Study Notes

Analytical Chemistry

  • Analytical chemistry is a measurement science, focusing on separating, identifying, and determining chemical substances.
  • Classification of analytical chemistry includes:
    • Quantitative analysis: determining the chemical identity of elements and compounds.
    • Qualitative analysis: determining the relative amounts of each substance in a sample.

Lewis Acid-Base Theory

  • Acids: Electron acceptors
  • Bases: Electron donors
  • A Lewis base is a substance containing an atom with unshared electron pairs (either -ve ions or molecules).
  • A Lewis acid is a substance that accepts an electron pair (either +ve ions or molecules).
  • Acid-base reactions form adducts (coordinate covalent bonds)

Brønsted-Lowry Acid-Base Theory

  • Acids: Proton donors
  • Bases: Proton acceptors
  • An acid reaction with a base results in a conjugate acid and a conjugate base.
