What is the C5H5N reacting with? The question doesn't provide the other reactant.

the basic equilibrium equation for C₅H₅N including the proper phases for all species within the reaction is:

C5H5N (aq) + H2O (l) ------> C5H5NH^+ (aq) + OH^- (aq)

Where did you get H2O as the other reactant? How do we know it didn’t react with, for example CH3COOH?
