Complete this equation to show how hydrofluoric acid HF acts
Complete this equation to show how hydrofluoric acid, HF, acts as a Brønsted-Lowry acid in water.
HF+H2O=?
Complete these Brønsted-Lowry reactions.
HPO4^2- +H^+=?
HPO4^2- +OH^-=?
Solution
HF + H2O = F- + H3O+
HPO4^2- +H^+ = H2PO4 ^-1
HPO4^2- +OH^- = PO4^3- + H2O
