acid-base reaction organic

Organic molecules can have acid-base reactions {acid-base reaction, organic}.

acidity

Bonds from highest to lowest acidity are H-Br, H-Cl, H-F, H-S-, H-O-, H-N-, and H-C-. From highest to lowest acidity, compounds are inorganic acids, carboxylic acids, alkylammonium ion, thiol, phenol, and alcohol.

basicity

From highest to lowest basicity, organic and inorganic compounds are -NH2- [2 is subscript and last - is superscript] or nitride, -R-O- [last - is superscript] or alkoxide, -O-H, -S-H, -Cl, NH3 [3 is subscript] or ammonia, and H2O [2 is subscript] or water.

neutral

Ketones, aldehydes, alkenes, and alkanes are neither acids nor bases.

Lewis

Lewis bases can attack double bond between carbons to make negatively charged carbanion. Lewis acids can attack double bond between carbons to make positively charged carbonium ion.
