Acids and Bases 1. Acidic solution: Contains more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ion. 2. Basic solution: Contains more hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions. 3. Arrhenius model: A model of acids and bases; states that an acid is a substance that contains hydrogen and ionizes to produce hydrogen ions in aqueous solution and a base is a substance that contains a hydroxide group and dissociates to produce a hydroxide ion in aqueous solution. 4. Bronsted-Lowry model: A model of acids and bases in which an acid is a hydrogen-ion donor and a base is a hydrogen ion acceptor. 5. Conjugate acid: The species produced when a base accepts a hydrogen ion from an acid. 6. Conjugate base: The species produced when an acid donates a hydrogen ion to a base. 7. Conjugate acid-base pair: Consists of two substances related to each other by the donating and accepting of single hydrogen ion. 8. Amphoteric: Describes water and other substances that act as both acids and bases. 9. Lewis model: A Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor and a Lewis base is an electron-pair donor. 10. Strong acid: An acid that ionizes completely in aqueous solution. 11. Weak acid: An acid that ionizes only partially in dilute aqueous solution. 12. Acid ionization constant: The value of the equilibrium constant expression for the ionization of a weak acid. 13. Strong base: A base that dissociates entirely into metal ions and hydroxide ions in aqueous solution. 14. Weak base: A base that ionizes only partially in dilute aqueous solution to form the conjugate acid of the base and hydroxide ion. 15. Base ionization constant: The value of the equilibrium constant expression for the ionization of the base. 16. Ion product constant for water: The value of the equilibrium constant expression for the self-ionization of water. 17. pH: The negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration of a
