CHEMISTRY MOLECULAR APPROACH

Chemistry: A Molecular Approach '08 accuracy – answer :A term that refers to how close a measured value is to the actual value. acid – answer :A molecular compound that is able to donate an H+ ion (proton) when dissolved in water, thereby increasing the concentration of H+. acid ionization constant (Kₐ) – answer :The equilibrium constant for the ionization reaction of a weak acid; used to compare the relative strengths of weak acids acid-base reaction (neutralization reaction) - answer :A reaction in which an acid reacts with a base and the two neutralize each other, producing water. acid-base tritation – answer :A laboratory procedure in which a basic (or acidic) solution of unknown concentration is reacted with an acidic (or basic) solution of known concentration, in order to determine the concentration of the unknown. acidic solution – answer :A solution containing an acid that creates additional H₃O+ ions, causing [H₃O+] to increase.
