Acid
Any substance that produces hydrogen ions, H+, in a water solution.
Base
any substance that forms hydroxide ions, OH-, in a water solution.
Chemical Property
any characteristic of a substance, such as flammability, that indicates whether it can undergo a certain chemical change.
Conduction
Transfer of energy through matter by colliding particles.
