Three ways to describe acids/basesThree ways to describe acids/bases Arrhenius Model of Acids and Bases: of Acids and Bases:
Acids shift a water solution toward HAcids shift a water solution toward H++ imbalance imbalance Bases remove HBases remove H++ ions from solution, leaving an OH ions from solution, leaving an OH--

Bronsted-Lowry Model of Acids and Bases: Acids are proton donorsAcids are proton donors.. Bases are proton acceptorsBases are proton acceptors..

Numerical constant represents Numerical constant represents acid and base strength.acid and base strength. Large K = stronger acid/baseLarge K = stronger acid/base Small K = weaker acid/baseSmall K = weaker acid/base
