	Acid-base reaction theories - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When the elements chlorine, bromine, and iodine were identified and the absence of oxygen in the hydrohalic acids was established by Sir Humphry Davy in 1810, this definition had to be rejected.
		In general, an acid reacts with a base by forming a new covalent bond utilizing an empty orbital of the acid to share the extra electron pair of the base.
		From the perspective of Molecular Orbital theory, an acid-base reaction is the combination of HOMO from base and LUMO from acid to form a stable bonding molecular orbital.

	Conjugate acid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Within the Brønsted-Lowry (protonic) theory of acids and bases, a conjugate acid is the acid member, HX, of a pair of two compounds that transform into each other by gain or loss of a proton.
		Tabulated below are several examples of conjugate acid-base pairs.
		Acid strength decreases and base strength increases down the table.

	Acids and Bases
		Thus, during the course of the reaction in Figure 1.8, the acid (hydrogen chloride) is converted to its conjugate base (chloride ion), while the base (methanol) is converted to its conjugate acid (methyloxonium ion).
		Thus, for a strong acid such as hydrogen chloride (or hydrochloric acid), the conjugate base (chloride anion) is weak, while for a weak acid such as water, the conjugate base (hydroxide anion) is strong.
		As the elementv to which the acidic hydrogen is bonded becomes larger, the acid strength increases, and as the electronegativity of the element bonded to the acidic hydrogen increases, acid strength increases.

	Bronsted Acids and Bases
		The name "acid" comes from the Latin acidus, which means "sour," and refers to the sharp odor and sour taste of many acids.
		Acids are often divided into categories such as "strong" and "weak." One measure of the strength of an acid is the acid-dissociation equilibrium constant, K
		The strongest acids are in the upper-left corner of this table; the strongest bases in the bottom-right corner.

		The conjugate acid-base pairs are H3O+ / H2O and C6H5OH / C6H5O - in equation [5.2] and H3O+ / H2O and NH4+ / NH3 in equation [5.3].
		The strength of an acid is determined by the extent to which it donates its proton in the presence of a common base such as water.
		Note the dissociation constant for the conjugate acid of base B would be determined by adding the acid [BH+ ] on the right-hand side of equation [5.24] to water.

	Acid Strength
		The weaker the acid the stronger is the bond between its Hydrogens and the rest of the molecule.
		If we compared acid strength with acids where the atoms bonded to Hydrogen were in the same period, the difference in the size of the atoms would not be significant.
		O(l) is the conjugate of the acid H

	Chemistry: Acids and Bases
		This is because the conjugate base of a strong acid is very weak and cannot undergo hydrolysis.
		Similarily, the conjugate acid of a strong base is very weak and likewise does not undergo hydrolysis.
		An acid-base titration is when you add a base to an acid until the equivalence point is reached which is where the moles of acid equals the moles of base.

	Blue Background Template
		Acid strength is related to molecular structure: What two factors make a hydrogen containing compound more or less acidic.
		Titration of an acid with a base or vice versa is a useful laboratory procedure for determining the concentration of an unknown acid or base.
		In this procedure a known volume of the unknown is titrated with a known concentration of the standard and the volume required measured with a ___________ and the end-point is detected by means of an acid-base _________________ which changes color.

	Conjugate Pairs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		A natural consequence of the Brønsted-Lowry definitions of acids and bases, perhaps a diabolical one, is that we end up with a very interesting relationship between acids and bases.
		When a base accepts a proton, the resulting chemical is called the conjugate acid of that original base.
		Being able to recognize conjugate pairs of acids and bases becomes important dealing with comparisons between the strengths of acids and bases, buffered solutions, and the hydrolysis of various salts.

	Re: Leaving Groups in Organic Chemistry
		"Conjugate acid" and "conjugate base" are terms used to describe what you get when you protonate or deprotonate something.
		CN HCN is the conjugate acid of CN, and CN is the conjugate base of HCN.
		Usually we talk about stability of the conjugate base as being the biggest factor in how acidic something is, and this is possibly true--but the other factor is the question, "How strong is the H-A bond in the acid compared with the H-O bond in H

		However, substances are generally classified as an acid or base based on the reaction of that substance in (with) water.

		Explain the difference between strong and weak acids, and why different arrows are used when writing their reactions with water.
		Strong acids completely dissociate in water to form hydronium ion, and a single arrow is appropriate (no significant reverse reaction; not an equilibrium!).
		Weak acids partially dissociate in water to form hydronium ion, and a double arrow is appropriate (significant reverse reaction; an equilibrium situation).

		When an acid or a base react, it is useful to identify the conjugate base or the conjugate acid.
		Acids in which the equilibrium lies to the left are called weak acids because they exist mostly in the HA form.
		These are called strong acids because virtually all of the protons have dissociated from the conjugate base and are attached to a water molecule.

	SparkNotes: SAT Chemistry: Conjugate Acid-Base Pairs
		Conjugate acid-base pairs are compounds that differ by the presence of one proton, or H
		All acids have a conjugate base, which is formed when their proton has been donated; likewise, all bases have a conjugate acid, formed after they have accepted a proton.
		Remember that the stronger the acid, the weaker its conjugate base, and the converse is also true.

		However, since such a small percentage of the acid will dissociate in solution, and such a small percentage of added conjugate base will be protonated, we can use the starting concentrations of acid and conjugate base as relatively accurate values in the calculation
		Thus, most buffer solutions are made of a weak acid with the conjugate base (in approximately equal concentration) supplied as a salt (where the cation is the conjugate acid of a strong base).
		The sodium acetate is a salt derived from a strong base (NaOH) and a weak acid (acetic acid).

	SparkNotes: Fundamentals of Acids and Bases: Fundamentals of Acid-Base Chemistry
		For more than two-hundred years, chemists have struggled to come up with a way to describe acid-base reactions that is at the same time physically relevant, specific enough to be accurate, and general enough to include everything that should be considered an acid-base relationship.
		The Bronsted-Lowry model implies that there is a relationship between acids and bases (acids transfer protons to bases) and allows us to define conjugate acids and conjugate bases, as seen in Figure 1.2.
		The Lewis model of acids and bases proposes that an acid is an electron pair acceptor while a base is an electron pair donor.

		In pure water the hydronium ion concentration and the hydroxide ion concentration are equal to 1.00 E-7 and the water is said to be neutral.
		The acid equilibrium constant and the base equilibrium constant for a conjugate acid and a conjugate base can be related.
		This means that the addition of an acid or a base does not affect the hydronium ion concentration.

		Alternatively, a known concentration of acid is slowly added to a basic solution until the base is completely neutralized.
		Therefore, when a strong acid is combined with a strong base it produces a salt (anion from strong acid, cation from a strong base) that has no tendency to affect the pH of a solution
		However, for a weak acid, the salt contains the conjugate base, which is able to recombine with a proton.
