Since acids have 1 more proton (H+ - ions) than base, and the acid gives it away, doesn't that mean that they switch roles? Acid
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

In an acid-base equilibrium, acid becomes a conjugate base and base becomes a conjugate acid.

Explanation:

Let's remember the Bronsted-Lowry theory to answer this specific question. According to the theory, acid is a proton donor, while a base is a proton acceptor.

Consider an acid in a form HA (aq) and base in a form of B (aq). Since acid is a proton donor, it will donate its hydrogen ion to the base, B. The resultant products would be A^{-} (aq) and BH^{+} (aq).

Remember that an acid-base reaction is an equilibrium reaction. This means we may also look at this proton transfer reaction from the product side towards the reactants. Summarizing what has been said, we may write the equilibrium as:

HA (aq) + B (aq) ⇄ BH^{+} (aq) + A^{-} (aq)

Now acid, HA, donates a proton to become a conjugate base. The conjugate base, if we look from the reverse equation side, is actually a base, since it can accept a proton to become HA. Similarly, B accepts a proton to become a conjugate acid. Looking from the reverse reaction, it can now donate a proton, so in reality we can consider it a base.

To summarize, your logic is correct.

How to prepare 250.00 ml of approximately 1.0 m hcl solution from the 2.5 m hcl solutio?
kirill115 [55]

To solve this we use the equation, 

M1V1 = M2V2

where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.

2.5 M x V1 = 1.0 M x .250 L

<span>V1 = 0.10 L or 100 mL of the 2.5 M HCl solution is needed

Hope this helps.</span>

A gas at 928 kpa, 129 C occupies a volume of 569 L. Calculate the volume at 319 kpa and<br> 32 C.
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

1255.4L

Explanation:

Given parameters:

P₁  = 928kpa

T₁  = 129°C

V₁  = 569L

P₂ = 319kpa

T₂  = 32°C

Unknown:

V₂  = ?

Solution:

The combined gas law application to this problem can help us solve it. It is mathematically expressed as;

           \frac{P_{1} V_{1} }{T_{1} }   = \frac{P_{2} V_{2} }{T_{2} }

P, V and T are pressure, volume and temperature

where 1 and 2 are initial and final states.

Now,

 take the units to the appropriate ones;

             kpa to atm,  °C to K

P₂ = 319kpa in atm gives 3.15atm

P₁  = 928kpa gives 9.16atm

T₂  = 32°C gives 273 + 32  = 305K

T₁  = 129°C gives 129 + 273  = 402K

Input the values in the equation and solve for V₂;

        \frac{9.16  x 569}{402}   = \frac{3.15 x V_{2} }{305}

       V₂   = 1255.4L

Can Hydrocyanic acid be a Lewis Acid? What about a Lewis Base?
FinnZ [79.3K]

HCN is a Bronsted acid; it can dissociate into H+ and CN-. And H+ is a Lewis acid because it accepts election pairs. ... In order for H+ and CN- to be formed, Hydrogen in HCN donates its electrons to Carbon. So in this sense, Hydrogen is the lewis base and Carbon is the lewis acid.
