This document discusses acids and bases and their reactions. It defines acids and bases according to Arrhenius and Bronsted-Lowry theories. Acids are substances that increase the concentration of hydronium ions in solution, while bases increase hydroxide ions. Bronsted-Lowry acids donate protons while bases accept protons. Amphoteric substances can act as both acids and bases, while polyprotic acids can donate multiple protons. Conjugate acid-base pairs refer to reactants and products that differ by the gain or loss of a proton. Neutralization reactions occur between acids and bases. Redox reactions involve the transfer of electrons between oxidizing and reducing agents through oxidation and reduction.
