solubility of solid in liquid tends to _________ in increasing T
increase
solubility of gas in liquid tends to ___________ in increasing T
Decrease
solubility of gas in liquid tends to ___________ in increasing P
increase
According to Bronsted-Lowry, acids are ________ and bases are _______
Acids are proton donors and bases are proton acceptors
According to Lewis, acids are ___________ bases are ___________
acids are electron acceptors and bases are electron donors
Name the 6 common strong acids
HI (hydrogen iodide), HBr (hydrogen bromide), HCl (hydrochloric acid), HClO4 (perchloric acid), H2SO4 (sulfuric acid), HNO3 (nitric acid)
Name the common strong bases
Group 1 hydroxides (ex: NaOH), Group 2 oxides (ex: Li2O), Ba(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, Ca(OH)2 look at their location on periodic table, metal amides (ammonia but with something else, ex: NaNH2)
Define polyprotic and give an example
Acid that has more than one proton to donate (ex: H2CO3)
Define amphoteric and give an example
can be a conjugate base but can also be an acid and donate another H - always the result of a weak polyprotic acid
