?
Substance that can act as both an acid and base
Amphoteric
1 of 10
A compound containing hydrogen that dissociates in water to form hydrogen ions
Acid
2 of 10
A compound that reacts with an acid to form a salt and water
Base
3 of 10
A base that dissolves in water to form hydroxide ions
Alkali
4 of 10

Salt
5 of 10
The decomposition of a compound using electricity
Electrolysis
6 of 10
A transition metal ion bonded to one or more ligands by dative covalent bonds
Complex ion
7 of 10
A molecule or ion that can donate a pair of electrons to the transition metal ion to form dative bond
Ligand
