Comparing atoms within the same period (row) of the periodic table:
-the more electronegativeatom is more capable of stabalizing the " - " charge.
- The largeratom is more capable of stabalizing the " - " charge.
Resonance capability
Delocalization of the " - " charge spreads it out over a larger area and hence stabalizes it better than a localized charge.
Induction effect
Electron withdrawing atoms (highly electronegative), which are not conjugated with the " - " charge of the compound, withdraw electron density away from the charge and thus stabalize it.
Orbital where charge (electrons) resides
The more s-orbital character in the orbital carrying the " - " charge, the more stabilized it is by the nucleus (closer to core) making it the stable anion.
Acid-Base Reactions: which side will the reaction favor?
The side with the weaker acid.
Bronsted-Lowry Acid:
A proton donor.
Bronsted-Lowry Base:
A proton acceptor.
