Chem Chapter 14 & 15 Flashcards
Properties of Bases
- turn litmus blue
- taste bitter
- are caustic
- slippery to touch
- are electrolytes ionize to yield OH ions conduct current=alkaline batteries
- burning produces gases such as NO1 NO2 CO2
- these gases dissolve in rain or snow to produce acid solutions
Acid Rain
Chemical compound that increase the connection of hydrogen ions in aqueous solutions
Arrhenius Acid
A chemical compound that increases the concentration of hydroxide ions in aqueous solutions
Arrhenius Base
One that ionizes completely resulting aqueous solution, are strong electrolytes
Strong Acids
Do not ionize completely resulting in an equilibrium between molecules and ions, are weak electrolytes
Weak acids
A base disscates completely yield OH=alkaline, strong electrolytes
Strong base
Bases not very solute in water, are weak electrolytes
Weak base
NOT limited to aqueous solution
Bronsted-Lowry
A molecule or ion that acts as a proton donor
Acid
A molecule or ion that acts as a proton acceptor
Base
Properties of Acids
- turns litmus red
- sour taste
- react with metals to yield H2=corrosive
- are electrolytes ionize to yield hydrogen ions and conducts current
- neutralize basses
The species that is formed when a Brønsted-Lowry base gains a proton
Conjugated Acid
The speeches that is formed when a Brønsted-Lowry acid loses a proton
Conjugated Base
Any species that can react as either an acid or base
Amphoteric
