Acids and Bases: TheoriesAt the conclusion of our time together, you should be able to: Explain the 3 different theories for an acid, Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, Lewis Explain the 3 different theories for a base, Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, Lewis Identify conjugate acids and bases
Acid/Base Theories • Theory #1: Arrhenius (traditional) Acids – produce H+ ions (or hydronium ions H3O+) Bases – produce OH- ions Simple look for an H at the beginning or an OH at the end of a compound (problem: some bases don’t have hydroxide ions!)
Arrhenius acid is a substance that produces H+ (H3O+) in water. Notice the H on the left. Arrhenius base is a substance that produces OH- in water, but notice there is no OH- on the left!!
Acid/Base Theories • Theory #1: Arrhenius (traditional) Try #1 on your handout. • A • S • A • B • S • B
Acid/Base Theories Theory #2: Brønsted – Lowry Acids – proton donor Bases – proton acceptor A “proton” is really just a hydrogen atom that has lost its electron!
A Brønsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor A Brønsted-Lowry base is a proton acceptor conjugate acid conjugate base base acid
Acid-Base Theories The Brønsted definition means NH3 is a BASE in water — and water is itself an ACID

Acids & Base Theories Lewis acid - a substance that accepts an electron pair Theory #3 – Lewis Lewis base - a substance that donates an electron pair
Lewis Acids & Bases • Electron pair of the new O-H bond originates on the Lewis base. Formation of hydronium ion is an excellent example of the Lewis definition.
