Chemistry Chapter 16 Acid-Base Titration and pH
Self-Ionization of Water H2O + H2O H3O+ + OH-
Kw – Ionization Constant for Water In pure water at 25 C: [H3O+] = 1 x 10-7 mol/L [OH-] = 1 x 10-7 mol/L Kw is a constant at 25 C: Kw = [H3O+][OH-] Kw = (1 x 10-7)(1 x 10-7) = 1 x 10-14
Calculating pH, pOH pH = -log10(H3O+) pOH = -log10(OH-) Relationship between pH and pOH pH + pOH = 14 Finding [H3O+], [OH-] from pH, pOH [H3O+] = 10-pH [OH-] = 10-pOH
