How can acids and bases be identified and named?

Anhydrides are functional groups which are basically the derivatives of either acids or bases. Acid anhydrides will have R-COO-CO-R' pattern where R and R' are alkyl groups. While basic anhydrides...

And so acetic anhydride is the anhydride of 2 equiv of acetic acid: $"2H"_3"CC(=O)(OH)"rarr"H"_3"CC(=O)(O)C(=O)(CH"_3) + "H"_2"O"$ And the $"base anhydride"$ is an older term that is used in inorganic chemistry;...

In Arrhenius, we are limited to cases in which water is the solvent (this is assumed by Arrhenius). An acid will dissolve in water to produce $H^+$ ions, while a...

$"Lewis acids and bases"$ ACCEPT, and DONATE electron density, conceived to be in the form of a pair of electrons. $AlCl_3(aq) + Cl^(-) rarr AlCl_4^-$ In terms of the definition,...

Bronsted-Lowry acids are molecules that lose $H^+$ ions. Bases are those that pick them up again. For example, $H_2O + HCl -> H_3O^+ + Cl^-$. In this reaction,...

And acid in aqueous solution is conceived to undergo a protonolysis reaction... $HX(aq) + H_2O(l) rightleftharpoonsH_3O^+ + X^(-)$ And as for any equilibrium, we can measure and quantify it in...

Phoebus Levene worked on Nucleic acid and figured out DNA is composed of Adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine and contained a Phosphate group.

Each amino acid is represented by a genetic word called : which is three letter long and codons are written in commaless manner. Thus, 24 bases would form 24/3 =...

Well, we have to know the base pairs for $"DNA"$ first. Adenine only bonds with thymine with two hydrogen bonds, while guanine only bonds with cytosine with three hydrogen bonds....

First, think about which base pairs arise in complementary strands of : DNA → DNA adenine → thymine (A → T) thymine → adenine (T → A)...
