Acidic Solution
|
Contains more Hydrogen Ions than Hydroxide Ions
|
|
Basic Solution
|
Contains more Hydroxide Ions than Hydrogen Ions
|
|
Arrhenius Model
|
A model of acids and bases; states that an acid is a substance that contains hydrogen and ionizes to produce hydrogen ions in aqueous solution and a base is a substance that contains a hydroxide group and dissociates to produce a hydroxide ion in aqueous solution; Used for Strong Acids
|
|
Bronsted-Lowry Model
|
A model that focuses on the hydrogen ion (H+); an acid is a hydrogen-ion donor and a base is a hydrogen-ion acceptor; Used for Weak Acids
|
|
Conjugate Acid
|
The species produced when a base accepts a hydrogen ion from an acid
|
|
Conjugate Base
|
The species that results when an acid donates a hydrogen ion to a base
|
|
Conjugate Acid-Base Pair
|
Consists of two substances related to each other by the donating and accepting of a single hydrogen ion
|
|
Amphoteric
|
Water and other substances that can act as either an acid or base
|
|
Monoprotic Acid
|
An acid that can donate only one hydrogen ion
|
|
Polyprotic Acid
|
Any acid that has more than one ionizable hydrogen atom
|
|
Anhydrides
|
Oxides that can become acids or bases by adding the elements contained in water
|
|
Strong Acid
|
An acid that ionizes completely in aqueous solution
|
|
Weak Acid
|
An acid that ionizes only partially in dilute aqueous solution
|
|
Acid Ionization Constant (Ka)
|
The value of the equilibrium constant expression for the ionization of a weak acid
|
|
Strong Base
|
A base that dissociates entirely into metal ions and hydroxide ions in aqueous solution
|
|
Weak Base
|
Ionizes only partially in dilute aqueous solution to form the conjugate acid of the base and hydroxide ion
|
|
Base Ionization Constant (Ka)
|
The value of the equilibrium constant expression for the ionization of a base
|
|
Ion Product Constnat for Water (Kw)
|
The value of the equilibrium constant expression for the self-ionization of water; H2O is Kw = 1.0 x 10 E-14
|
|
pH
|
The negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration
|
|
pOH
|
The negative logarithm of the hydroxide ion concentration
|
|
Neutralization Reaction
|
A reaction in which an acid and a base react in aqueous solution to produce a salt and water
|
|
Salt
|
An ionic compound made up a cation from a base and an anion from an acid
|
|
Titration
|
A method for determining the concentration of a solution by reacting a known volume of the solution with a solution of known concentration
|
|
Equivalence Point
|
The stoichiometric point of a titration
|
|
Acid-Base Indicators
|
Chemical dyes whose colors are affected by acidic and basic solutions
|
|
End Point
|
The point at which the indicator used in a titration changes color
|
|
Salt Hydrolysis
|
The process in which anions of the dissociated salt accept hydrogen ions from water or the cations of the dissociated salt donate hydrogen ions to water
|
|
Buffer
|
Solutions that resist changes in pH when limited amounts of acid or base are added
|
|
Buffer Capacity
|
The amount of acid or base a buffer solution can absorb without a significant change in pH
