1. HCI + NH³ --> NH⁴ + CI
2. H²O + NH³ --> NH⁴ + OH -
3. H²O + CO² --> H²CO³
4. HNO³ + H²O --> H³O + NO³ -
5. H²SO⁴ + H²O --> H³O- + HSO⁴
Kindly answer properly, it would be much appreciated :)

Answer:
1. HCI + NH³ --> NH⁴ + CI
- Acid: HCI
- Base: NH³
- Lewis acid: HCI
- Lewis base: NH³
2. H²O + NH³ --> NH⁴ + OH -
- Acid: H²O
- Base: NH³
- Lewis acid: H²O
- Lewis base: NH³
3. H²O + CO² --> H²CO³
- Acid: H²O
- Base: CO²
- Lewis acid: H²O
- Lewis base: CO²
4. HNO³ + H²O --> H³O + NO³ -
- Acid: HNO³
- Base: H²O
- Lewis acid: HNO³
- Lewis base: H²O
5. H²SO⁴ + H²O --> H³O- + HSO⁴
- Acid: H²SO⁴
- Base: H²O
- Lewis acid: H²SO⁴
- Lewis base: H²O
Note: The Lewis acid is the electron pair acceptor, and the Lewis base is the electron pair donor. In the above reactions, acids donate protons (H⁺), while bases accept protons.
