  2. Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brønsted–Lowry_acid...

    Because DMSO accepts protons more strongly than H 2 O the acid becomes stronger in this solvent than in water. [11] Indeed, many molecules behave as acids in non-aqueous solutions but not in aqueous solutions. An extreme case occurs with carbon acids, where a proton is extracted from a C−H bond. [12] Some non-aqueous solvents can behave as acids.

  3. HSAB theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSAB_theory

    An alternative quantitative measure is the heat of formation of the Lewis acid-base adduct in a non-coordinating solvent. The ECW model is quantitative model that describes and predicts the strength of Lewis acid base interactions, -ΔH . The model assigned E and C parameters to many Lewis acids and bases.

  4. Acid–base reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid–base_reaction

    In chemistry, an acid–base reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs between an acid and a base.It can be used to determine pH via titration.Several theoretical frameworks provide alternative conceptions of the reaction mechanisms and their application in solving related problems; these are called the acid–base theories, for example, Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory.

  5. Base (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    A Lewis base or electron-pair donor is a molecule with one or more high-energy lone pairs of electrons which can be shared with a low-energy vacant orbital in an acceptor molecule to form an adduct. In addition to H + , possible electron-pair acceptors (Lewis acids) include neutral molecules such as BF 3 and high oxidation state metal ions such ...

  6. Fluoroantimonic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoroantimonic_acid

    Fluoroantimonic acid is a mixture of hydrogen fluoride and antimony penta­fluoride, containing various cations and anions (the simplest being H 2 F + and Sb F − 6).This mixture is a superacid that, in terms of corrosiveness, is trillions of times stronger than pure sulfuric acid when measured by its Hammett acidity function.

  7. Acid strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_strength

    Acid strength is the tendency of an acid, symbolised by the chemical formula, to dissociate into a proton, +, and an anion, .The dissociation or ionization of a strong acid in solution is effectively complete, except in its most concentrated solutions.

    PEN America's latest report details the damage that book bans do to authors. 'Matrix' novelist Lauren Groff is on the front lines with plans to open a Florida bookshop.

  9. Electrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte

    [1] [2] [3] This includes most soluble salts, acids, and bases, dissolved in a polar solvent like water. Upon dissolving, the substance separates into cations and anions, which disperse uniformly throughout the solvent. [4] Solid-state electrolytes also exist. In medicine and sometimes in chemistry, the term electrolyte refers to the substance ...
