    Study Notes

    Acid-Base Reactions

    • When an acid reacts with a base, a salt and water are always formed.
    • Hydrochloric acid reacts with water to produce hydrogen ions (H+) and chloride ions (Cl-).

    Acid Classification

    • Acid molecules are classified as Arrhenius acids when not dissolved in water.
    • An acid is defined as a substance that donates a hydrogen ion (H+) in a reaction.

    Hydrogen Ions

    • Hydrogen ions (H+) in aqueous acids are highly reactive and will readily donate a proton.
    • In a reaction where an acid donates its H+ ions, the acid is commonly referred to as a proton donor.

    Acid-Base Properties

    • Acids and bases are described in terms of their ability to donate or accept protons (H+ ions).
    • Acids are characterized by their ability to donate H+ ions, while bases are characterized by their ability to accept H+ ions.

    Acid Behavior

    • When acid molecules are added to water, they dissociate into hydrogen ions (H+) and negatively charged ions.
    • An acid can be defined as a substance that releases H+ ions in aqueous solutions.
    • A hydrogen ion (H+) in aqueous acids is a positively charged ion formed when an acid donates a proton.

    Acid-Base Reaction Products

    • The reaction between an acid and a base always forms a salt and water.
