NH3
HNO3
H2SO4
HClO

Respuesta :

Sulfurous Acid - H2SO3
Ammonia - NH3
Nitric Acid - HNO3
Sulfuric Acid - H2SO4
Hypochlorous Acid - HCIO

Answer: nitric acid : [tex]HNO_3[/tex]

sulfurous acid : [tex]H_2SO_3[/tex]

hypochlorous acid : [tex]HOCL[/tex]

ammonia : [tex]NH_3[/tex]

sulfuric acid: [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex]

Explanation:- Chemical formulas are the symbolic representation of the elements contained in a compound along with their relative proportions.

Acids are those substances which either donates hydrogen ions [tex](H^+)[/tex] when dissolved in water or accepts a pair of electrons.

Bases are those substances which either donates hydroxide ions [tex](OH^-)[/tex] when dissolved in water or donates a pair of electrons.

Thus nitric acid , sulphurous acid, hypochlorous acid and sulphuric acid are acids as they give [tex]H^+[/tex] ions in water and ammonia is a base it donates its lone pair of electrons.
