6. a. Sulfuric acid, H2SO4, can be described as a Brønsted-Lowry acid. State what you understand by this description. [1] b. The hydrogen sulfate anion, HSO4, is amphiprotic, so can act as an acid or a base. In the reaction of HSO4 with the hydronium cation, H30*, identify the two species acting as bases. [1] HSO4 (aq) + H3O+ (aq) H2SO4 (aq) + H2O (1) c. Two acidic solutions, X and Y, of equal concentrations have pH values of 2 and 6 respectively. Calculate the hydrogen ion concentrations in the two solutions and identify the stronger acid. i. [2] ii. Determine the ratio of the hydrogen ion concentrations in the two solutions X and Y. orce Toy [1]
