Answer:

Your cation is Pb2+

Explanation:

This is the explanation by chemical reactions

HCl (l) ----> H+(aq)  +  Cl-(aq)

Pb2+(aq)  +  2Cl-(aq)  --->  PbCl2 (s) ↓

H2SO4 (l) ----> 2H+ (aq)  +  SO4-2(aq)

Pb2+(aq)  +  SO4-2(aq) ---> PbSO4 (s) ↓

NaOH (l) ---> Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)

Pb2+(aq)  +  2OH-(aq) ---> Pb(OH)2 (s) ↓

If the reaction takes place in a strong alkaline medium, lead hydroxide dissolves in excess of base

What is the Bronsted acid of H2PO4- + OH-. ---- HPO42- + H2O?​
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The bronsted- Lowry acid is H₂PO₄⁻

Explanation:

Bronsted-Lowry acid  donates a proton (H⁺)

H₂PO₄⁻ + OH⁻ → HPO₄²⁻ + H₂O

In the reaction above, H₂PO₄⁻ is donating the proton to OH⁻ resulting in H₂O and the deprotonated species. This makes it a bronsted-Lowry acid.
