solubility
a measure of how much solute can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature
Bronsted-Lowry Thoery
Theory of acids and bases that states that acids are compounds that donate H+ ions (protons) in a reaction and bases are the compounds that accepts H+ ions (protons) in the reaction.
Electrolytes
substances that conduct an electric current when they are dissolved in water.
Hydronium ion
A bare proton combined with a water molecule, H3O+
Lewis Theory
Theory of acids and bases that states that acids are electron pair acceptors and bases are electron pair donors.
oxyacid
any acid that contains oxygen
soluble
capable of being dissolved
Buffered solution
a solution that resists a change in its pH even when a strong acid or base is added to it
end point
the point in a titration at which an indicator changes color
conjugate acid
Particle formed when a base gains a hydrogen ion
pH meter
determines the pH of a solution by measuring the voltage between the two electrodes that are placed in the solution.
Strong acid
an acid that ionizes completely in aqueous solution
Titration
process in which a solution of known concentration is used to determine the concentration of another solution
disassociation
the process of ionic compounds breaking down into smaller ionic particles
unsaturated solution
any solution that can dissolve more solute at a given temperature
Salt
an ionic compound composed of a cation (+ion) from a base and an anion (-ion) from an acid
Anhydrous
refers to a substance that contains no water molecules
equivalence point
the point at which the two solutions used in a titration are present in chemically equivalent amounts
neutralization
reaction in which an acid reacts with a base and forms water and a salt
supersaturated solution
contains more solute than it can theoretically hold at a given temperature
polyprotic acid
an acid that can donate more than one proton (H+) per molecule. Can be diprotic (H2SO4) or triprotic (H3CO3)
solution
a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances uniformly dispersed throughout a single phase
solute
substance that is dissolved in a solvent to make a solution
net ionic equation
an equation for a reaction in solution showing only those particles that are directly involved in the chemical change
acid-base Indicator
a substance that changes in color depending on the pH of the solution that the substance is in.
Conjugate base
the particle that remains after an acid has donated a proton or hydrogen ion.
monoprotic acid
An acid that can donate only one proton (hydrogen ion) per molecule.
solvent
substance in which a solute is dissolved to form a solution
Tyndall effect
scattering of light by particles in a colloid or suspension, which causes a beam of light to become visible
Binary acid
an acid composed of only two elements, one of which is hydrogen
saturated solution
a mixture that contains as much dissolved solute as is possible at a given temperature
ionization
any process that results in the formation of an ion
Arrhenius Theory
Theory of acids and bases that states that acids are compounds that release H+ ions and bases are compounds that release OH- ions.
Weak base
A base that ionizes only slightly in a solution
electrolyte
a substance that dissolves in water to give a solution that conducts an electric current
Weak acid
An acid that does not completely disassociate into ions in a solution, eg acetic acid
suspension
a mixture in which particles can be seen and easily separated by settling or filtration
Spectator ions
are those ions present in a solution but not involved in a reaction.
Hydrolysis
a reaction between water and a salt to create an acid or a base
molarity
the number of moles of solute per liter of solution
pH
a measure of hydronium ion concentration equal to -log [H3O+] and ranging in value from 0 to 14.
concentration
the mass of solute in a given volume of solution, or mass/volume.
Amphoteric
A substance that can react as either an acid or a base
Standard solution
a solution whose concentration is accurately known
colloid
a mixture in which the particles are dispersed throughout but are not heavy enough to settle out
Ternary acid
an acid containing three elements.
