  1. The Acid Test Acids, Bases, and pH

  2. 1. What is pH? • pH measures acidity and alkalinity (how basic) a liquid is*

  3. 2. Describe the pH Scale The next few slides will illustrate this point. Be sure to write small and get it all!

  4. Range of pH scale • The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14. • There are no units of measure for pH *

  9. 4. How can the pH of a solution be determined? There will be several slides showing various ways to measure pH. Be sure to get them all!

  10. Litmus paper • Litmus paper cannot tell you the exact pH of a substance. • It can only tell you if it is an acid or a base • Blue litmus turns pink in the presence of an acid • Red litmus turns blue in the presence of a base*

  11. pH paper • pH paper can tell you approximate pH values. • By placing one end of the pH paper in the solution it will turn a color which can be matched to the color code key. *

  12. Indicators • Indicators: • Weak organic acids and bases whose colors differ from the colors of their conjugate acids or bases. • The color is best viewed from above against a white background

  13. Acid / Base Indicators • Indicator • Lower Color • pH Range • Upper Color • methyl violet • yellow-green • 0.0 - 2.5 • violet • methyl orange • red • 2.5 - 4.4 • yellow • congo red • blue • 3.0 - 5.0 • red • bromocresol green • yellow • 4.5 - 5.5 • blue • methyl red • red • 4.8 - 6.0 • yellow • bromocresol purple • yellow-green • 5.4 - 6.8 • violet • bromothymol blue • yellow • 6.0 - 7.6 • blue • phenol red • yellow • 6.4 - 8.2 • red-violet • cresol red • yellow • 7.1 - 8.8 • violet • phenolphthalein • colorless • 8.3 - 10.0 • dark pink • Phenolphthalein is a common indicator to use in neutralization titrations. The solution is considered neutral when the solution holds a very faint pink color for half a minute or more. • alizarin yellow R • yellow • 9.9 - 11.8 • dark orange Table of Indicators

  14. pH Meter • The most precise and usually more accurate way to measure pH is using a pH meter which directly measures the amount of [H3O+] in the solution

  15. Now Complete the HW--P. 263 #4, 5, & 6 Write the question and answer. *

  16. 5. What are the properties of an acid? • Acids • Taste sour • Donate a H+ • pH less than 7 • Turn litmus paper red • Turn bromothymol blue to yellow • Turn phenolphthalein colorless • Neutralize bases

  17. 6. What are the properties of bases? • Bases • Taste bitter • Usually ends in -OH • pH greater than 7 • Turn litmus paper blue • Turn bromothymol blue to blue • Turn phenolphthalein pink • Feel slippery to touch • Neutralize acids*

  18. Learning Check AB2 Identify each as characteristic of an A) acid or B) base ____ 1. Sour taste ____ 2. Produces OH- in aqueous solutions ____ 3. Chalky taste ____ 4. Is an electrolyte ____ 5. Produces H+ in aqueous solutions*

  21. Describe each solution as: 1) acid2) base or 3) neutral. A. _1_ soda B. _2_ soap C. _1_ coffee D. _1_ wine E. _3_ water F. _1_ grapefruit* G. _1__ rain H. _1__ vinegar I. __1_ saliva (depends on what you ate recently) _3__ salt water __1_ ketchup _2__ dishwashing detergent Answers of the Day

  22. 7. What compounds are formed when an acid reacts with a base? When acid and bases with equal amounts of hydrogen ion H+ and hydroxide ions OH- are mixed, the resulting solution is neutral. NaOH (aq) + HCl(aq) NaCl + H2O base acid salt water Ca(OH)2 + 2 HCl CaCl2 + 2H2O base acid salt water*

  23. Learning Check N2 Select the correct group of coefficients for the following neutralization equations A. __ HCl + __ Al(OH)3 __AlCl3 + __ H2O 1) 1, 3, 3, 1 2) 3, 1, 1, 1 3) 3, 1, 1 3 B.__ Ba(OH)2 + __H3PO4 __Ba3(PO4)2 + __ H2O 1) 3, 2, 2, 2 2) 3, 2, 1, 6 3) 2, 3, 1, 6

  24. Solution N2 A. 3HCl + 1Al(OH)31AlCl3 + 3H2O B. 3Ba(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 1Ba3(PO4)2 + 6H2O*

  25. 8. Antacids A practical use of the neutralization process

  26. Antacids • Used to neutralize stomach acid (HCl) • Many contain one or more weak bases Alka-Seltzer: NaHCO3, citric acid, and aspirin Di-gel: CaCO3 and Mg(OH)2 Gelusil: Al(OH)3and Mg(OH)2 Maalox: Al(OH)3and Mg(OH)2 Mylanta: Al(OH)3 and Mg(OH)2*

  27. More Antacids Milk of Magnesia: Mg(OH)2 Rolaids: AlNa(OH)2CO3 aluminum sodium dihydroxy carbonate Tums: CaCO3 Tempo: CaCO3,Al(OH)3,Mg(OH)2*

  28. How much more acidic is a solution of pH 2 than a solution of pH 6? 3 times more acidic 10 times more acidic 100 times more acidic 1,000 times more acidic 10,000 times more acidic

  29. Answer • E) 10,000 times more acidic • Every one pH value that a solution decreases, it is 10 times more acidic • Example, normal rain is about 5.5. If its pH falls to 4.5 it is now 10 times more acidic. • Some industrialized areas have had pH values measured to be as low as 2.5 or 1,000 times more acidic

  30. pH measures the concentration of hydrogen ion [H+] in a solution • So every time you increase one number on the pH scale the acidity (or alkalinity) increases by a power of 10! • The concentration of pH = 2 solution is 4 pH values from a pH = 6 solution or • The pH = 2 solution is 10,000 times more acidic than the pH = 6 solution

  31. What does this mean for the environment? An in-depth look at acid rain

  32. Sources of Acid Rain • Power stations • Oil refineries • Coal with high S content • Car and truck emissions • Bacterial decomposition, and lighting hitting N2*

  33. Acid Rain 2. Reactions in the atmosphere form SO3 2SO2 + O2 2 SO3*

  34. Acid Rain 3. Reactions with atmosphere water form acids SO3 + H2O  H2SO4 sulfuric acid NO + H2O  HNO2 nitrous acid HNO2 + H2O  HNO3 nitric acid*

  35. Acid Rain 4. Effects of Acid Rain • Decline in fish populations in rivers and lasts due to toxic effect of Al leached from soil by acid rain • Extensive fish kills in spring from runoff due to accumulation of large amounts of acid on the snow • Dissolves minerals Mg, Ca, and K from the soil and waxy coatings that protect leaves from bacteria • Corrodes metals, textiles, paper and leather*

  36. Acid Rain Formation of acid rain: 1. Emission of sulfur and nitrogen oxides from the burning of fuels especially coal with high S content, power stations, oil refineries, vehicles as well as bacterial decomposition, and lighting hitting N2 SO2 26 million tons in 1980 NO and NO2 22 million tons in 1980 Mt. St Helens (1980) 400,000 tons SO2*
