Study Notes

Kotz and Triechel, Chemistry and Chemical Reactivity Chapter 16: Sections 9-10.

  1. 16.9 Acid dissociation depends on the bond strength between the hydrogen atom and the rest of the acid molecule.
  2. 16.10 Lewis acids and bases are described in terms of electron transfer, rather than H+ transfer. A Lewis acid accepts a pair of electrons, a Lewis base donates a pair of electrons.

Key Formula
