Acids & Bases Acids: • acids are sour tasting • Arrhenius acid: Any substance that, when dissolved in water, increases the concentration of hydronium ion (H3O+) • Bronsted-Lowry acid: A proton donor • Lewis acid: An electron acceptor Bases: • bases are bitter tasting and slippery • Arrhenius base: Any substance that, when dissolved in water, increases the concentration of hydroxide ion (OH-) • Bronsted-Lowery base: A proton acceptor • Lewis acid: An electron donor
ELECTROLYTES Electrolytes are species which conducts electricity when dissolved in water. Acids, Bases, and Salts are all electrolytes. Salts and strong Acids or Bases form Strong Electrolytes. Salt and strong acids (and bases) are fully dissociated therefore all of the ions present are available to conduct electricity. HCl(s) + H2O H3O+ + Cl- Weak Acids and Weak Bases for Weak Electrolytes. Weaks electrolytes are partially dissociated therefore not all species in solution are ions, some of the molecular form is present. Weak electrolytes have less ions avalible to conduct electricity. NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH-

Acids & Bases For the following Identify the conjugate acid and the conjugate base. The conjugate refers to the acid or base produced in an acid/base reaction. The acid reactant produces its conjugate base(CB). a. Al(OH)3 + 3 HCl AlCl3 + 3 H2O b. Ba(OH)2 + 2 HC2H3O2 Ba(C2H3O2)2 + 2 H2O c. 2 KOH + H2SO4 K2SO4 + 2 H2O d. NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH- CA CB CB CA CB CA CA CB
pHA measure of the hydronium ion • The scale for measuring the hydronium ion concentration [H3O+] in any solution must be able to cover a large range. A logarithmic scale covers factors of 10. The “p” in pH stands for log. • A solution with a pH of 1 has [H3O+] of 0.1 mol/L or 10-1 • A solution with a pH of 3 has [H3O+] of 0.001 mol/L or 10-3 • A solution with a pH of 7 has [H3O+] of 0.0000001 mol/L or 10-7 pH = - log [H3O+]
The pH scale The pH scale ranges from 1 to 10-14 mol/L or from 1 to 14. pH = - log [H3O+] 1 2 3 4 5 678 9 10 11 12 13 14 acid neutral base
Manipulating pH Algebraic manipulation of: pH = - log [H3O+] allows for: [H3O+] = 10-pH If pH is a measure of the hydronium ion concentration then the same equations could be used to describe the hydroxide (base) concentration. [OH-] = 10-pOHpOH = - log [OH-] thus: pH + pOH = 14 ; the entire pH range!
PRACTICE PROBLEMS 5.623 x 10-9 M 3. What is the molar concentration of hydronium ion in a solution of pH 8.25? 4. What is the pH of a solution that has a molar concentration of hydronium ion of 9.15 x 10-5? pH = 4.0
