An aqueous solution of carbonic acid (H2CO3) contains H2CO3, HCO3–, and CO32– in different concentrations. Identify the amphoteric species in the solution. Ignore the water present in the solution.
Write equations that show the amphoteric species, NH3 and HSO4-, acting as both an acid and a base.
Of the following compounds, determine whether they are Arrhenius acid, Arrhenius base, or neither
Ca(OH)2
RbOH
C6H14
H2SO3
HNO2
KBr
H2S
HF
CH3COOH
Fe(OH)3
Identify the strongest Lewis acid among the following: BCl3, BF3, BI3, BBr3.
Rank the following oxyanions in order of increasing basicity based on the acid-dissociation constants (Ka) given below: SeO32–, AsO43–, SeO42–, and CrO42–.
H2SeO3: Ka1 = 2.3×10–3, Ka2 = 5.3×10–9
H3AsO4: Ka1 = 5.6×10–3, Ka2 = 1.0×10–7, Ka3 = 3.0×10–12
H2SeO4: Ka1 = very large, Ka2 = 2.2×10–2
H2CrO4: Ka1 = 1.8×10–1, Ka2 = 3.0×10–7

H2SO3 (Ka = 1.3x10-2)
CH3COOH (Ka = 1.8x10-5)
