Arrhenius Definition of Acids and Bases Acids dissociate to produce H+ ions in aqueous (water) solutions HCl H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) Bases dissociate to produce OH- ions in aqueous (water) solutions NaOH Na+ (aq) + OH-(aq)
Dissociation • Dissociation: when a compound splits apart into ions in solution. How might these dissociate? H2SO4 KOH DO NOW: Packet page 3, #7 Practice Writing Dissociation Equations
Note: • Acids and Bases are only reactive if their ions are dissociated (when aqueous) • HCl (l) = hydrogen chloride • HCl (aq) = hydrochloric acid
Some Common AcidsSee Table K HCl hydrochloric acid HNO3 nitric acid H3PO4 phosphoric acid H2SO4 sulfuric acid HC2H3O2 acetic acid 6
The Hydronium Ion (H30+) • Acids produce the H+ ion • This is just a “bare proton” and is very reactive. • It immediately forms a coordinate covalent bond with nearby water molecules to form (H30+). Do Now: Draw the formation of the Hydronium Ion
Organic Acids • Contain carbon • Only one of the hydrogens is “acidic” and dissociates in solution • Ex: Acetic Acid • HC2H3O2 or CH3COOH
Naming Acids (Honors) • Binary Acids • (Contain 2 elements only) • Ex: HCl, HBr, H2S, HF • Hydro __________ ic Acid
Naming Acids (Honors) • Ternary Acids • (Contain hydrogen and a polyatomic ion) • Do NOT start with “Hydro” • Look at name of polyatomic ion • If it ends in “ate” the acid ends in “ic” • If it ends in “ite” the acid ends in “ous”
HBr HNO3 H3PO4 HNO2 H2C2O4 HClO HBrO HClO4 H2S HIO3 Name These Acids (Honors)
HBr = hydrobromic acid HNO3 = nitric acid H3PO4 = phosphoric acid HNO2 = nitrous acid H2C2O4 = oxalic acid HClO = hypochlorous acid HBrO = hypobromous acid HClO4 = perchloric acid H2S = hydrosulfuric acid HIO3 = iodic acid Name These Acids (Honors)
Naming Bases • All Arrhenius bases contain the hydroxide ion • Name ends in “hydroxide” • Ex: LiOH = lithium hydroxide • Note: • There are “Non” Arrhenius Bases, more on them later
Some Common BasesSee Table L NaOH sodium hydroxide KOH potassium hydroxide Ba(OH)2 barium hydroxide Mg(OH)2 magnesium hydroxide Al(OH)3 aluminum hydroxide 15
Important Note • There are no “organic bases” (containing carbon). C2H5OH for example is not a base. It is an alcohol. The OH on this molecule does not dissociate to form OH- (hydroxide ion)
Salts • “Salts” are ionic compounds that are not acids or bases. • Metal cation (+) & nonmetal anion (-) • Ex: NaCl, MgSO4, Li2S

Electrolytes • Acids & Bases & Salts are electrolytes • Produce free ions when dissolved • Solutions will conduct. • More concentrated = more conductive. Do Now: Practice Ditto on Identifying Electrolytes http://www.kentchemistry.com/links/AcidsBases/Electrolytes.htm
Taste & Feel • Acids: taste sour and give a burning sensation if touched • Bases: taste bitter and feel slippery if touched DO NOT attempt to determine an acid or base by taste or touch ever in the lab!

Acids “Corrode” Certain Metals • See Reference Table J • Metals above Hydrogen on the table will react with acids to form a salt and H2 gas • Single Replacement Reaction 2Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)
Will an acid react with these metals? • If so complete and balance the single replacement reaction. Mg + HNO3 Cu + HCl Ca + H2SO4

Bases DO NOT corrode metals • Interactive: • Acid, Bases and Metals BBC (good for Indicators) • http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks3bitesize/science/chemical_material_behaviour/acids_bases_metals/activity.shtml DO NOW: Packet page 2 and 3, # 4, #5
pH Scale • Used to help determine how acidic or basic something is. • pH = 7 Neutral • pH < 7 Acidic • pH > 7 Basic
Acids & Bases Neutralize Each Other • H+ ion and OH- ions will join together to form neutral water. • Reaction is slightly exothermic (See Table I) H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) → H2O (l)
