Term
Definition
Alkaline   Means the same as BASE. A solution in which there are more OH- ions than H+ ions  
🗑
Arrhenius Acid   A substance 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 elements: Hydrogen and either Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, or Sulfur  
🗑
Oxyacid   An acid that is a compound of hydrogen and a polyatomic ion containing oxygen  
🗑
Strong Acid   An acid that ionizes completely in aqueous solution  
🗑
Weak Acid   An acid that does not ionize completely in aqueous solution  
🗑
Amphoteric   Any species that can react as either an acid or a base  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry Acid   A molecule or ion that is a proton donor  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry Acid-Base Reaction   The transfer of protons from one reactant (the acid) to another (the base)  
🗑
Bronsted-Lowry Base   A molecule or ion that is a proton acceptor  
🗑
Conjugate Acid   The species that is formed when a Bronsted-lowry base gains a proton  
🗑
Conjugate Base   The species that remains after a Bronsted-Lowry acid has given up a proton  
🗑
Diprotic Acid   An acid that can donate two protons per molecule, such as H2SO4  
🗑
Monoprotic Acid   An acid that can donate only one proton (hydrogen ion) per molecule. Example: HBr  
🗑
Polyprotic Acid   An acid that can donate more than one proton per molecule such as H2SO4 and H3PO4  
🗑
Triprotic Acid   An acid able to donate three protons per molecule such as H3PO4  
🗑
pH   The negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution  
🗑
pOH   The negative log of the hydroxide ion concentration of a solution  
🗑
Self-Ionization of Water   A process in which water molecules break apart to form hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions  
🗑
Neutralization   The reaction of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions to form water molecules  
🗑
Salt   An ionic compound  
🗑
End Point   The point in a titration at which an indicator changes color  
🗑
Equivilance Point   The point at which the two solutions used in a titration are present in equivalent amounts (H+ = OH-)  
🗑
Acid-Base Indicator   A compound whose color changes when the pH changes  
🗑
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  
🗑
Neutral   a substance that has an equal amount of hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion (H+ = OH-)  
🗑
