Answer:

Water acts as a Brønsted-Lowry Base.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the theories describing acids, we say that a Brønsted-Lowry Acid is such substance which is able to donate a H⁺ and a Brønsted-Lowry base is such substance which is able to accept a donated H⁺.

In such a way, since hydronium (H₃O⁺) is a product, meaning that water received one H⁺, we conclude water is acting as a Brønsted-Lowry base. Moreover, ammonium ion acts as Brønsted-Lowry Acid.

Best regards.

Which description best characterizes the motion of particles in a solid
bixtya [17]
<span>The movement of particles within a solid is extremely slow when compared to that of a gas. It is also significantly slower in movement than that of the movement found within the particles of liquid. The more movement present and the faster the movement of the particles the more space will be present between each particle. This causes the material to spread out as they become less densely packed within a solid material.</span>
