Hi there, in this question we are trying to identify the bronsted -lowry acid and the bronsted -lowry base.
00:11
Well to do that we need to know the definition according to bronsted -lowry for an acid and a base.
00:17
Bronsted -lowry said an acid is a proton donor with a proton being a hydrogen ion.
00:28
A base is the opposite.
00:30
A base is going to be a proton acceptor.
00:33
So bronsted -lowry are looking at the process.
00:36
You know what's going on between the reactants and that's exactly what we're going to do to identify these.
00:42
Okay, so let's look at our first equation.
00:48
I'm going to leave out the states of matter because they are not necessary for us to identify the acid and the base.
00:54
We have aqueous hi and liquid h2o.
00:59
I'm actually going to write my h2o as hoh.
01:03
Just another way we could write h2o and this is going to produce the iodide ion and h3o+.
01:13
And both of those are aqueous.
01:17
All right, so looking at what's happening between the reactants and the product side, it looks like the hi loses an h.
01:28
So it is giving a hydrogen to the water...
