What is hydrochloric acid (HCl)?

A strong acid that completely dissociates in water and is commonly used in labs.

100

What is salt and water?

Acid + base

100

What is the Bronsted-Lowry theory?

This theory defines acids as substances that donate protons (H⁺).

100

What is an acid?

Substance with pH < 7

200

What is sulfuric acid?

H₂SO₄

200

What is sodium hydroxide (NaOH)?

A strong base that fully dissociates and contains a Group 1 metal.

200

What is neutralization?

Name of this reaction

200

What is the Arrhenius theory?

This theory defines bases as substances that produce OH⁻ in aqueous solution.

200

What is a base?

Substance with pH > 7

300

What is sodium hydroxide?

NaOH

300

What is acetic acid (CH₃COOH)?

A weak acid found in vinegar that partially dissociates in water.

300

What is NaCl + H₂O?

HCl + NaOH

300

What is a proton (H⁺) acceptor?

a base is defined as this type of particle interaction.

300

What is the pH scale?

Scale measuring acidity

400

What is nitric acid?

HNO

400

What is a neutral solution?

A substance with equal concentrations of H⁺ and OH⁻ ions.

400

What is salt?

Product of neutralization

400

What is produce H⁺ ions?

an acid must do this in water.

400

What is H⁺?

Ion released by acids

500

What is potassium hydroxide? 

KOH

500

What is 0–3?

The typical pH range of strong acids on the pH scale.

500

What is 7?

pH after neutralization

500

What is Bronsted-Lowry?

NH₃ acts as a base because it accepts a proton to form NH₄⁺ under this theory.

500

What is OH⁻?

Ion released by bases
