HCl(aq) is a strong acid but Cl- is a “weak” base. Why? Because Cl- will not react with H+. Why Not? If it did, HCl(aq) {a strong acid} would form.

pH – A measure of Acidity
The pH of a solution is defined as
the
negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion
concentration (in mol/L)
.
pH = –log [H
+]
pOH = –log [OH
pH + pOH = 14

Acid / Base
-^ Acid
is an
electron-pair acceptor
.^ These are
generally cations and neutral molecules withvacant valence orbitals. For example H
+^ & BF
. 3 -^ Base
is an
electron-pair donor
. These are
generally anions and neutral molecules withavailable pairs of electrons, such as H
O, NH 2
, O 3 2–
-^ The bond formed is called a
coordinate bond
