Red cabbage contains a water-soluble pigment called anthocyanin<span> that changes color when it is mixed with an acid or a base. The pigment turns red in acidic environments with a pH less than 7 and the pigment turns bluish-green in alkaline (basic) environments with a pH greater than 7.</span>
Answer:
The bronsted- Lowry acid is H₂PO₄⁻
Explanation:
Bronsted-Lowry acid donates a proton (H⁺)
H₂PO₄⁻ + OH⁻ → HPO₄²⁻ + H₂O
In the reaction above, H₂PO₄⁻ is donating the proton to OH⁻ resulting in H₂O and the deprotonated species. This makes it a bronsted-Lowry acid.
