The species among the following, which can act as an acid and a base isA. `HSO_(4)^(-)`B. `SO_(4)^(2-)`C. `H_(3)O^(+)`D. `Cl^(-)`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
The species which cab accept as well as donate `H^(+)` can act both as an acid and a base.
`underset("base")(HSO_(4)^(-)) + H^(+) hArr H_(2)SO_(4)`.
`underset("acid")(HSO_(4)^(-) hArr SO_(4)^(2-) + H^(+)`.
