Acids • Among the most common and important compounds • Aqueous solutions are important in biological systems and in chemical industrial processes • Characteristics • Cause sour taste of lemons and vinegar • Digest food in stomach • Dissolves some metals generating hydrogen gas • Chemical produced in the largest quantity in the USA • Sulfuric acid H2SO4
Acids • Acids • When dissolved in water will generate H+ and an anion • The H+ that is generated will give a sour taste • Vinegar (acetic acid) • Lemon (citric acid) • Most acids are oxo acids (will also gen. H+)
Naming Binary Acids • Use the prefix hydro- before the root name of the element • Add the suffix-ic and the word acid to the root name for the element • Example: HCl • hydrochloricacid • Example: HI • hydroiodicacid
Naming Oxo Acids • Produce H+ and a polyatomic ion when dissolved in water • Composed of hydrogen, oxygen, and another nonmetal • Use the root name of the polyatomic ion • If it ends in -ate use the suffix -ic acid • If it ends in -ite use the suffix -ous acid • Example: H2SO4 (from SO42- , sulfate ion) • sulfuric acid • Example: H2SO3 (from SO32- , sulfite ion) • sulfurous acid
Bases • Bases • When dissolved in water will generate OH- and a metal ion. • Sometimes called alkalis • The OH- that is generated will give a bitter taste • Slippery feel (like soap) • Most bases that are generated are composed from group 1A and 2A metals
Naming Bases • Most bases are usually ionic compounds • The hydroxide ion has a charge of (-1) and is combined with a positively charged ion (group IA or IIA metal ion) • Hydroxides (bases) are named by their cation first, then the word “hydroxide” is added to the metal cation • Most common bases: • NaOH (sodium hydroxide) • KOH (potassium hydroxide) • Ca(OH)2 (calcium hydroxide) • NH4OH (ammoniumhydroxide)
Arrhenius • First person to recognize the essential nature of acids and bases • Acids: • Produce hydrogen ions (H+) in water • Bases • Produce hydroxide ions (OH-) in water
Brønsted-Lowry Acids and Bases • Limitations to Arrhenius model • Only for aqueous solutions • Free H+ does not exist in water • New model by Brønsted and Lowry • Acid • Any substance that can donate a proton (H+) to another substance: Proton donor • Base • Any substance that can accept a proton from another substance: Proton acceptor
Water as a Base • H+ does not exist in water due to the strong attraction to the polar water molecule • H3O+ is called a hydronium ion • Real way that protons exist in water
Brønsted-Lowry Model • The reaction involves a proton transfer • Acid can lose its proton to form a conjugatebase (something that could accept a proton back again) • Base accepts a proton to form a conjugate acid (something that could donate a proton) Conjugate Acid Acid Base Conjugate Base
Brønsted-Lowry Model • The HCl is the Brønsted-Lowry acid because it is donating proton (H+) to water molecule • The water molecule is the Brønsted-Lowry base since it accepts a proton Base Conjugate Base Conjugate Acid Acid
Conjugate Acid/Base Pairs • Related to each other by donating/accepting a single proton (H+) • The acid of the pair has the proton • The base of the pair does not • Every acid has a conjugatebase • Every base has a conjugate acid • “Conjugate” is given to the part of the pair that is produced in the reaction
Conjugate Acid/Base Pairs • Each acid is related to a base on the opposite side • If on the reactants side (left side) substances are called “acid” or “base” • If on the products side (right side) substances are called “conjugate acid” or “conjugate base” Conjugate Acid Conjugate Base Acid Base
Conjugate Acid/Base Pairs • Which of the following represent conjugate acid-base pairs? • H2O, H3O+ • OH-, HNO3 • H2SO4, SO42- • HC2H3O2, C2H3O2-
Conjugate Acid/Base Pairs • H2O, H3O+ • OH-, HNO3 • H2SO4, SO42- • HC2H3O2, C2H3O2-
Strength of Acids • When an acid dissolves in water, it gives its proton to water to form the conjugate base of the acid and a hydronium ion (H3O+) • The strength of the acid is determined by the amount of H3O+ that is produced
Strength of Acids • Strong acids completely dissociate and form H3O+ • If a weak acid, there is nothing stopping the conjugate base and the hydronium ion from reacting to re-form the acid and water Forward Reverse
Strength of Acids • There is a competition for the proton between the conjugate base and water • Water wins: Acid dissociates completely. It is a strong acid • Conjugate base wins: Acid doesn’t dissociate a lot. It is a weak acid
Strong Acids • Dissociate 100% (almost) • Have very weak conjugate bases (weak reverse reaction) • Conjugate base does not react readily with H3O+ • Forward reaction predominates
Weak Acids • Don’t dissociate very much • Have stronger conjugate bases • Conjugate base does react readily with H3O+ • Reverse reaction predominates
Types of Acids • Multiprotic Acids • Can donate more than one proton • H2SO4 • H3PO4 Strong Acid Weak Acid
Types of Acids • Oxo Acids • Acid hydrogen is attached to an oxygen • Acids of Polyatomic Ions
Types of Acids • Organic Acids • Acids with a carbon backbone (carboxyl group) • Acetic Acid (CH3COOH or HC2H3O2)
Ionization of Water • Water can act as an acid or a base • Amphoteric substance Base Acid Conj Acid Conj Base
Ionization of Water • In sample of pure water a small percentage has dissociated to produce ions • It involves a proton transfer • Results in an equal amount of H+ and OH- Base Acid Conj Acid Conj Base
Ionization of Water • Autoionization • Ionizing of water to form hydronium and hydroxide ions at 25 ºC • Doesn’t occur to a large extent • Square brackets around a compound mean “concentration of”
Ion-Product Constant for Water • At any temperature, the product of the concentration of H+ and OH- is always a constant • Valid in pure water or water with solutes • Kw (Ion-Product Constant of Water) • Conc. of ion expressed in moles/liter • Is 1x10-14
Ion-Product Constant for Water • If the [H+] is increased by the addition of acidic solute, the [OH-] must decrease until the expression is 1.0 × 10-14 again • Or, if the OH- ions are added to the water, the H+ must likewise decrease
Ion-Product Constant for Water • An acid is a substance that will increase the H+ ions in solution • All acidic solutions have a higher [H+] than [OH-] • An base is a substance that will increase the OH- ions in solution • All basic solutions have a higher [OH-] than [H+]
Ion-Product Constant for Water • Neutral Solution • Acidic Solution • Basic Solution • In all cases:
Example • Calculate [H+] in a solution in which [OH-] = 2.0x10-2 M. Is this solution acidic, basic or neutral?
The pH Scale • H+ concentrations range from very high values to extremely small valves • Difficult and inconvenient to work with numbers over such a large range • i.e. [H+]of10 M is 1000 trillion times greater than 10-14 • The pH scale of a solution was proposed as an easier and more practical way to handle such large numbers
p Scale • Used to express very small numbers • Based on log 10 • If N is a number then pN is: • Take the log of the number and then multiply by (-1) to change the sign
The pH Scale • The pH scale is defined as the negative log of the molar hydrogen ion concentration • Logarithms are exponents • The negative powers of 10 in the concentrations are converted to positive numbers
Calculating the pH of Solutions • The negative log of the H+ concentration • To determine the number of significant Figures for logs: The number of decimal places for the log is equal to the number of sig. figs. in the concentration (original number)
pH Examples • Calculate the pH for each of the following solutions • A solution in which [H+]=1.0x10-3 M • A solution in which [OH-]=5.0x10-5 M
pH Scale • pH is a log scale • A change in one unit on the pH scale means a tenfold increase or decrease in [H+] • Every time exponent changes by one, the pH changes by one • lowering the pH increases the [H+] • Small pH = acidic solution • Large pH = basic solution
Measuring pH • Use a pH meter • Electronic device that measures the pH of the solution • Use pH paper • Paper has a chemical in it that changes to different colors depending on the pH of the solution
pOH Scale • Same as pH scale, but associated with the [OH-] • Low [OH-] means high pOH • High [OH-] means low pOH
pH and pOH • In an aqueous solution, the sum of the pH and pOH is always 14 • The value 14 corresponds to the negative log of Kw
pH and pOH [H+] > [OH-] [H+] = [OH-] [H+] < [OH-]
Example 1 • A sample of rain in an area with severe air pollution has a pH of 3.5. What is the pOH of this rain water?
Example 2 • The pH of rainwater in a polluted area was found to be 3.50. What is the [H+] for this rainwater?
Example 3 • The pOH of a liquid drain cleaner was found to be 10.50. What is the [OH-] for this cleaner?
Calculating pH for Strong Acids • Strong acids dissociate 100% • Solution contains only H+ and the anion of the acid • Find the concentration of H+ • Find the pH
pH of Strong Acids • Calculate the pH of a solution of 5.0x10-3 M HCl complete dissociation
Reactions of Acids and Bases • Neutralization: The reaction between an acid and a base to form a salt and water • H+ from the acid combines with the OH- from the base to form water • The properties of the both reactants are neutralized • The salt contains the positive ion from the base and the negative ion from the acid
