Acids And Bases Flashcards
Acid
Proton donor
Base
Proton acceptor
Ionization
The reaction of a molecular substance with water to produce ions
Weak acid
And acid that only ionized partially in an aqueous solution
Dissociation
The splitting of an ionic compound into its ions
Strong base
A base that dissociates completely in an aqueous solution
Weak base
A base that only dissociates/ionizes partially in and aqueous solution
Amphiprotic
Substance that can act as either an acid or a base
Salt
A substance in which the hydrogen of an acid has been replaced by a cation
Hydrolysis
A reaction of an ion with water
Neutralization
The point where an acid and base have reacted so neither is in excess
Standard solution
Solution of known concentration
