Atoms, Chemical Bonding and Acid-Bases

A substance that contains a higher concentration of OH- ions than pure water, resulting in a pH value above 7.

A subatomic particle with a negative charge that orbits the nucleus of an atom.

A single covalent bond is formed.

A substance that contains a higher concentration of H+ ions than pure water, resulting in a pH value below 7.

A substance with a pH of less than 7.

A scale that measures the acidity or basicity of a solution, ranging from 0 (most acidic) to 14 (most basic), with 7 being neutral.

A chemical bond formed when two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons.

Acids release H+ ions in solution, while bases release OH- ions.

A solution with a pH of 7, where the concentrations of H+ and OH- ions are equal.

A group of two or more atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound.
