Autoprotolysis

[Clara Cho 2K]

what is autoprotolysis?

[KeyaV1C]

In autoprotolysis a proton is transferred between two identical molecules, one of which releases a proton which is accepted by the other molecule. Ex. H20 + H20 -> h30+ + OH-

It is when a molecule transfers a proton to another one of the same molecule.

Autoprotolysis is proton transfer between the same type of molecule.

[Diana Andrade_4F]

Autoprotolysis is when two identical molecules transfer protons.

[Michellekim1H]

It basically means that a proton is transferred between the same molecule. For example, 2H2O(l) <-> H30+(aq) + OH-(aq).

[Emily Lo 1J]

It is the transfer of a proton between the same type of molecule. An example of it would be 2H2O H3O + OH

[Nick Lewis 4F]

Lavelle talked about autoprotolysis a lot throughout lectures, so I wouldnt be surprised to see it show up on the test. Definitions above are good, i would say definitely know the equation and be able to explain it, which shouldnt be that hard if you have a rough understanding of what it is.

[Isabella Dal Porto 1H]

It is helpful to know since the autoprotolysis constant of water, Kw, is used to calculate hydronium and hydroxide concentration. That helps us determine if the solution is more acidic or basic.

[Maya Pakulski 1D]

It is the transfer of a proton between the same type of molecule. An example of it would be 2H2O H3O + OH

What are some other common examples of autoprotolysis besides water?

[Madelyn Romberg 1H]

Autoprotolysis is proton transfer between the same type of molecule. In this class, water was the example. 2H20 <-> h3o+ + oh-

[Zoe Gleason 4F]

It is the transfer of a proton between the same type of molecule. An example of it would be 2H2O H3O + OH

What are some other common examples of autoprotolysis besides water?

Ammonia and acetic acid can also both undergo autoprolysis.

[Madeline Phan 1E]

Autoprotolysis occurs when a proton is transferred between two identical molecules.

[305385703]

Protolysis is a process that occurs with polyprotic substances. There are occurrences where a molecule can give another of the same type of molecule a proton.

[Lizette Noriega 1H]

It is the proton transfer between two of the same molecules

[William Chan 1D]

It is proton transfer between two of the same molecule. For example, if we have two water molecules, one can donate a proton to the other, and result in OH- and H30+ molecules.
