| Summary: | <abstract language="eng">This article intends to answer the question: "what is the best way to evaluate the strength of acids and bases?" The meaning of the word strength, the main acid-base theories (ionotropic and electron pair), the neutralization reactions and the thermodynamical formalism are considered. Some cases are presented and discussed. In conclusion, evaluating acid-base strength is dependent on the theory (formalism) as well as on the system and measuring techniques. |
