Brønsted-Lowry acid
a molecule that donates a proton
Brønsted-Lowry base
a molecule that accepts a proton
Brønsted-Lowry conjugate acid
a base that accepted a proton
Brønsted-Lowry conjugate base
when an acid donates a proton
lower pKa =
stronger acid
weaker conjugate base
higher pKa =
weaker acid
equilibrium favors…
weaker acid and weaker base
stronger acid = (stability level)
more stable conjugate base
lewis acid
a molecule that accepts a pair of electrons
a lewis base
a molecule that donates a pair of electrons
pka > pH =
the group will be pronated
pka < pH
the group will be deprotonated
