. The concepts of acid-base equilibria were developed in this chapter for aqueous solutions (in aqueous solutions, water is the solvent and is intimately involved in the equilibria). However, the Brønsted-Lowry acid-base theory can be extended easily to other solvents. One such solvent that has been investigated in depth is liquid ammonia. NH3. a. Write a chemical equation indicating how HCl behaves as an acid in liquid ammonia. b. Write a chemical equation indicating how OH- behaves as a base in liquid ammonia.
