this is used to describe the acidity (concentration of positively charged hydrogen ions) of a solution

A

pH scale

23
Q

The more readily the compound donates a proton, the?

A

stronger the acid

24
Q

these contain a lone pair of electrons or a pi bond

A

all bronsted-lowry base

25
Q

bases that the net charge may be zero or (-)

A

bronsted-lowry bases

26
Q

A

The Lewis Definition

27
Q

Proton donor

A

bronsted-lowry acid

28
Q

the acidity of H-A increases when the conjugate base A is resonance stabilized

A

resonance effects

29
Q

An acid can be deprotonated by the conjugate base of any acid having a?

A

higher pKa

30
Q

from left to right, acidity increases as the electronegativity _________________

A

increases

31
Q

The ______________ the electronegativity, the stronger the inductive effect

A

stronger

32
Q

Structural effects on acidity and basicity of organic molecules

A

The Brønsted–Lowry Definition

33
Q

a lewis acid is also called an ________ or electron deficient

A

electrophile

34
Q

the closer the electronegative atom to the hydrogen, the stronger the?

A

acid

35
Q

this is due to differences in electronegativity (EN), the intrinsic ability of an atom to attract the shared electrons in a covalent bond

A

bond polarity

36
Q

a weaker conjugate base means a more?

A

stable conjugate base

37
Q

this is broader and more encompassing than the Bronsted-Lowry definition because it is not limited to substances that donate or accept protons only.

A

lewis definition of acids and bases

38
Q

these are structurally the same as Brønsted–Lowry bases. Both have an available electron pair—a lone pair or an electron pair in a π bond.

A

lewis bases

39
Q

measure of the tendency of a compound to give up a proton

A

acidity

40
Q

the stronger the acid, the weaker its?

A

conjugate base
