Forms hydronium ion H3O+ Forms hydroxide ion OH- Loses electrons (Oil) Gains electrons (Rig) Where oxidation takes place Where reduction takes place
No net charge (simple ions from periodic table)
Charge of ion or O takes electrons (1/bond) Moles/Liter of solution
[H3O+]>[OH-] acidic [H3O+]x[OH-]=1x10-14 [H3O+]<[OH-] basic [H3O+]=10-pH
Catalyze hydrolysis of proteins
Oxidize DNA (guanine) changes H-Bond patterns
Hydrogen Bonding: effects on melting and boiling points; effects on solubility NO2 + SO2 from combustion generate
HNO3 and H2SO4 Rust forming & Marble dissolving
