HERE THE ANSWERS 👇
-
HBr is a monoprotic acid. NaHCO3 is a monoprotic base. Therefore, they react as follows:
NaHCO3(aq) + HBr(aq) —–> NaBr(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
The CO2 and H2O are formed from H2CO3, which is produced immediately after the acid-base reaction, but which is unstable and dissociates to said products.
