Write a net ionic equation to show that acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), hc9h7o4, behaves as a brønsted-lowry acid in water.
Thepotemich [5.8K]
By definition, Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor in the acid-base neutralization reaction. When a weak acid like acetylsalicylic acid is reacted with water, the water here acts as the Bronsted-Lowry base. This is possible because water has properties of amphoterism - can act as an acid or base. In this case, acetylsalicylic acid would have to donate its H+ atom to water, so that it would yield a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺. The complete net ionic reaction is shown in the picture.

So, in the reaction, the products yield are the acetylsalicylate ion and the hydronium ion.

Why are units used that are to express the densities of gases different from those used to express the densities of solids or li
aksik [14]
If the units for gases were the same as the units for numbers would be too small to be convenient.

For example, the density of iron is 7.87 g/cm³.

Using the same units, the density of hydrogen is 0.000 0899 g/cm³.

It is much more convenient to express the density in numbers that are easier to visualize: 0.0899 g/L, and that is still a small number.
