A
Proton acceptor (H+ proton)
3
Q
What are monoprotic acids?
A
Acids that dissociate 1 H+ ion
4

A
Acid that dissociates 2 H+ ions
5
Q
What is the equation for pH?
A
- Log (H+)
6
Q
What is the equation for calculating the concentration of H+ ions?
A
[H+] = 10- pH
7
Q
What is the value of Kw?
A
1 x10-14 (therefore it is a constant at room temperature in all aqueous solutions)
