Acids and Bases. Take 2!. pH. pH depends on the concentration of hydrogen ion (H + )in the solution Lots of hydrogen ion = low pH Very little hydrogen ion = high pH. What’s concentration?. Involves the amount of solute (solute is the dissolved stuff) and the volume of the solution

Acids and Bases Take 2!
pH • pH depends on the concentration of hydrogen ion (H+)in the solution • Lots of hydrogen ion = low pH • Very little hydrogen ion = high pH
What’s concentration? • Involves the amount of solute (solute is the dissolved stuff) and the volume of the solution • Demo of concentration
Vocabulary • Dilute: • Verb – to make less concentrated, usually by adding solvent (water) • Adjective - of or pertaining to a solution that has a low concentration of solute
Diluting acids • Does the amount of acid change when you add water to it? • What changes? • Will the pH change? • How much?
Molarity (M) • Concentration is usually measured in units of molarity. It is defined as: • Molarity = • Solute could be acid or base moles!
Dilution • When you add water to the acid, you dilute it, but the number of moles of acid DO NOT change. Only the volume of the liquid solution changes.
Molarity Practice • If 3.00 moles of acid are added to enough water to make 3.00 liters of solution, what is the concentration (molarity) of the acid solution?
Molarity Practice • If 1.00 moles of acid are added to enough water to make 4.00 liters of solution, what is the concentration (molarity) of the acid solution?
Molarity Practice • If 4.00 moles of base are added to enough water to make 2.00 liters of solution, what is the concentration (molarity) of the acid solution?
Molarity Practice • In 0.200 L of a 1.00 M acid solution, how many moles of acid are there?
Molarity Practice • In 0.500 L of a 0.200 M acid solution, how many moles of acid are there?
Neutralization • When acid and base are added: • Acid + base water + a salt • Remember salts include almost all ionic compounds
Neutralization • Example • HCl + NaOH H2O + NaCl • This one makes water and table salt!
Neutralization • Example • HCH3COO + NaOH H2O + NaCH3COO • This one makes water and a different salt!
Forming water • Water is made because the H+ from the acid and the hydroxide ion (OH-) from the base get together to form water. • If you don’t add exactly the same moles of acid and base, you will have more than just water and salt!
Did I add too much Base? • How could you know whether you’ve exactly cancelled out the acid? • Ans: TITRATION!!!!!!! • And – use an indicator or check the pH
Titration • Add Base carefully to acid and measure EXACTLY how much was used. • The picture shows a burette tube being used to drop base in acid.
Measuring Volumes • The meniscus is the curve at the top. Measure from the bottom of the meniscus. • Notice that the low numbers are on top!
Measuring Volumes • Notice that you can see if the meniscus is between lines or right on a line. • Your volume measurement should have 2 decimal places.
Measuring Volumes • What volume is this indicating?
Phenolphthalein • It turns pink in base – but is clear in acid. • The range is 8-9 • This needs to be swirled to see if the pink will go away!
ENDPOINT • The titration is done at the ENDPOINT. • That’s where the solution stays pink! (hopefully light pink, otherwise there is too much base!)
Calculations • The whole point is to calculate the concentration of the acid or base. • At the endpoint moles of acid = moles of base
Calculations • And remember • Moles = molarity X volume • so MaVa = MbVb Molarity X volume = molarity X volume
Practice calculations • 10.0 mL of a solution of potassium hydroxide was titrated with a 0.10 M solution of hydrochloric acid. 13.5 mL of the acid was required for neutralization. Calculate the concentration of the potassium hydroxide solution.
Practice Calc. • Write down everything you know. • ACID BASE • Hydrochloric Acid Potassium hydroxide • Volume used = 13.5mL Volume used = 10.0 mL Va Vb • Conc. = 0.10 M Concentration=? Ma Mb • Then set up MaVa = MbVb
Answer • 0.1M x 13.5 = Mb x 10.0 • Mb = 0.135 M
