Arrhenius Acids and Bases
The taste of acids.
What is sour?
We think of them moving between Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases.
What are protons?
"R" in OIL RIG stands for this.
What is reduction?
The proper name for a row in the periodic table.
What is a period?
Light is frequently emitted when one of these transitions to lower energy.
What are electrons?
The taste of bases.
What is bitter?
What Bronsted-Lowry bases are in relation to protons.
What are acceptors?
This can be thought of as an increase in oxidation number.
What is oxidation?
The right formula for the compound made of vanadium and oxygen.
What is V2O5?
A packet or particle of light or other electromagnetic radiation.
What is a photon?
Both acids and bases do this because of their ions.
What is conduction of electricity?
It is a base that dissociates completely in water.
What is a strong base?
This is what happens to an atom's electrons when the atom is oxidized.
What is loss?
The kind of bond that forms between a metal and a nonmetal.
What is an ionic bond?
An electron can be found in more than one of these, depending on the amount of energy it has.
What are energy levels or electron shells?
They turn red litmus paper blue.
What are bases?
It acts as an acid in the reaction:
HCO3- + H2O ---> HCO32- + H3O+
What is HCO3-?
It is a place near and dear to all where many types of redox reactions occur.
What is the human body?
The reason that electrons like to move to fill up or empty out an electron shell.
What is stability?
The colors of light that have the highest energy and the highest frequency.
What are violets?
Not all Arrhenius bases have this.
What is OH- ion?
What a Bronsted-Lowry acid becomes after it gives away protons and now can take them back?
It is the element that is reduced in the reaction: Fe (s) + O2 (g) ---> Fe2O3 (s)
What is oxygen?
The name for a number we place in front of a molecule when balancing reactions.
What is a coefficient?
The principle that electrons only have certain discrete amounts of energy.
What is quantization?
