acid and bases Flashcards
1
Q
Bronsted-lowry acid
A
proton donor
2
Q
Bronsted-lowry base
A
proton acceptor
3
Q
proton donor
A
BL- acid
4
Q
proton acceptor
A
BL-base
5
Q
lewis acid
A
electron pair acceptor
6
Q
lewis base
A
electron pair donor
7
Q
lewis def
A
more broad, bc sometimes H aren’t involved
- Lewis bases donate electrons
8
Q
bases
A
accept protons and/or donate their electron pair
9
Q
acids
A
donate protons and/oraccept an electron pair ( think of HCL–> when the proton gets picked up–> it leaves with no electrons and so the Cl with 3 lone pairs and one H becomes Cl with 4 lone pairs ( it gained an electron )
10
Q
amphoteric species
A
can REACT with both acid or base depending on the environment
- water most common example
11
Q
amphiprotic
A
can donate or accept a proton (narrower term than amphoteric)
