The property is its polarity (or hydrogen bonds)
Amphiprotic compounds are able to both donate and accept a proton.
Amphiprotic compounds contain a hydrogen atom and lone pair of valence electron.
For example, HSO₃⁻ (hydrogen sulfate ion) is an amphiprotic compound.
Balanced chemical equation for reaction when HSO₃⁻ donate protons to water:
HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ SO₄²⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq).
Ka = [SO₄²⁻] · [H₃O⁺] / [HSO₃⁻]
Balanced chemical equation for reaction when HSO₃⁻ accepts protons from water:
HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₂SO₄(aq) + OH⁻(aq).
Kb = [H₂SO₄] · [OH⁻] / [HSO₃⁻]
Water (H₂O), amino acids, hydrogen carbonate ions (HCO₃⁻) are examples of amphiprotic species.
Another example, water is an amphiprotic substance:
H₂O + HCl → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻
H₂O + NH₃ → NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

Answer:
A) HCI( hydrochloric acid)
Explanation:
HCI is a strong acid because it has more number of hydrogen ions whereas acetic acid contains less number of hydrogen ions so its a weak acid
Answer:
Concentration of dissolved salts = 34,038.76 ppm
Explanation:
Given:
Salinity of ocean water = 34
Find:
Concentration of dissolved salts
Computation:
Salinity of ocean water = 34 g/l
1g/l = 1001.14 ppm
Concentration of dissolved salts = 1001.14 ppm x 34
Concentration of dissolved salts = 34,038.76 ppm
The first one is correct because one mole of oxygen is half of 2O2 so it is half of the energy
it absorbs because the negative sign indicates energy taken inside
hope this helps
