ACIDS & BASES- Electrolytes: Liquid that allows electricity to flow. Dissociation: Electrolytes break down into ions that conduct electricity.
ACIDS & BASES REVIEW Acids turn Litmus Red. Acids have a pH below 7. Acids are clear in Phenolphthalein. Bases turn Litmus Blue. Bases have a pH above 7. Bases are pink in Phenolphthalein.
Steven Arrhenius (1887) • Arrhenius Acids dissociate to form Hydrogen ions (H+) (aq) • Arrhenius Bases dissociate to form Hydroxide ions (OH-) HCl H+ + Cl- NaOH OH- + Na+
Arrhenius • Strong acids ionize completely, weak ones do not • High concentration of H+ • the H3O+ (hydronium ion) is equivalent to the Hydrogen Ion.
BRONSTED-LOWRY THEORY • Johannes Bronsted & T. M. Lowry • Is based on the transfer of a Proton. • Bronsted-Lowry Acid: Anything that can donate a proton (H+ ion). • Bronsted-Lowry Base: A proton acceptor.
Conjugate Pairs- • This is a pair that differs by one Proton. • Conjugate Acid = Conjugate Base plus a H+
Conjugate Pairs- They have an inverse relationship. The stronger the conjugate acid, the weaker the base.
Conjugate Pairs- Strong Acids: Completely transfers its Protons Weak Acids: Only partially transfers.
Every acid-base reaction contains two acids + two bases HF + H2O H3O+ + F- HNO3 + H2O H3O+ + NO2-
Amphoteric Substances- • Amphoteric: When a substance can act as a base or acid. +1 -1 H2O + HCl H3O + Cl -1 -1 H2O + Br HBr + OH

pH- Soren Sorensen (1909) • an indicator
pH • exponent of the [H3O+] concentration. pH = -log [H3O+] or pH = -log [H+]

STRONG ACIDS • These Dissociate fully. • They exist entirely as Ions. • They include the following: HCl HNO3 H2SO4 HBr HClO3 HI HClO4 These completely Ionize- +1 -1 HClO4 [H](aq) + ClO4 (aq)

a STRONG ACID Problem • What is the Hydrogen Ion concentration, when HCl has a pH of 2.34? +1 pH = -Log [H] 2.34 = - Log [X] The Hydrogen Ion concentration is .0046
STRONG BASES • As with the Acids, these fully dissociate. • They include the Alkali Metal Hydroxides. Such as: NaOH LiOH • They also include some of the heavier Alkaline Earth Metal Hydroxides. Such as: Sr(OH)2

WEAK ACIDS • Most Acids are Weak acids. • They only Ionize partially. • HA stands for a weak acid. +1 -1 HA (aq) ↔H(aq) + A(aq)
ACID DISSOCIATION CONSTANT • The Acid Dissociation Constant is represented by Ka. • This measures the extent of the Ionization. • The larger the Ka , the stronger the Acid. • Stronger acids have a larger Percent Ionization.
ACID DISSOCIATION CONSTANT +1 -1 Ka = [H] [A] / HA Appendix D (page 1062) has a list of the Ka ‘s.
POLYPROTIC ACIDS Polyprotic Acids have more than 1 Ionizable Hydrogen Ion. Ka1 = The Acid Dissociation Constant Ka2 = The Acid Dissociation Constant for the removal of the 2nd proton. This is always much smaller than the Ka1.
POLYPROTIC ACIDS • It is always easier to remove the first Proton than it is to remove the second one. • The Ka1 is so much higher than the Ka2. +1 • Please note that the H(aq) usually comes from the first Ionization, so treat it as Monoprotic.
