Write an equation for the reaction between each Lewis acid-base pair, showing electron flow by means of curved arrows. Q.) (CH3)2CH+ + Cl- ---------->
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
Write an equation for the reaction between each Lewis acid-base pair, showing electron flow by means of curved arrows.
Q.) (CH3)2CH+ + Cl- ---------->
An acid is a substance that gives H+ ions in its solution whereas a basic substance gives OH- ions in its solution. The reaction of an acid HA with a base BOH can be written as:
Here BA stands for salt and the reaction named as neutralization reaction. Thus the reaction of an acid with a base results in the formation of salt and water. The salt is an ionic compound that is formed by the combination of the cation (B+) from base and anion (A-) from acid and forms salt BA.
Another theory of acid and base is called as Lewis acid-base theory. It stands that the molecule which can give its extra pair of electrons ( negative charge or lone pair), is called as Lewis base.
Whereas the molecule which has tendency to accept the electrons is called as Lewis acid.
In the given reaction, Cl- must be Lewis base as it has negative charge and (CH3)2CH+ must be Lewis acid as it has positive charge.
