Types of solvent

  •          Protophillic solvent: Solvent having a tendency to accept proton as  H2O, NH3
  •          Protogenic solvent: Solvent having a tendency to donate proton as HCl, H2O
  •         Amphoteric solvent: Solvent having a tendency to accept as well as donate proton as HCl, H2O
  •       Aprotic solvent: Solvent that neither accepts nor donates proton, e.g.: CS2, CCl4, etc.
