The Arrhenius definition of acids and bases:
An acid produces H+ ions in aqueous solution
A base produces OH- ions in aqueous solution
In water, H+ ions always associate with H2O molecules to produce?
H3O+ ions, or hydronium ions
The Brønsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases
An acid is a proton (H+ ion) donor
HCl(aq) + H2O(l)  H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

A base is a proton (H+ ion) acceptor
amphoteric
A substance that can act as an acid or a base
Conjugate Acid-Base
Slide 10
Acid–base reactions generally form?
water and a salt—an ionic compound—that usually remains dissolved in the solution
gas evolution reaction
The reaction of carbonates or bicarbonates (compounds containing CO32− or HCO3− ) with acids produces water, gaseous carbon dioxide, and a salt
titration
a substance in a solution of known concentration is reacted with another substance in a solution of unknown concentration
equivalence point
the number of moles of OH- added equals the number of moles of H+ in the original solution
Strong acids
completely ionize in solution
A strong acid is a strong electrolyte
List of Strong Acids:
HCl
HBr
HI
HNO3
HClO4
H2SO4
monoprotic acid
diprotic acid
polyprotic acid
A monoprotic acid contains only one ionizable proton
A diprotic acid contains two ionizable protons
A polyprotic acid contains multiple ionizable protons

Polyprotic acids ionize in multiple steps
Weak Acids
only partially ionize in solution
weak electrolytes
Strong Base
one that completely dissociates in solution
List of Strong Bases
LiOH
NaOH
KOH
Sr(OH)2
Ca(OH)2
Ba(OH)2
The ion product constant for water
Kw= [H3O+] × [OH−] = (1.0 × 10-7)(1.0 × 10-7) = 1.0 × 10-14
pH scale
pH < 7 Acidic solution
pH = 7 Neutral solution
pH > 7 Basic solution
pH?
pOH?
pH = -log [H3O+]

pOH = -log [OH-]
Buffer
a solution that resists pH change by neutralizing added acid or added base

contain significant amounts of a weak acid and its conjugate base
Acid Rain
the result of sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides emitted by fossil fuel combustion
These oxides react with water to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which fall as acid rain
