• A)HSO₄^- acts as an acid, \(\mathrm { H } _ { 2 }\) O acts as a base,O \(\mathrm { H } ^ { - }\) acts as an acid, \(\mathrm { H } _ { 2 }\) S \(\mathrm { O } _ { 4 }\) acts as a base.
• B)HSO₄^- acts as an base, \(\mathrm { H } _ { 2 }\) O acts as a acid,O \(\mathrm { H } ^ { - }\) acts as an acid, \(\mathrm { H } _ { 2 }\) S \(\mathrm { O } _ { 4 }\) acts as a base.
• C)HSO₄^- acts as an acid, \(\mathrm { H } _ { 2 }\) O acts as a base,O \(\mathrm { H } ^ { - }\) acts as an base, \(\mathrm { H } _ { 2 }\) S \(\mathrm { O } _ { 4 }\) acts as a acid.
• D)HSO₄^- acts as an base, \(\mathrm { H } _ { 2 }\) O acts as a acid,O \(\mathrm { H } ^ { - }\) acts as an base, \(\mathrm { H } _ { 2 }\) S \(\mathrm { O } _ { 4 }\)
