Acids Overview
Definition

• Acid: Any hydrogen-containing substance that
can donate a proton (hydrogen ion, H+H+) or accept an electron pair in
chemical reactions.

Physical Properties

• Taste: Sharp, sour taste (e.g., lemon juice).
• Texture: Rough feel.

Chemical Properties

• Proton Presence: Contain H+H+ (proton).
• Proton Donor: Act as proton donors in protolytic reactions.
• Dissolution: Dissolve in water to form H3O+H3O+ and ions (ionization).
• Electrolyte Formation: Form electrolytes when dissolved in water.
• pH Level: pH < 7 (indicating acidity).
