Let's write the reaction first.

HCl + H₂O ---> H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻

These reaction has two reactants, either the proton donor or the proton acceptor. Water is amphoteric, meaning it can act as an acid or base. Since HCl is an acid, then water in this reaction acts as a base. 

1. The proton donor is HCl because it donates H+ to water which yields a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺.
2. The proton acceptor is water.

What is the overall charge of the compound frbr
sammy [17]

Answer:

Zero  

Explanation:

FrBr is an ionic compound .

Fr is in Group 1. Br is in Group 17.

The charges on the ions are +1 and -1, respectively.

The compound consists of Fr⁺Br⁻ ions.

However, there are equal numbers of + and - charges, so

The overall charge of the compound is zero.

Consider the dissolution of MnS in water (Ksp = 3.0 × 10–14). MnS(s) + H2O(l) Mn2+(aq) + HS–(aq) + OH–(aq) How is the solubility
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The solubility of MnS will decrease on addition of KOH solution.

Explanation:

As per the equation given:

MnS(s)+H_{2}O(l) -->Mn^{+2}(aq)+HS^{-}(aq)+OH^{-}(aq)

On dissolution of MnS in water it gives a basic solution as it gives hydroxide ions.

Now when the we are adding aqueous KOH solution, it will dissociate as:

KOH(aq)--->K^{+}(aq)+OH^{-}(aq)

Thus it will further furnish more hydroxide ion,

This will increase the concentration of hydroxide ions (present of product side), the system will try to decrease its concentration by shifting towards reactant side.

Thus the solubility of MnS will decrease on addition of KOH solution.

Buffer consists of undissociated acid (ha) and the ion made by dissociating the acid (a-). How does this system buffer a solutio
docker41 [41]

In buffer solution there is an equilibrium between the acid  HA and its conjugate base A⁻: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq).

When acid (H⁺ ions) is added to the buffer solution, the equilibrium is shifted to the left, because conjugate base (A⁻) reacts with hydrogen cations from added acid, according to Le Chatelier's principle: H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) ⇄ HA(aq). So, the conjugate base (A⁻) consumes some hydrogen cations and pH is not decreasing (less H⁺ ions, higher pH of solution).

A buffer can be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by either releasing or absorbing H⁺ in a solution.

Buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of the solution is relatively stable
