Study Notes
Brønsted-Lowry Acid-Base Definition
- An acid is a substance that donates a proton (H+).
- A base is a substance that accepts a proton (H+).
Requirements for Brønsted-Lowry Acids and Bases
- A Brønsted-Lowry acid must donate a proton (H+).
- A Brønsted-Lowry base must accept a proton (H+).
- The substance that does not involve proton donation or acceptance is NOT a Brønsted-Lowry acid or base.
Brønsted-Lowry Acid-Base Definition Requirements
- The Brønsted-Lowry acid-base definition requires both a proton donor (acid) and a proton acceptor (base).
