Write the chemical reactions to show the amphoteric nature of water.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Water is amphoteric in nature because it acts as an acid.
`underset(Base 1)(H_(2)O_((l)))+underset(Acid 2)(H_(2)S_((aq)))tounderset(Acid 1)(H_(3)O_((aq))^(+))+underset(Base2)(HS_((aq))^(-))`
`underset(Acid 1)(H_(2)O_((l)))+underset(Base 2)(NH_(3(aq)))tounderset(Acid 2)(NH_(3)O_((aq))^(+))+underset(Base1)(OH_((aq))^(-))`
