Studied by 12 peoplearrhenius theory
acid donate [H+] and base donate [OH-]
bronsted-lowry theory
acid donates proton and base accepts proton
binary acid
hydrogen bonded to single atom
strong acids ionize ____ in water
completely
weak acids ionize ____ in water
slightly
a weakly bonded hydrogen makes a ____ acid
strong
a strongly bonded hydrogen creates a ____ acid
weak
oxacids
acids that contain hydrogen, oxygen, and another element
strength of oxacids is determined by…
electronegativity of central atom and amount of oxygens per hydrogens in formula
polyprotic acids
acids that ionize more than once
anhydrides
acidic and basic anhydrides are compounds that become common acids and bases when added to water
neutralization reactions
occur when acids and bases react; produces a salt and water
amphiprotic
substance that both gains and loses protons
amphoteric
substance that can act as an acid and a base
Kw
autoionization constant of water
pH equation
pH = -log[H+]
Kw equation related to Ka and Kb
Kw = (Ka)(Kb)
sum of pH and pOH is always…
14
Buffer solution
weak acid or base with it’s salt
Henderson-Hasselbalch equation
pH = pKa + log([A-] /[HA])
