Empirical Definition of Acids and Bases
|
Acids: Electrolytes, turn blue litmus red, pH below 7, tastes sour, neutralizes bases, reacts with metals to form hydrogen gas
Bases: Electrolytes, turn red litmus blue, pH above 7, tastes bitter, neutralizes acids, feels slippery |
|
Theoretical Definition of Acids: Arrhenius vs. Modified Arrhenius
|
Arrhenius- Starts with H or ends with COOH, gives off H+ ions in solutions
Modified Arrhenius: Reacts with water to form hydronium |
|
Theoretical Definition of Bases: Arrhenius vs. Modified Arrhenius
|
Arrhenius- Ionic compound with OH, gives of OH- ions in solutions
Modified Arrhenius- Ionic compounds dissociate to form molecular compounds and polyatomic ions, sometimes gives of OH- ions |
|
Strong Base vs. Weak Base
|
Strong Base- Ionic compound with hydroxide
Weak Base- Makes hydroxide after reaction with water |
|
Strong Acid vs. Weak Acid
|
Strong- Ionize to form hydronium 100%
HCl, HBr, HI H2SO4, HClO4, HNO3 Weak- Ionize to form hydronium less than 50% |
|
Equivalence Point
|
Point where enough titrant has been added to react exactly with the analyte, ideal endpoint.
