2. List of chemistry mnemonics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemistry_mnemonics

   A mnemonic is a memory aid used to improve long-term memory and make the process of consolidation easier. Many chemistry aspects, rules, names of compounds, sequences of elements, their reactivity, etc., can be easily and efficiently memorized with the help of mnemonics.

3. Base (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_(chemistry)

   A strong base is a basic chemical compound that can remove a proton (H +) from (or deprotonate) a molecule of even a very weak acid (such as water) in an acid–base reaction. Common examples of strong bases include hydroxides of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, like NaOH and Ca(OH) 2, respectively. Due to their low solubility, some ...

4. Superbase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superbase

   Caubère defines superbases as "bases resulting from a mixing of two (or more) bases leading to new basic species possessing inherent new properties. The term superbase does not mean a base is thermodynamically and/or kinetically stronger than another, instead it means that a basic reagent is created by combining the characteristics of several ...

5. List of reagents - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_reagents

   a strong base; precursor to most soft and liquid soaps as well as numerous potassium-containing chemicals Potassium permanganate: a strong oxidizing agent; can be used to quantitatively determine the total oxidisable organic material in an aqueous sample; a reagent for the synthesis of organic compounds Pyridinium chlorochromate

6. Non-nucleophilic base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-nucleophilic_base

   Lithium tetramethylpiperidide (LiTMP or harpoon base) Other strong non-nucleophilic bases are sodium hydride and potassium hydride. These compounds are dense, salt-like materials that are insoluble and operate by surface reactions. Some reagents are of high basicity (pK a of conjugate acid around 17) but of modest but not negligible ...

7. Leveling effect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leveling_effect

   Similarly the strength of a strong base is leveled by the acidity of the solvent. When a strong acid is dissolved in water, it reacts with it to form hydronium ion (H 3 O +). [2] An example of this would be the following reaction, where "HA" is the strong acid: HA + H 2 O → A − + H 3 O + Any acid that is stronger than H 3 O + reacts with H ...

8. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

   A Lewis base is also a Brønsted–Lowry base, but a Lewis acid does not need to be a Brønsted–Lowry acid. The classification into hard and soft acids and bases ( HSAB theory ) followed in 1963. The strength of Lewis acid-base interactions, as measured by the standard enthalpy of formation of an adduct can be predicted by the Drago–Wayland ...

9. Category:Bases (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Bases_(chemistry)

   Bases are defined by the Brønsted–Lowry theory as chemical substances that can accept a proton, i.e., a hydrogen ion. In water this is equivalent to a hydronium ion). The Lewis theory instead defines a Base as an electron-pair donor. The Lewis definition is broader — all Brønsted–Lowry bases are also Lewis bases.
