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

Chemistry
1 answer:
nlexa [21]2 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).

How will you separate a solution of benzene and chloroform?
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf Distillation}

Explanation:

  • State of benzene at RTP = liquid
  • State of chloroform at RTP = liquid
  • Boiling point of benzene = 80.1 °C
  • Boiling point of chloroform = 61.2 °C

Since, both of the chemicals are liquids, we can separate it by the process of distillation.

<u>Distillation:</u>

  • is the process in which we separate two liquids on the basis of their difference in boiling points.

<u>How it works:</u>

Since chloroform has less boiling point, it will evaporate and collected first and benzene will follow it after sometime.

- Apparatus of distillation is in the attached file.
