Chem SAT II: Electrochemistry content and Bronsted-Lowry question

<p>Wow, that's a long title.</p>

<p>Anyway, how much electrochemistry is on the Chem SAT II? You know, like voltage and stuff.</p>

<p>Also, I know the Bronsted-Lowry definitions, but I never get the questions right that ask "Which of these could NOT be a Bronsted-Lowry base/acid?" What am I to be looking for? </p>

<p>Thank you anyone who responds!</p>

<p>Electro - know how to balance redox equations, difference between galvanic and electrolytic, the meaning of standard reduction potentials, activity series</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>BL Acid - look for something that donates a proton (e.g. NH4+)
BL Base - look for something that receives a proton (e.g. NH3)</p>

<p>Arrenhius Acid - releases H+ (HCl)
Arrenhius Base - releases OH- (NaOH)</p>

<p>Lewis Base - look for something that has a lone pair electrons to donate
Lewis Acid - look for something that can receive a lone pair of electrons</p>

<p>Remember how to balance redox equations using the half-reaction method.</p>
