A. \({{\text{H}}_2}{\text{O}} + {\text{NH}}_4^ + \to {{\text{H}}_3}{{\text{O}}^ + } + {\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_3}\)
B. \({{\text{H}}_2}{\text{O}} + {\text{CaO}} \to {\text{C}}{{\text{a}}^{{\text{2}} + }} + {\text{2O}}{{\text{H}}^ - }\)
C. \({{\text{H}}_2}{\text{O}} + {{\text{[Fe(}}{{\text{H}}_2}{\text{O}}{{\text{)}}_6}{\text{]}}^{{\text{3}} + }} \to {\text{Fe[(OH)(}}{{\text{H}}_2}{\text{O}}{{\text{)}}_5}{{\text{]}}^{{\text{2}} + }} + {{\text{H}}_3}{{\text{O}}^ + }\)
