Using The Bronsted-Lowry Table Chem. 12
Acidic reaction refers to the forward reaction only Basic reactions refers to the reverse reaction only
100% Dissociation equally strong acids no reverse reaction
↔ weak acids
How do you compare the relative strength of 2 weak acids? i.e. Oxalic and phosphoric 2 ways to do it
Do not act as bases because reverse reaction is not possible
Do not act as acids because reverse reaction is not possible Strong bases
What are the other strong bases you should be aware of? By the way, they are not on your Bronsted-Lowry table.
Alkali metal hydroxides • Alkali earth metal hydroxides
Knowing how to use your B-L table will make your life easier on test day!
