| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Acid Taste | sour |

| Acid Reaction | reacts with active metals & produces H2 gas |
| Acid Electrolyte | yes-conducts |
| Acid Corrosive | yes-eats away |
| Base Taste | bitter |
| Base Feel | slippery |
| Base Reaction | does not react |
| Base Electrolyte | yes-conducts |
| Base Corrosive | yes-eats away |
| Blue Litmus | turns read in acid (B.R.A.) // stays blue in base |
| Red Litmus | stays red in acid // turns blue in base (RB2) |
| Phenolphtalein | clear/cloudy in acid // pink/magenta in base |
| Arrhenius In Acid | produces H+ ions in a solution |
| Arrhenius In Base | produces OH- ions in solution |
| Bronsted-Lowry In Acids | H+ donor (proton donor) |
| Bronsted-Lowry In Bases | H+ acceptor (proton acceptor) |
| Lewis In Acids | e- pair acceptor (incomplete octet) |
| Lewis In Bases | e- pair donor (central atom has unshared pair & non-metal ions) |
| Elements With Incomplete Octets | group 13 & metal ions |
| Monoprotic vs Diprotic vs Triprotic | mono: 1 ionizable hyrdogen // di: 2 ionizable hydrogen // tri: 3 ionizable hydrogens |
| Strong vs Weak Acids | strong 100% ionize & weak partially ionize |
| Strong vs Weak Bases | strong 100% dissociate & weak partially dissociate |
| General Neutralization Reaction | acid + base = salt + water (salt is an ionic compund) |
| Amphoteric | can act as an acid or a base |
| Conjugate Acid | base H+ acceptor // what is formed after the base gains an H+ |
| Conjugate Base | acid H+ donor // what is formed after the acid loses an H+ |
| Determining Reaction Direction | RXN will move away from the stronger acid (strength chart) |
| Strong Acids Names | hydrodic acid, perchloric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, chloric acid, nitric acid |
| Strong Acid Formulas | HI, HCLO4, HBr, HCl, H2SO4, HClO3, HNO3 |

| Binary Acid | an acid that contains only two different elements (prefix: hydro & suffix: ic) |
| Oxyacid | an acid that is a compound of hydrogen, oxygen, & a third element (usually a non-metal) |
| The Stronger An Acid... | the weaker the conjugate base |
| Proton-Transfer Reactions Favor... | the production of the weaker acid and the weaker base |
| The 'pH' Equations | Kw=[H+][OH-]=1.00x10^-14 // [H+]=10^-pH // [OH-]=10^-pOH // pH=-log[H+] // pOH=-log[OH-] // 14=pH+pOH |

| On A Graph, The Equivalence Point Is Found... | in the middle of the straight line |
| Two Major Zones In A Titration Curve | volume of base (base added to acid solution) & pH (pH electrode placed in acid solution) |
| Indicators Are Made From... | color-changing compound based on the pH of the solution |
| Titration | controlled neutralization reaction to determine unknown acid or base |
| A Strong Acid And A Strong Base Make... | a neutral salt |
| A Strong Acid And A Weak Base Make... | an acidic salt |
| A Weak Acid And A Strong Base Make... | a basic salt |
| pH<7 | acid |
| pH=7 | neutral |
