| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Arrhenius acid | H+ generater in solutions |
| Arrhenius base | OH- generator in solutions |
| Brosnted-Lowry acid | H+ donor |
| Bronsted-Lowry base | H+ acceptor |
| Lewis acid | e- pair acceptor |
| Lewis base | e- pair donor |
| strong acid and base | completely dissociated and reactions use a single arrow |
| weak acids and bases | partially dissociate and reaction uses on equilibrium arrow |
| the strong acids | HCL, HBr, HI, HNO3, HCLO3, HCLO4, H2SO4 |
| the strong bases | LiOH, NaOH, KOH, RbOH, CsOH, Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, Ba(OH)2 |
| monoprotic acids | acids that contain only one ionizable proton |
| conjugate acid-base pairs | two substances related to each other by a single proton (H+) |
| conjugate base | an acid that donates a proton |
| conjugate acid | a base that accepts a proton |
| amphoteric substance | can act as an acid or base |
| autoionization | when pure water reacts as both an acid and a base within itself |
| ion product constant for water | Kw = [H3O+] [OH-] = 1.0x10^-14 |
| neutral | when [H3O+] = [OH-] or when pH = 7 |
| acidic | when [H3O+] > [OH-] or when pH < 7 |
| basic | when [H3O+] < [OH-] or when pH is > 7 |
| how to calculate pH | -log[H3O+] |
| how to calculate pOH | -log[OH-] |
| salt | formed during an acid-base neutralizing reaction |
| what is the pH when the cation nor the anion act as an acid | nuetral |
| what is the pH when the cation does not act as an acid, but the anion acts as a base | basic |
| what is the pH when the cation acts as an acid, but the anion does not act as a base | acidic |
| polyprotic acids | contains two or more acidic protons that dissociate in sequential steps, each with a unique Ka value |
| binary acid | contains a hydrogen atom bonded to another atom |
| oxoacids | contain a hydrogen atom bonded to an oxygen atom, which is then bonded to another atom |
