-
Electrolytes - a substance that releases hydrogen ions
-
Acid - A hydrogen nucleus or naked proton
-
Hydrogen Ion - They release hydrogen in solutions
-
Proton Donors - They take up hydrogen ions in decetable amounts
-
Bases or Proton Acceptors - An ion liberated in a hydroxide is dissolves in water
-
Hydroxyl Ion - A displacement reaction when you mix acids and bases to form water and salt

Monomors - Simple surgar (glucose, galactose,fructose)
-
Monosaccharides - Has a six carbon atom
-
Glucose - Has a six carbon sugar
-
Hexose - Have the same molecular formula but there atoms are arranged differently, which gives different chemical properties
