made up of oxygen. With this, it
can be concluded that 65% of the substance is made up of oxygen. If we let x be
the mass of oxygen in the substance, the operation that would best represent
the scenario is,
<span> x = (0.65)(5.5 g)</span>
<span> <em> </em><span><em>x =
3.575 g</em></span></span>
