When a piece of magnesium metal is added to hydrochloric acid, what gas is produced? |
Hydrogen Gas |
|
Acid rain has a pH that is… |
less than 6.2 |
|
Characteristics of a Base |
Produces OH- Slippery, soapy feel (because it reacts with oil in the skin) Tastes bitter Phenolphthalein: pink |
|
A Brønsted-Lowry Acid.. |
Donates the H+ (In H2O+CO3=HCO3+OH, H2O is the Brønsted-Lowry acid) |
|
Characteristics of an Acid |
Produce H+ Corrosive Sour taste Phenolphthalein: colorless |
|
The eq constant for a reaction __ with temperature. |
Does not change |
|
Kw |
1E-14 |
|
Magnesium metal is attacked by.. |
Sulfuric acid solutions. |
|
Catalytic Converters |
Uses a catalyst to lower activation barrier Produces CO2 and H2O, potentially produces CO which is deadly (the catalytic converter takes the CO and finished the reaction) Uses platinum |

|
When finding a conjugate base you take the H+ from.. |
Oxygen not carbon. |
|
Stronger Acid means a ___ Ka |
Bigger |
|
More base means a __ pH |
Higher |
|
More acid means a __ pH |
Lower |
|
Ionization |
Turning into corresponding ions |
|
Activation Energy |
Energy needed to break existing bonds |
|
In the ionization of water |
H+ is transferred from one H2O molecule to the other One molecule acts as an acid while another acts as a base (H2O+H2O=H3O+OH) |
|
Magnesium reacts |
Rapidly with acid and forms a salt of Mg and H2 gas |
|
Acids and Metals |
Metal + Acid = Metal Sale + Hydrogen gas |
|
Acids and Carbonates |
Acids react with carbonates to produce CO2, H2O and an Ionic compound (salt) The acids react with CO3 to produce carbonic acid, H2CO3, which breaks down rapidly to CO2 and H2O Metal + Acid = Carbon Dioxide + Metal Salt + Water |
|
Your lungs act as a |
Buffer and adjusts chemicals as needed Smoking raises the acidity of blood H2CO3 = H2O + CO2 |
|
Neutralization Reactions |
Neutralization is the reaction of an acid and a base |
|
Buffer solution |
Maintains pH by neutralizing added acid or base Blood contains buffers |
|
Buffer Expression Steps |
1. Ka = (H3O x Con. base)/weak acid 2. H3O = Ka x (weak acid/con base) 3. pH = -log(H3O) |
|
Increasing the rate of a reaction causes: |
More sound Less combustion |
|
Enzymes sre |
Biological catalysts |
|
Le Chanteliers |
When a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium the system will respond by shifting in the direction that minimizes the effect of the stress |
|
Arrhenius Acids |
Produce H+ ions in H2O Turn blue litmus paper red |
|
Monoprotic acid |
Produces one H+ Naming continues as more H+ is added (H2SO4 is diprotic) |
|
Binary Acids |
Prefix “hydro” with an “ic” ending; HCl = hydrochloric acid |
|
Oxy/Polyatomic acids |
No prefix -Ate = -ic (HClO3 = Chloric Acid) -Ite = -Ous (HBrO2 = Bromous Acid) |
|
Basic bases donate OH… |
All at the same time (if multiple) |
|
Weak acids |
Partially ionize |
|
When a reaction is at equilibrium…when |
The forward and reverse actions cover at the same rate |
|
When you open a bottle of soft drink and leave it open, the drink eventually goes flat. This is because the equilibrium between carbonic acid and carbon dioxide shifts to produce |
More carbon dioxide |
|
One function of a catalyst is to |
Increase the number of successful reactant collisions |
|
The rate of a chemical reaction can be determined by observing.. |
The amount of product formed in a unit of time |
|
Ammonium hydroxide is a weak base because |
It dissociates only slightly in water |
