Practice: Bronsted Lowry Acids and Bases

Which statement describes an alternative theory of acids and bases?

• Acids and bases are both H⁺ acceptors.

• Acids and bases are both H⁺ donors.

• Acids are H⁺ acceptors, and bases are H⁺ donors.

• Acids are H⁺ donors, and bases are H⁺ acceptors.

According to one acid-base theory, the HSO₄⁻(aq) ions act as

• a base because they accept H⁺ ions

• a base because they donate H⁺ ions

• an acid because they accept H⁺ ions

• an acid because they donate H⁺ ions

According to one acid-base theory, the NH₃(g) molecules act as

• an acid because they accept H⁺ ions

• an acid because they donate H⁺ ions

• a base because they accept H⁺ ions

• a base because they donate H⁺ ions

According to one acid-base theory, the water acts as

• a base because it accepts an H⁺

• a base because it donates an H⁺

• an acid because it accepts an H⁺

• an acid because it donates an H⁺

Which species acts as a base in the forward reaction?

• S^2-

• H₂O

• HS⁻

• OH⁻

According to one acid-base theory, the forward reaction is classified as an acid-base reaction because

• CH₃NH₂ is a H⁺ donor and H₂S is a H⁺ acceptor

• H₂S is a H⁺ donor and CH₃NH₂ is a H⁺ acceptor

• HS⁻ and CH₃NH₃⁺ are both H⁺ donors

• CH₃NH₃⁺ and HS⁻ are both H⁺ acceptors

Which ion is represented by X? (Table E would be helpful here!)

• hydroxide

• hydronium

• hypochorite

• perchlorate
