Term
Properties of Acids
Definition
Sour taste-lemons, asprins
Acids contain hydrogen (react with metals to give H2)
Acids change color dyes (acid/base indicators)
Acids react with bases to produce "salts" and water
Acids are electrolytes (will conduct electricity in water)
Term
Traditional (Arrhenius) Acids
Definition
Contan H and ionize to form H+

HNO3 + H2O --> H30+ + NO3-
Term
Bronsted Acids
Definition
Molecue or ion that is proton donor

HCl + H2O --> H3O+ + Cl-
(Bronsted/ Arrhenius Acid)

HCl + NH3 --> NH4+ + Cl-
(Bronsted Acid ONLY)

H2O + NH3 --> NH4+ + OH-
(Bronsted Acid ONLY)

Hydrogen Periodate--Periodic Acid
Hydrogen Hypobromite--Hypobromous Acid
Hydrogen Dichromate--Dichromic Acid
Term
Properties of Bases
Definition
Bases have a bitter taste
Dilute aqueous solutions of bases feel slippery
Bases change the color of dyes (acid/base indicators)
Bases react with acids to produce "salts" and water.
Bases are electrolytes (will conduct electricity in solution)
Term
Traditional (Arrhenius) Base
Definition
Substance that contains hydroxide ions (OH-) and dissociates to give hydroxide ions in aqueous solution, ionic compound (metal hydroxide) alkaline solution--basic solution
Term
Bronsted Base
Definition
Molecule or ion that is proton acceptor

HCl + NH3 --> NH4+ +Cl
(HCl-Bronsted Acid/ NH3-Bronsted Base)
Term
Strong Base
Definition
Strong electrolyte, Group I and II metal with hydroxide
Term
Weak Base
Definition
Ammonia (NH3) produces low concentration of OH-
Term
Conjugate Acid
Definition
Species formed when Bronsted base gains a proton
Term
Conjugate Base
Definition
Species that remains after a Bronsted acid has given up a proton
Term
HA + B <--> HB+ + A-
Definition
Bronsted Acid + Bronsted Base <--> Conjugate Acid + Conjugate base
Term
HF + H2O <--> H3O+ + F-
Definition

Definition
Bronsted Acid (WEAK) + Bronsted Base (WEAK) <--> Conjugate Acid (STRONGER) + Conjugate Base (STRONGER)
Term
HClO4 + H2O <--> H30+ + ClO4-
Definition
Bronsted Acid (STRONGER) + Bronsted Base (STRONGER) <--> Conjugate Acid (WEAK) + Conjugate Base (WEAK)
Term
Conclusions from Bronsted definitions of acids and bases
Definition
Stronger Acid---Weaker conjugate base
Stronger Base---Weaker conjugated acid

Proton transfer reactions favor production of the weaker acid and the weaker base
