What is the common ion effect

the shift in equilibrium that occurs because of the addition of an ion already involved in the equilibrium reaction

100

What does the common ion effect so to molar solubility

it reduces molar solubility

100

what is a coordination number

the number of places on a metal where ligands are bound (usually 6 but can range from 2-16)

200

What is a complex ion

has a metal ion at its center with a number of other molecules and ions surrounding it

200

does the common ion effect effect Ka

no

200

what are lewis acids and bases

accepts lone pair electrons, donates lone pair electrons

300

What is a co-coordinate bond

covalent bond (shared pair of electrons) both electrons come form the same atom 

300

does pH effect solubility

yes, solubility increases when pH decreases and vice versa

300

what are oxoacids

have the hydrogen atoms in the acid bonded to oxygen. The more oxygen atoms there are in the acid the stronger the acid will be

400

What is a ligand

anions that function as lewis bases

400

What is effect of charge

it becomes more difficult to take a proton away from something that is already negative

400

formation constant

Kf

500

What is a spectator ion

doesnt participate in the reaction

500

why are frogs green

because of the food they consume

500

what is ionic potential 

the charge to radius ratio (q/r)
