Question
Answer
Dissociation   the separation of ions that occurs when an ionic compound dissolves  
🗑
Hydronium ion   the H3O+ ion  
🗑
Ionization   the formation of ions from solute molecules by the action of the solvent; any process that results in the formation of an ion  
🗑
Strong electrolyte   any compound of which all or almost all of the dissolved compound exists as ions in aqueous solution  
🗑
Weak electrolyte   a compound of which relatively small amount of dissolved compound exists as ions in an aqueous sulition  
🗑
pH   the negative of the common logarithm of the hydronium ion concentration of a solution  
🗑
pOH   the negative of the common logarithm of the hydroxide ion concentration of a solution  
🗑
Acid base indicator   a compound whose color is sensitive to pH  
🗑
Titration   the controlled addition and measurement of the amount of a solution of known concentration required to react completely with a measured amount of a solution of unknown concentration  
🗑
End point   the point in a titration at which an indicator changes color  
🗑
Equivalence point   the point at which the two solutions used in a titration are present in chemically equivalent amounts  
🗑
Alkaline   a solution in which a base has completely dissociated in water to yield aqueous OH- ions  
🗑
Arrhenius Acids   a chemical compound that increases the concentration of hydrogen ions, H+, in aqueous solution  
🗑
Arrhenius Base   a substance that increases the concentration of hydroxide ions, OH-, in aqueous solution  
🗑
Binary acid   an acid that contains only two different elements: hydrogen and one of the more-electronegative elements  
🗑
Strong acid   an acid that ionizes completely in aqueous solution  
🗑
Weak acid   an acid that is a weak electrolyte  
🗑
Amphoteric   any species that can react as either an acid or a base  
🗑
BrØnsted-Lowery base   a molecule or ion that is a proton acceptor  
🗑
BrØnsted-Lowery acid   a molecule or ion that is a proton donor  
🗑
Lewis acid-base reaction   the transfer of protons from one reactant (the acid) to another (the base)  
🗑
Lewis acid   an atom, ion, or molecule that accepts an electron pair to form a covalent bond  
🗑
Lewis base   an atom, ion, or molecule that donates an electron pair to form a covalent bond  
🗑
Diprotic acid   an acid that can donate two protons per molecule  
🗑
Monoprotic acid   an acid that can donate only one proton (hydrogen ion) per molecule  
🗑
Polyprotic acid   an acid that can donate more than one proton per molecule  
🗑
Triprotic acid   an acid able to donate three protons per molecule  
🗑
Conjugate acid   the species that is formed when a BrØnsted-Lowry base gains a proton  
🗑
Conjugate base   the species that remains after a BrØnsted-Lowry acid has given up a proton  
🗑
Neutralization   the reaction of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions to form water molecules  
🗑
Salt   an ionic compound composed of a cation and the anion from an acid; an ionic compound composed of a cation from a base and an anion from an acid  
🗑
Oxyacid   an acid that is compound of hydrogen, oxygen, and a third element, usually a non-metal  
🗑
BrØnsted-Lowery reaction   the transfer of protons from one reactant (the acid) to another (the base)  
🗑
