Every Lewis acid is also a Brønsted-Lowry acid, and every Brønsted-Lowry acid is an Arrhenius acid; thus, H₂SO₄ is all three, since it is an Arrhenius acid: (it dissolves in water to produce a proton). Sulfuric acid is also considered a strong acid, as it full dissociates in water.

Conjugate acid has one more H+ than the compound with which it is being compared. Thus, H2CO₃ is the conjugate acid of HCO_3–.

The PRODUCTS of a neutralization reactions are salt and water, not the reactants. The rest of the options all correctly pertain to neutralization reactions.

Bases can be defined as species that quench hydrogen ions from a solution. A hydroxide ion and a hydrogen ion combine to form water in solution. Recall that basis solutions range in pH from about 7 to 14.

Acids can be defined as species that donate hydrogen ions to solutions. If there is a hydrogen group on a molecule, it is possible that it may be donated to the solution, which will result in a decrease in pH. 

The Bronsted-Lowry definition of an acid is a substance that can donate a hydrogen ion and forms its conjugate base; a Bronsted-Lowry base accepts a hydrogen ion and forms its conjugate acid. Thus we are looking for a substance that can either donate or accept a hydrogen ion (amphoteric). Bisulfite may give up a proton to become , a Bronsted-Lowry base. It acts as an acid as , which can donate up to two hydrogens.

For this question, we'll need to understand the different definitions of an acid in order to answer it. There are three definitions of acids that are important to know.

1. Arrhenius acids

These are compounds that, when added to water, increase the concentration of  ions present in solution.

2. Bronsted-Lowry acids

These are any acid that can release , even while not in water.

3. Lewis acids

This is the most general definition of acids. It is any compound that can accept a lone electron pair.

Lewis acids are the most general kind of acids, meaning that any acid that is Bronsted-Lowry or Arrhenius will also be a Lewis acid. However, the reverse is not true. Not all Lewis acids will fall under the category of Bronsted-Lowry or Arrhenius.

The correct answer in this question is aluminum chloride. We can see that, based on aluminum's position in the periodic table, it has three valence electrons in its outer shell. Each of these electrons is tied up in a shared bond with a chloride. This means that the aluminum in aluminum chloride has six valence electrons. However, since aluminum has a maximum capacity of eight valence electrons, it has room for two more. This vacancy allows the aluminum component of aluminum chloride to accept an electron pair from any sort of electron donor. Thus, aluminum chloride qualifies as a Lewis acid. However, aluminum chloride has no way of producing . Consequently, it is neither a Bronsted-Lowry acid nor is it an Arrhenius acid.

This question is simply testing your memorization of strong and weak acids. Of the list, you should recognize that nitric acid is the only strong acid, and the rest of the choices are weak. 

The Ka is the acid dissociation constant, and thus it is what determines how strong the acid is. Stronger acids dissociate to a greater extent and produce lower pH values.

In order to find the base dissociation constant for the conjugate base, we can start by finding the acid dissociation constant for the acid. Since a 1M solution of the acid has a pH of 4.6, we can find the proton concentration of the solution.

Since the acid is monoprotic, we can set the following equilibrium expression equal to its acid dissociation constant.

We can see that, since the acid is monoprotic, the concntration of protons will be equal to the concentration of the acid anion. The final concentration of the acid molecule will be equal to the initial concentration, minus the amount of protons formed. Using these values, we can solve for the equilibrium constant for the acid.

Now that we have the acid dissociation constant, we can find the conjugate base's dissociation constant by setting the product of the two values equal to the autoionization of water.
