Write a chemical equation for HCl(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition. Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer.

HCl (l) + H₂O(l) →  H₃O⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

Explanation:

Arrhenius' acid-base concept indicates that a substance will be an acid when it produces in water hydrogen H⁺ ions or hydronium H₃O⁺ ions.

In turn, the substance will be base if when reacting in water it produces hydroxide ions (OH⁻)

The HCl reacts in water in order to produce hydronium ions and chlorides

plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food. plants use the raw materials of water, nutrients they absorb from soil, and carbon dioxide to make sugars the plant can use. energy from the sun and chlorophyll are also needed.
