Super Acids/Super Bases A very concentrated (really hot) strong acid can have a pH below 0! (-0.5, -1) A very concentrated (really hot) strong base can have a pH above 14! (15, 16)
Relationship Between Hydronium Concentration [H3O+(aq)] and pH pH = 1 [H3O+(aq)] = 1.00 x10-1 What’s the relationship? pH = 3 [H3O+(aq)] = 1.00 x10-3 pH = 5 [H3O+(aq)] = 1.00 x10-5 pH = 9 [H3O+(aq)] = 1.00 x10-9 pH = 13 [H3O+(aq)] = 1.00 x10-13 Relationship: [H30+(aq)] is related to pH by powers of 10.
Formula’s (pH “Box”) Kw = [H+][OH-] [H+] [OH-] pH = -log[H+] pOH = -log[OH-] [H+] = 1x10-pH [OH-] = 1x10-pOH pH pOH pH + pOH = 14
Whenever you deal with pH and pOH, all you need is!..... pH + pOH = 14 pH/H3O+ pOH/OH- Perfect Diamond Shape -log[OH-(aq)] pOH= pH = -log[H3O+(aq)] Mr. K’s pH/pOH Diamond of Awesome-ness 1 x 10-pOH [OH-(aq)]= 1 x 10-pH [H3O+(aq)]= =Kw [H3O+(aq)] [OH-(aq)]= 1.00 x 10-14

Example: 1 1 HNO3(aq) + H2O(l) ↔ H3O+(aq) + NO3-(aq) 1 1 C = 0.050 mol/L -log[H3O+(aq)] pH = -log[0.050] pH = pH = What is the pH of 0.050mol/L HNO3?
Example: 1 1 HBr(aq) 1 + H2O(l) ↔ H3O+(aq) + Br-(aq) 1 C = ? [H3O+(aq)]= 1 x 10-pH [H3O+(aq)]= 1 x 10-4.4 pH + pOH = 14 [H3O+(aq)]= pH = 14 - pOH pH = 14 – 9.6 = 4.4 What is the amount concentration of HBr in a solution that has a pOH of 9.6?
Example: N G 1 1 HBr(aq) 1 + H2O(l) ↔ H3O+(aq) + Br-(aq) 1 C = ? C = C = (N/G) (1/1) [HBr(aq)] = What is the amount concentration of HBr in a solution that has a pOH of 9.6?
Why is the concentration of HBr the same as the hydronium ion concentration? Look at the dissociation/ionization equation HBr(aq) H +(aq) + Br -(aq) HBr(aq) + H2O(l) H30+(aq) + Br-(aq) There is a 1:1 relationship between HBr and the ions
Acid – Base Indicators: Substances that change colour due to the acidity of a solution.
They are a weak acid – conjugate base pair that exist in two forms (two different colours) due to presence or lack of a single proton (Hydrogen atom) in the chemical formula.
Because of the complex nature of the chemical formula of each indicator. • Abbreviations are usually used to make using indicators less complex. • Ex: HLt – Lt- are the acid and conjugate base of litumus with Hlt being the red form and Lt- being the blue form
Example Reactions Placing red litmus paper in a base: HLt(aq) + NaOH (aq) H2O (l) + Na+ (aq) + Lt- (aq) Placing blue litmus in an acid: HCl (aq) + Lt- (aq)HLt (aq) + Cl- (aq)
Universal Indicators An indicator substance that changes a variety of different colours to indicate a more precise acidity of the solution being tested. ***most indicators DO NOT DO THIS*** **Usually only do two colours**
Uses of Indicators • Mark the end point of a titration (chp. 8) • to estimate the pH of a solution. ***We can use a series of indicators to get a fairly precise pH instead of using the more expensive pH meter.**** pH = 2.8 – 3.2 2.8-8.0 0-4.8 7 0 14 0-3.2 Indicator Table (Pg. 10)
Example (You Try) 0-8.2 Phenolphthalein 7.6-8.2 7.6-14 Bromothymol Blue pH = 7.6-8.0 8.0-14 Phenol Red
Defining Acids • According to the modified Arrhenius theory • Acids are substances that react with water (ionize in water) to produce hydronium ions. • Alternately, according to Bronsted – Lowry theory • Acids are proton donors that become basic (conjugate bases) once they donate their proton.
Example CH3COOH(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + CH3COO-(aq) This reaction can be explained using either definition and requires the acid react with water. H2O(l) H3O+(aq) CH3COOH(aq) CH3COO-(aq)
Example • How can we explain using either the modified arrhenius theory or the Bronsted-Lowry theory that a solution of NaHSO4 will turn blue litmus paper red? Acidic Arhenius Bronsted-Lowry NaHSO4(aq) Na+(aq) HSO4-(aq) SO42-(aq) HSO4-(aq) + + H2O(l) → H3O+(aq)
Example • How can we explain using either the modified arrhenius theory or the Bronsted-Lowry theory that a solution of NaHSO4 will turn blue litmus paper red? Acidic Bronsted-Lowry Na+(aq) HSO4-(aq) SO42-(aq) + + H2O(l) → H3O+(aq) HSO4-(aq) Conjugate Base Acid
Bases • So far bases have been metal hydroxides that can be explained by simple dissociation to produce hydroxide ions according to the Arrhenius theory. Ex: Ca(OH)2(aq) Ca2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)
Modified Arhenius Theory • The original Arrhenius theory doesn’t account for the basic nature of ammonia or baking soda. • The modified Arrhenius theory, that bases ionize in water (react with water) to produce hydroxide ions. Helps to explain why such substances are in fact basic.
Example Na2CO3(s) 2Na+(aq) + CO32-(aq) Then, CO32-(aq) + H2O(l)OH-(aq) + HCO3-(aq) • The Bronsted – Lowry definition of a base as a proton acceptor can also help explain this reaction.
How did we know that the carbonate ion was going to produce a basic solution and that the sodium ion was a spectator? • Bases are proton acceptors and usually have a negative charge (water and ammonia are exceptions) and acids are proton donors. Therefore, the sodium ion cannot act as an acid or a base. Na does not have H to give away and is + so it can accept an H.
A Special Case • Nonmetal oxides in water will form acidic solutions. There is a two step process to explain how this occurs.
Ex: • CO2(g) + H2O(l) H2CO3(aq) • H2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + HCO3-(aq)
