Acidic Basic Neutral HC4H4O6- CO32- Na+ NH4+ НРО2- CI- Zn2+ PO43- NO3- Fe3+ HČO3- Ca2+ H2PO4- K+ In the above table are some ions that have been categorized as acidic, basic or neutral after making pH measurements, similar to how we conducted this experiment. It is expected firstly that neutral ions are conjugates of strong acids or bases, secondly that acidic ions are cations and thirdly that basic ions are anions. Do the above data support these expectations? Identify and discuss any apparent exceptions.

Two students were asked to determine the Kb of an unknown base. They were given a bottle with a solution in it. The bottle was labeled aqueous solution of a monoprotic strong acid. They were also given a pH meter, a buret, and an appropriate indicator. They reported the following data: volume of acid required for neutralization = 21.0 mL pH after 7.00 mL of strong acid added = 8.95 Use the students' data to determme the Kb of the unknown base.

1. Which of the following can act as a Lewis acid? (Hint : In each case, draw the Lewis electron dot structure of the molecule or ion. Are there lone pairs of electrons on the central atom? If so, it can be a Lewis base. Does the central atom lack an electron pair? If so, it can behave as a Lewis acid.) PH3 BCl3 H2S HS−
