Is acid a proton donor or electron pair donor?

Acid is a proton donor. It donates a proton (H+) to another molecule to form a conjugate base. It is not an electron pair donor, which is characteristic of bases.

When an electron is passed to an electron acceptor molecule such as NADP what happens to NADP?

NADP becomes reduced to form NADPH when it accepts an electron from an electron donor, such as an electron. This reduction reaction allows NADP to carry high-energy electrons for use in cellular processes like photosynthesis.


Is an acid an electron donor?

No, an acid is not an electron donor. An acid donates a proton (H+) in a chemical reaction. It is a proton donor, not an electron donor.


What is electron donor?

An electron donor is a substance that donates electrons to another substance during a chemical reaction, typically becoming oxidized in the process. In biological systems, molecules like NADH or FADH2 are electron donors that transfer electrons to the electron transport chain.


What is the electron donor molecule called?

A molecule which donates electron(s) to an other, is called a reductor orreducing atom / moleculeExample:2Fe --> 2Fe2+ + 4 e- reductor Fe4 e- + O2 --> 2O2- oxidator O2-------------------------------------------- +2Fe + O2 --> 2FeO redox reaction, the corrosion of Iron by Oxygen (forming rust)
