Arrehenius Acids
Produce H+ ions in water
Have a sour taste
Turn litmus red
HCl-->H+ + Cl-
Arrhenius Bases
Produce OH- ions in water
Are soapy and slippery
Taste bitter or chalky
Turn litmus blue
Bronsted-Lowry Acids
Donate a proton (H+)
HCl + H2O <-> H3O+ + Cl-
HCl is the acid that donates H+
Bronsted-Lowry Bases
Accept a proton (H+)
NH3 + H2O <-> NH4+ + OH-
NH3 is the base that accepts H+
Conjugate Acid-Base Pairs
\/----------------\/
HA + B <-> A- + BH+
/\-----------------/\
Pairs are related by the loss and gain of H+
1 pair occurs in fwd direction other in rev
Strong Acids
HCLO4 ---> CB = CLO4-
H2SO4 ---> CB = HSO4
HI ---> CB = I-
HBr ---> CB = Br-
HCl ---> CB = Cl-
HNO3 ---> CB = NO3-
Strong Bases
Group 1A (alkali) and 2B (alkaline) Hydroxides
i.e.;
LiOH
NaOH
KOH
Mg(OH)2
Ca(OH)2
pH at equivalent point
