Term
Definition
acidic solution   A solution with more H 3 O+ ions than OH- ions, resulting in a pH less than 7.  
🗑
acid-ionization constant   Related to the ionization constant of water, it is the value that describes the extent of the forward equilibrium reaction in the formation of the hydronium ion.  
🗑
amphoteric   A substance that can act as either a Bronsted-Lowry acid or base.  
🗑
Arrhenius acid   A substance that releases hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.  
🗑
Arrhenius base   A substance that releases hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water.  
🗑
base-ionization constant   Related to the ionization constant of water, the value that describes the extent of the forward equilibrium reaction in the formation of the hydroxide ion.  
🗑
basic solution   A solution with fewer H 3 O+ ions than OH- ions, resulting in a pH greater than 7; also called an alkaline solution.  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry acid   A substance that donates protons.  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry base   A substance that accepts protons.  
🗑
buffer   A solution that resists changes in pH when a moderate amount of either an acid or base is added.  
🗑
conjugate acid   The structure formed when a base is protonated.  
🗑
conjugate base   The structure formed when an acid has donated a proton.  
🗑
conjugate pair   Two particles that differ from each other by only a proton (a hydrogen ion).  
🗑
deprotonation   The process of losing a proton.  
🗑
diprotic   An acid that can donate two protons.  
🗑
electrolyte   A substance that releases ions and conducts electricity when it dissolves in water.  
🗑
end point   The point in a titration at which some change in a property of the solution is detected.  
🗑
equivalence point   The point in a titration at which an equivalent amount of titrant has been added. The number of H 3 O+ ions equals the number of OH- ions.  
🗑
indicator   A substance that changes color when the pH of a solution changes.  
🗑
ionization constant of water   In self-ionization, the product of the concentrations of the hydronium ion (H 3 O+) and the hydroxide ion (OH-); 1.0 x 10 -14 at 25 °C; also called the dissociation constant of water.  
🗑
Lewis acid   Any substance that can accept a pair of electrons.  
🗑
Lewis base   Any substance that can donate a pair of electrons.  
🗑
monoprotic   An acid that can donate only one proton.  
🗑
neutralization reaction   The reaction of an acid and a base to produce a neutral solution (pH=7) of water and a salt.  
🗑
neutral solution   A solution with equal numbers of H 3 O+ and OH- ions; pH=7.  
🗑
pH   A measure of the hydronium ion (H 3 O+) concentration. It is the negative logarithm of the molar H 3 O+ ion concentration: pH=-log (H 3 O+).  
🗑
pOH   A measure of the hydroxide ion (OH-) concentration. It is the negative logarithm of the molar OH- ion concentration: pOH=-log (OH-).  
🗑
polyprotic   An acid that can donate more than one proton per molecule.  
🗑
protonation   The process of gaining a proton.  
🗑
salt   An ionic compound formed from the cation of a base and the anion of an acid.  
🗑
self-ionization of water   A process in an acid-base reaction in which one molecule donates a proton to another molecule of the same substance; also called auto-ionization or autoprotolysis.  
🗑
strong acid   A substance that readily gives up protons and ionizes completely in an aqueous solution.  
🗑
strong base   A substance that readily accepts protons.  
🗑
titration   A controlled reaction (often neutralization) conducted to measure the capacity of a solution of unknown concentration to react with one of known concentration.  
🗑
titration curve   A graph that plots the pH change of a solution versus the volume of added acids or bases.  
🗑
transition interval   An indicator's range of pH values over which a color change occurs.  
🗑
triprotic   An acid that can donate three protons.  
🗑
weak acid   A substance that does not give up protons easily and does not ionize completely in an aqueous solution; a weak electrolyte.  
🗑
week base   A substance that is a poor proton acceptor and does not ionize completely in an aqueous solution; a weak electrolyte.  
🗑
