Stronger acids form weaker conjugate bases, and weaker acids form stronger conjugate bases. Thus strong acids are completely ionized in aqueous solution because their conjugate bases are weaker bases than water. Weak acids are only partially ionized because their conjugate bases are compete successfully with water for possession of protons.

Examples of AI tools used and how they enhance the learning experience: Describe the AI tools you plan to incorporate, such as simulations or interactive quizzes, and explain how they will help students grasp complex concepts.

Weak Acids: Result in a higher pH compared to strong acids of the same concentration. Weak Bases: Typically, less than 5% of the base molecules ionize, leaving most of the base molecules undissociated in solution. Weak Bases: Result in a lower pH compared to strong bases of the same concentration.

Lewis' theory used electrons instead of proton transfer and specifically stated that an acid is a species that accepts an electron pair while a base donates an electron pair.

Citrus fruits such as oranges and lemons contain citric acid and ascorbic acid, which is better known as vitamin C (see figure below). Carbonated sodas contain phosphoric acid. Vinegar contains acetic acid. Your own stomach utilizes hydrochloric acid to digest food. Bases are less common as foods, but they are nonetheless present in many household products.

Base Dissociation Constant (Kb): A quantitative measure of the strength of a base in solution, given by the equilibrium constant for the dissociation of the base into its conjugate acid and a hydroxide ion.

Solutions are homogeneous mixtures where solutes are uniformly distributed within solvents, and their solubility is influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the nature of the solute and solvent.

The two single electrons (to the left and bottom of the atom) can form single covalent bonds with other atoms, while the two pairs of double electrons (top and right) are available to interact with a hydrogen ion. A Brønsted-Lowry base is a molecule or ion that accepts a hydrogen ion in a reaction.
