(a) Identify the Brønsted acids and Brønsted bases
in this reaction. (b) What species correspond to H and OH and what is the condition for a neutral solution?

H2O + HOH ==> H2O^+ + OH^-
NH3 + HNH2 ==> NH4^+ + NH2^-
NH4+ is the acid.
NH2- is the base.
Neutral solution for H2O is for H+ = OH-
Neutral soln for NH3 is for NH4+ = NH2-
NH3 + HNH2 ==> NH4^+ + NH2^-
NH4+ is the acid.
NH2- is the base.
Neutral solution for H2O is for H+ = OH-
Neutral soln for NH3 is for NH4+ = NH2-
