Identify the Brønsted–Lowry acid and the Brønsted–Lowry
base on the left side of each of the following equations, and
also identify the conjugate acid and conjugate base of each
on the right side:
HCOOH(aq) + PO43-(aq) gives HCOO-(aq) + HPO42-(aq)

Respuesta :

The following applies to the above equation:

  • Brønsted–Lowry acid - HCOOH
  • Brønsted–Lowry base - PO43-
  • Conjugate acid - HPO42-
  • Conjugate base - HCOO-

What is Bronsted-Lowry acid and base?

Brønsted-Lowry acid is the any chemical species that acts as a donor of protons while Brønsted-Lowry base is any chemical species that acts as a proton acceptor.

In the following equation: HCOOH(aq) + PO43-(aq) = HCOO-(aq) + HPO42-(aq)

  1. HCOOH is the proton (H+) donor, hence, is the Brønsted-Lowry acid
  2. PO43- is the donor acceptor, hence, is the Brønsted-Lowry base
  3. HCOO- is the conjugate base that forms from the acid
  4. HPO42- is the conjugate acid that forms from the base
