Acids and Bases

Acids and Bases

Verse 1:
The first chemist to inform us,
His name was Savanté Arrhenius.
He said acids give the ion H Plus,
Bases give the ion OH Minus.

HCl shows us a great example
Hydronium forms in stock sample.
NaOH is the other story
Hydroxide makes the base inventory.

Chorus:
Acids and bases whats left to say?
3 different theories are together today
Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, Lewis
All their ideas added to this

Acids have a pH less than 7
pH 0 is as strong as heaven
the pH of 7 is neutral
Above which is base, must be well controlled.

Verse 2:
There was a problem with the first theory
Solved by two chemists Bronsted and Lowry
They proposed acids were proton donors
And that bases were but proton receptors

The result of this was acid-base reactions
Always wanting equilibrium action
Then the rise of conjugate pairs
More acids and bases put out there

Bridge:
These two things can both be quite caustic
If it hits you, you should test diagnostics
Dont ever mess with the six strong acids
They dissociate completely and will leave you roasted

Verse 3:
A guy called Lewis in 1963
He made the concept much harder for me
Lewis bases donate electron pairs
Lewis acids accept them there

An adduct forms between the compounds
This time the protons dont have to move around
This is unlike Bronsted-Lowrys theory
It makes the subject far from easy

LOL NICE

@Seekerofparadise I made this in like M4 ok...

[elidor01]

this is very nerdy, but I;m sure you know that. Thank you for the great review.

[pursuethehunter]

acid and bases rock my world

[daniel5198781912]

this is good :)

[Devilcarnation]

Good job mate. !

i enjoyed the song... especially the last part...LOL

[bucsman414]

i actually really enjoyed that

and learned about chemistry
