HNO3 + H2O → H3O^+ + NO3 which ones are acids and which ones are bases

Chemistry
1 answer:
nlexa [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  • HNO₃ and  H₃O⁺ are acids
  • H₂O and  NO₃⁻ are bases

Explanation:

The chemical equation is:

  • HNO₃ + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + NO₃⁻

There are several definitions of acid and bases: Arrhenius', Bronsted-Lowry's and Lewis'.

Bronsted-Lowry model defines and <em>acid</em> as a donor of protons, H⁺.

In the given equation HNO₃ is such substance: it releases an donates its hdyrogen to form the H₃O⁺ ion.

On the other hand, a <em>base</em> is a substance that accepts protons.

In the reaction shown, H₂O accepts the proton from HNO₃ to form H₃O⁺.

Thus, H₂O is a base.

In turn, on the reactant sides the substances can be classified as acids or bases.

H₃O⁺ contain an hydrogen that can be donated and form H₂O; thus, it is an acid (the conjugated acid), and NO₃⁻ can accept a proton to form HNO₃; thus it is a base (the conjugated base).

Slav-nsk [51]
More specifically two atoms but this is indeed true. The elements do not need to be different but there can only be two atoms. The prefix indicates the quantity of two. Di - means "of two".

Please help me order these bonds
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

From least polar covalent to most polar covalent;

S-I< Br-Cl < N-H< Te-O

From most ionic to least ionic

Cs-F> Sr-Cl> Li- N> Al-O

Explanation:

Electro negativity is the ability of an atom in a bonding situation to attract the electron pair of a bond towards itself.

Electro negativity difference between two atoms determines the nature of bond existing between any two atoms. When this difference is large, an ionic bond exists in the compound. However, an intermediate difference in electro negativity implies the existence of a polar covalent bond.

Hence, going by electro negativity differences as mentioned in the question, the bonds in the answer were arranged in order of increasing polar covalent nature or decreasing ionic nature as shown.
