Definition of acid/base: Arrhenius
|
acid=ionizes in water and produce H+
HCl -> H+ + Cl- base=ionizes in water and produce OH- NaOH -> Na+ + OH- |
|
Definition of acid/base: Bronsted-Lowry
|
acid= donate a proton (H+)
base= accepting a proton NH3 + H2O <-> NH4+ + OH- NH3 and OH- are bases H2O and NH4+ are acids |
|
Definition of acid/base: Lewis
|
acid= electron pair acceptor
base= electron pair donor Exclusively lewis acid-base: NH3 + BCl3 -> H3NBCl3 NH3 base, BCl3 acid. |
|
Increasing pH means decreasing
|
[H+]
|
|
Strong acids?
|
HCl, HBr, HI, HNO3, HClO4, H2SO4
|
|
Strong Bases
|
LiOH, NaOH, KOH, Ba(OH)2, Sr(OH)2
|
|
K constant for strong acid/bases?
|
does not exist since they dissociate completely
|
|
With an oxoacid like HClOx which would be stronger acid...HClO3 or HClO2
|
HClO3 since there are more O atoms attached to central atom, weakening the attraction the central atom has for the H+
|
|
The salt...NaCl..acidic, neutral or basic?
|
neutral
|
|
The salt...NH4Cl..acidic, neutral or basic?
|
acidic
|
|
The salt...NaC2H3O2..acidic, neutral or basic?
|
basic
|
|
conjugates of strong base/acid...what will happen in water?
|
weak and unreactive
|
|
Weak base, weak acid salt, pH?
|
depend on relative strengths of conjugate acid and base of the specific ions in the salt
|
|
Properties of buffers...
|
-pH remains unchanged if diluted or concentrated
-weak acid/base with its conjugate |
|
Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation
|
pH = pKa - log [Acid]/[base]
|
|
Polyprotic acids
|
more willing to give up first protons...so H3PO4 is stronger acid than H2PO4-
|
|
Amphoteric
|
act as acid or base
|
|
anhydride
|
combine with water to form acid (formed by oxides of nonmetals) or base (formed by oxides of metals)
