Concept explainers
Interpretation: Each strong acid and strong base in below table should be identified.
Concept introduction: According to the Bronsted-Lowry concept, substance that donates proton is termed as acid while that accepts or gains protons is called base. Species formed after loss of protons from acids are known as their respective conjugate bases whereas conjugate acid is produced by addition of protons to base. The strength of conjugate acids and conjugate bases are inversely related to the strengths of their respective bases and acids.
According to Lewis concept, the substance that donates electron pair is termed as base while that accepts or gains electron pair is called acid. For example,
According to the Arrhenius concept, substances that donate hydrogen ions in solutions are known as acids while bases are substances that release hydroxide ions in solutions.
