    NaOH accepts a proton (H+) in a reaction.
  • Bases dissolve _____ and _____.
    Bases dissolve in water and produce OH- ions.
  • A compound that donates hydrogen ions to a solution is __________.
    A compound that donates hydrogen ions to a solution is an acid.
  • The conjugate acid of HPO4^2- is
    The conjugate acid of HPO4^2- is H2PO4-.
  • A 0.01 M solution of a substance has a pH of 2. What can you conclude about this substance?

    HBrO3 is a strong acid.
  • Identify all correct statements about the ionization of water.
    Water ionizes to form H+ (or H3O+) and OH- ions.
  • Strong acids and bases
    Strong acids and bases completely ionize in water.
  • When a solution has an equal number of hydrogen and hydroxide ions, the solution is considered:
    The solution is considered neutral.
  • When dissolved in water, an acid or a base breaks down into
    An acid or base breaks down into ions when dissolved in water.
  • Substances that can either take up hydrogen ions or release hydroxide ions into water are called
    Amphoteric substances.
  • When working with acids, always _____ to avoid chemical splattering.
    Always add acid to water to avoid chemical splattering.

    Wash at once with plenty of water.
  • Turn this molecule into its Brønsted-Lowry conjugate base.
    Remove a proton (H+) from the molecule to form its conjugate base.
  • Conjugate acid of NH3
    The conjugate acid of NH3 is NH4+.

    Yes, HNO3 is a strong acid.
  • Is oxygen a reactant or product?
    Oxygen can be either a reactant or product depending on the reaction.
  • Is HCO3- a strong acid?
    HCO3- is not a strong acid; it is a weak acid.
