Anyone know why NH4+ does not count as an acid? I thought by the Bronsted theory that NH4+ was a conjugate acid.

10 should be E, no?

Who said it doesn't count as an acid?
The answer to 2 is C, both HF and NH4+.

THe first anonymous is just dumb.

Vidur you are wrong on number 9
If you correctly calculate the percentage mass of carbon in E for problem 9, it comes out to be 91% which is less than the answer for choice C which is 92%.
9 is C

And then you write, that correct answer on 2 is B, lol.

Why in 6 correct answer is D ?
In C2H2 carbons are sp2 hybridized.
