Answer:

A Brønsted-Lowry acid is a substance which donates protons to other substances. (option c.)

Explanation:

For Brønsted-Lowry acids, are the ones that donates protons and bases, the ones that accepts H⁺ from others compounds.

In this reaction:

NH₃  +  HCl → NH₄Cl

The hydrocloridic acid donates the proton to ammonia to make ammonium chloride. So the HCl, is a Brønsted-Lowry acid while the ammonia is a base.

There are cases, like water that behaves as acid and base.

These compounds are called amphoteric because it can donate H⁺ or OH⁻ at the same time.

H₂O ⇄  H⁺  +  OH⁻

Do bases contain hydrogen ions (H+)
Dmitrij [34]

One definition of an acid is a molecule that can donate a H+ ion. So for example if you have an acid such as hydrochloric acid (HCl) in water, HCl will donate it's H+ to the H2O molecule, forming Cl- and H3O+.  

In contrast, a base is a molecule that accepts H+ ions. This means a base such as NH3 reacts with H2O to form OH- and NH4.

So when pH is measured, it is the ratio of H3O+ ions to OH- ions. If there are more H3O+ ions, you then know that there are more acidic molecules in the solution, since they must be giving away their H+ ions.  

So a solution with an acid in it will have more H3O+ ions (which can be described as H+ ions) in it. However, an acid by itself will have nothing to donate H+ ions to.

How many moles of H2O are in 64.0 g of H2O
Alina [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

stoichiometry of C₂H₂ to H₂O is 2:2.

Number of moles of C₂H₂ = molar mass of C₂H₂  

Since the molar mass of C₂H₂  is 26 g/mol.

Number of C₂H₂  moles reacted = 64.0 g / 26 g/mol = 2.46 mol.

according to a molar ratio of 2:2.

the number of H₂O moles formed = a number of C₂H₂  moles reacted.

Therefore the number of H₂O moles produced = 2.46 mol
