Answer:

1) correct

2) incorrect

3) correct

4)incorrect

Explanation:

1) A Lewis acid is a substance that accepts a nonbonding pair of electrons.

A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a substance that donates a proton H⁺

Since the donation of a proton involves the acceptance of a pair of electrons, every Bronsted-Lowry acid is also a Lewis acid.

2)A Lewis acid not necessarily needs to have a proton to be donated.

3) Conjugated acids of weak bases are strong acids and conjugated acids of strong bases are weak acids.

4)K⁺ comes from a strong base, therefore is does not have an acidic behaviour.

Based on the nature of acids;

  1. Every Bronsted-Lowry acid is also a Lewis acid is true.
  2. Every Lewis acid is also a Bronsted-Lowry acid is false
  3. Conjugate acids of weak bases produce more acidic solutions than conjugate acids of strong bases is true.
  4. K+ ion is acidic in water because it causes hydrating water molecules to become more acidic is false.

What are acids?

According to Bronsted-Lowry definition, acids are substances that donates protons.

According to Lewis, acids are chemical species that can accept an electron pair.

Considering the given statements;

  1. Every Bronsted-Lowry acid is also a Lewis acid is true because dibating protons involves accepting electron pairs
  2. Every Lewis acid is also a Bronsted-Lowry acid is false because not all Lewis acids donates protons
  3. Conjugate acids of weak bases produce more acidic solutions than conjugate acids of strong bases is true because weak bases produce strong acid conjugates while strong bases produce weak conjugate acids.
  4. K+ ion is acidic in water because it causes hydrating water molecules to become more acidic is false because it is produced from A strong base, hence has no acidic properties.
