  2. SN1CB mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sn1CB_mechanism

    In coordination chemistry, the S N 1cB (conjugate base) mechanism describes the pathway by which many metal amine complexes undergo substitution, that is, ligand exchange. Typically, the reaction entails reaction of a polyamino metal halide with aqueous base to give the corresponding polyamine metal hydroxide: [ 1 ]

  3. Conjugate (acid-base theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_(acid-base_theory)

    On the other hand, if a chemical is a weak acid its conjugate base will not necessarily be strong. Consider that ethanoate, the conjugate base of ethanoic acid, has a base splitting constant (Kb) of about 5.6 × 10 −10, making it a weak base. In order for a species to have a strong conjugate base it has to be a very weak acid, like water.

  4. Acid–base reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid–base_reaction

    The removal of H + from the HCl produces the chloride ion, Cl −, the conjugate base of the acid. The addition of H + to the H 2 O (acting as a base) forms the hydronium ion, H 3 O +, the conjugate acid of the base. Water is amphoteric – that is, it can act as both an acid and a base.

    4 NaNH 2 + 5 O 2 → 4 NaOH + 4 NO + 2 H 2 O 4 NaNH 2 + 7 O 2 → 4 NaOH + 4 NO 2 + 2 H 2 O. In the presence of limited quantities of air and moisture, such as in a poorly closed container, explosive mixtures of peroxides may form. [28] This is accompanied by a yellowing or browning of the solid.

  6. Henderson–Hasselbalch equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henderson–Hasselbalch...

    A simple buffer solution consists of a solution of an acid and a salt of the conjugate base of the acid. For example, the acid may be acetic acid and the salt may be sodium acetate . The Henderson–Hasselbalch equation relates the pH of a solution containing a mixture of the two components to the acid dissociation constant , K a of the acid ...

  7. Lithium amide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_amide

    The conjugate bases of amines are known as amides. Thus, a lithium amide may also refer to any compound in the class of the lithium salt of an amine.These compounds have the general form LiNR 2, with the chemical lithium amide itself as the parent structure.

  8. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

    A Lewis base is often a Brønsted–Lowry base as it can donate a pair of electrons to H +; [11] the proton is a Lewis acid as it can accept a pair of electrons. The conjugate base of a Brønsted–Lowry acid is also a Lewis base as loss of H + from the acid leaves those electrons which were used for the A—H bond as a lone pair on the ...

  9. Deprotonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deprotonation

    A conjugate base is formed when the acid is deprotonated by the base. In the image above, hydroxide acts as a base to deprotonate the carboxylic acid. The conjugate base is the carboxylate salt. In this case, hydroxide is a strong enough base to deprotonate the carboxylic acid because the conjugate base is more stable than the base because the ...
