Write equations for the ionization of hno3 in water and the reaction of co32 - with water. for each equation, identify the hydrogen-ion donor and hydrogen-ion acceptor. then label the conjugate acid-base pairs in each equation.

Chemical reaction 1: HNO₃ (aq) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq).

Chemical reaction 2: CO₃²⁻ (aq) + H₂O (l) → HCO₃⁻ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq).

According to Bronsted-Lowry theory acid are donor of protons and bases are acceptors of protons (the hydrogen cation or H⁺).

In first reaction:

1) HNO₃ (nitric acid) is hydrogen-ion donor and water is hydrogen-ion acceptor.

2) HNO ₃ is acid and NO₃⁻ is conjugate base.

In second reaction:

1) water is hydrogen-ion donor and CO₃²⁻ hydrogen-ion acceptor.

2) CO₃²⁻ is base and HCO₃⁻ is conjugate acid.
