Brønsted-Lowry acid
a compound that donates a proton to another compound
Brønsted-Lowry base
a compound that accepts a proton
conjugate acid
substance formed when a base gains a proton
conjugate base
substance formed when an acid loses a proton
acid ionization
reaction involving the transfer of a proton from an acid to water, yielding hydronium ions and the conjugate base of the acid
base ionization
reaction involving the transfer of a proton from water to a base, yielding hydroxide ions and the conjugate acid of the base
amphiprotic
species that may either donate or accept a proton in a Bronstead-Lowry acid-base reaction
amphoteric
species that can act as either an acid or base
autoionization
the process in which like molecules react to yield ions
