Bronsted Lowry

100

According to Bronsted-Lowry Theory, an acid is a substance that (donates/accepts) protons.

An acid is a substance that donates protons.

200

When a base accepts a proton, what does it become?

A conjugate acid. 

300

What kind of acid is this? 

Ms. K did not want to pay $20 for Jeopardy, so it is on the slide deck. 

Triprotic Acid

400

Name one amphoteric substance and what makes it amphoteric.

Amphoteric substance are able to donate and accept protons. They can act as acids and bases. Ex. Water

500

Why is acetic acid (CH₃COOH) classified as a monoprotic acid even though it has multiple hydrogens?

Because only one hydrogen atom (bonded to the oxygen) is ionizable.
