Acids with a polyatomic ion that includes oxygen (e.g., HClO3)
Back
Neutral salt
Front
Contains the conjugate acid and base of a strong base and acid
Back
14.00
Front
= pH + pOH
Back
Weak acid (definition)
Front
A proton donor that does NOT completely dissociate in water
Back
Bronsted-Lowry base
Front
Proton (H+) acceptor
Back
pH
Front
expresses the acidity or alkalinity of a solution on a logarithmic scale, lower values are more acidic and higher values more alkaline. The pH is equal to −log [H+]
Back
Arrhenius base
Front
Generates hydroxide ions in aqueous solution
Back
Kw
Front
The equilibrium constant for the dissociation of water (1 x 10-14 at room temperature)
Back
Arrhenius acid
Front
Generates hydrogen or hydronium ions in aqueous solution
Back
Acid strength of oxyacids (number of oxygens)
Front
An oxyacid with more oxygen atoms is stronger than one with fewer (e.g. HClO is weaker than HClO3)
Back
Acid strength (atomic size)
Front
Acids with larger atoms tend to be stronger (e.g., HCl is stronger than HF)
