What’s on the Acids & Bases poster
A 3-row table: Theory · Acid is · Base is.
Increasing generality.
- Arrhenius — Produces H⁺ in water — Produces OH⁻ in water
- Brønsted-Lowry — Proton donor — Proton acceptor
- Lewis — Electron pair acceptor — Electron pair donor
Brønsted-Lowry introduces conjugate pairs: an acid and its conjugate base differ by exactly one proton.
Questions about the Acids & Bases poster
- What’s on the Acids & Bases poster?
- A 3-row table: Theory · Acid is · Base is. Increasing generality. Arrhenius — Produces H⁺ in water — Produces OH⁻ in water; Brønsted-Lowry — Proton donor — Proton acceptor; Lewis — Electron pair acceptor — Electron pair donor. Brønsted-Lowry introduces conjugate pairs: an acid and its conjugate base differ by exactly one proton.
- Who is the Acids & Bases poster for?
- Acids & Bases belongs to the Chemistry section rather than to a school year, because physical science is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning general chemistry can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
- When should you use the Acids & Bases poster?
- Arrhenius, Brønsted-Lowry, Lewis. Each is broader than the last. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Acids & Bases belongs on the wall where that physical science work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
- What other posters go with Acids & Bases?
- Atomic Structure, Balancing Equations and Chemical Bonding sit alongside Acids & Bases in the Chemistry section. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.Atomic StructureBalancing EquationsChemical Bonding
- Is the Acids & Bases poster free to download and print?
- Yes. Acids & Bases downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the Chemistry section. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.Read the licence
- What size does the Acids & Bases poster print at?
- Acids & Bases is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Acids & Bases loses nothing.Printing guide
