Term
Definition
hydronium ion (H3O+)   the predominant form of the proton in aqueous solution  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry acid   a substance (molecule or ion) that acts as a proton donor  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry base   A substance (molecule or ion) that acts as a proton acceptor  
🗑
amphiprotic   refers to the capacity of a substance to act as either an acid or a base  
🗑
conjugate base   a substance formed by the loss of a proton fro a Bronsted-Lowry acid  
🗑
conjugate acid   a substance formed by the addition of a proton to a Bronsted-Lowry base  
🗑
conjugate acid-base pair   An acid and a base, such as H2O and OH-, that differ only in the presence or absence of a proton  
🗑
autoionization   the process whereby water spontaneously forms low concentrations of H+(aq) and OH-(aq) ions by proton transfer from one water molecule to another  
🗑
ion-product constant   for water, K sub w is the product of the aquated hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion concentrations  
🗑
pH   the negative log in base 10 of the aquated hydrogen ion concentration : pH= -log[H+]  
🗑
acid-dissociation constant (K sub a)   an equilibrium constant that expresses the extent to which an acid transfers a proton to solvent water  
🗑
polyprotic acid   a substance capable of dissociating more than one proton in water  
🗑
base-dissociation constant (K sub b)   an equilibrium constant that expresses the extent to which a base reacts with solvent water, accepting a proton and forming OH-(aq)  
🗑
hydrolysis   a reaction with water. when a cation or an anion reacts with water, it changes the pH  
🗑
oxyacid   a compound in which one or more OH groups, and possibly additional oxygen atoms are bonded to a central atom  
🗑
carboxylic acid   a compound that contains the -- COOH functional group  
🗑
Lewis acid   an electron-pair acceptor  
🗑
Lewis base   an electron-pair donor  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
