Answer:

Explanation:

The definition of acids and bases by Arrhenius Theory  was modified and extended by  Bronsted-Lowry.

Bronsted-Lowry defined acid as a molecule or ion which donates a proton while a base is a molecule or ions that accepts the proton. This definition can be extended to include acid -base titrations in non-aqueous solutions.

In this theory, the reaction of an acid with a base constitutes a transfer of a proton from the acid to the base.

From the given information:

\mathsf{HCN _{(aq)} + H_2O_{(l)} \to CN^{-}_{(aq)} + H_3O_{(aq)}}

From above:

We will see that HCN releases an H⁺ ion, thus it is a Bronsted-Lowry acid

H_2O accepts the H⁺ ion ,thus it is a Bronsted-Lowry base.

The formula of the reactant that acts as a proton donor is <u>HCN</u>

The formula of the reactant that acts as a proton acceptor is <u>H2O</u>

Answer:

21091mg of aspirin the person need to consume

Explanation:

To solve this question we must find the mass of the person in kg. Knowing the lethal dose for aspirin is 400mg/kg of person, we can find the amount of aspirin that the person need to consume to get a lethal dose:

<em>Mass person:</em>

116lb * (1kg / 2.2lb) = 52.7kg

<em>Lethal dose:</em>

52.7kg * (400mg / kg) =
