Chemist Johannes Bronsted and scientist Thomas Lowry proposed that an acid should be defined as a substance that can donate a proton, while a base...
Just as with Bronsted-Lowry acids/bases, we can have strong Lewis acids (electrophiles) and strong Lewis bases (nucleophiles). However, whereas with Bronsted-Lowry we can quantify acid/base strength using the pKa/pKb, this is not possible with electrophiles & nucleophiles. This is because elec...
Review the corresponding lesson for more information on the the Bronsted-Lowry and Lewis definitions of acids and bases. This lesson covers the following objectives: Describe the Arrhenius definition and discuss how Bronsted, Lowry, and Lewis built on this definition ...
Re:A Question about Lewis Bronsted « Reply #4 on: April 20, 2005, 06:26:20 PM » There are Bronsted Lowry acids and Lewis acids. Every BL acid is Lewis acid, but not every Lewis acid is BL acid - these are different things. Lewis theory is more general. Logged ChemBuddy ch...
acids and bases I have often found that general statements such as Bronsted generalized the concept of base’’ or ''Lewis generalized the concept of acid’’ lull the student into thinking he understands something that he really does not, and that when asked to label the acid and base ...
