When the charged balloon is brought near the wall, it repels some of the negatively charged electrons in that part of the wall. Therefore, that part of the wall is left repelled.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- Balloons don't stick to walls. However, if you rub the balloon on an appropriate piece of material such as clothing or a wall, electrons are pulled from the other material to the balloon.
- The balloon now as more electrons than normal and therefore has an overall negative charge. Two balloons like this will repel each other.
- The other material now has an overall positive charge. Because opposite charges attract, the balloon will now appear to stick to the other material. If you didn't rub the balloon first, it's charge would be neutral and it wouldn't stick to the wall.
A weak Bronsted-Lowry base is a weak proton acceptor, where the proton is in the form of H+, so the conjugate acid formed contains one more H atom and an extra positive charge.

Explanation:
The ionization equation is
⇄ (1)
As the Bronsted definition sais, an acid is a substance with the ability to give protons thus, H2PO4 is the acid and HPO42- is the conjugate base.
The Ka expression is the ratio between the concentration of products and reactants of the equilibrium reaction so,
![Ka = \frac{[HPO_{4}^{-2}] [H_{3}O^{+}]}{[H_{2}PO_{4}^{-}] [H_{2}O]} = 6.2x10^{-8}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ka%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BHPO_%7B4%7D%5E%7B-2%7D%5D%20%5BH_%7B3%7DO%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BH_%7B2%7DPO_%7B4%7D%5E%7B-%7D%5D%20%5BH_%7B2%7DO%5D%7D%20%3D%206.2x10%5E%7B-8%7D)
The pKa is
The pKa of H2CO3 is 6,35, thus this a stronger acid than H2PO4. The higher the pKa of an acid greater the capacity to donate protons.
In the body H2CO3 is a more optimal buffer for regulating pH due to the combination of the two acid-base equilibriums and the two pKa.
If the urine is acidified, according to Le Chatlier's Principle the equilibrium (1) moves to the left neutralizing the excess proton concentration.
