Write a chemical equation for HF(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition. Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer. Write a chemical equation for Ba(OH)_2 (aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition. Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer. Write a chemical equation for HC_2H_3O_2(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition. Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer.

Explanation / Answer

As per Arrhenius definition of an acid it dissociates in water to give H+ (hydrogen ion) or H3O+ (hydronium ion)

1) HCl(aq) + H2O =H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

2) HF(aq) + H2O = H3O+(aq) + F-(aq)

A Arrhenius base is one which in water dissociates to by hydroxide ion OH-

3) Ba(OH)2(aq) = Ba2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)

4) HC2H3O2(aq) = C2H3O2-(aq) + H+(aq)
