Section 2.4—Defining, Naming & Writing Acids & Bases We need to know how acids and bases behave when talking about ant-acids!
H +1 +1 H water O O H H H H Acids – Arrhenius Definition • A compound that has a H+ cation that it can donate to water to produce the hydronium ion (H3O+1) hydronium ion By this definition, if an acid is to give a H+1 to water, then all acids will have hydrogen as the cation (first element written).
- H O H H How do Acids produce Hydronium? water acid Hydrogen cation with some anion
- H O H H How do Acids produce Hydronium? +1
- H O H H How do Acids produce Hydronium? +1 Hydronium ion Anion
Naming Non-oxygen Acids • These compounds : • Start with “H” (more than 1 “H” is OK, too). • Have only 2 elements in total (One of them is hydrogen the other is NOT oxygen.) • Examples: HCl H2S • To name these compounds: • Use “hydro____ic acid” • Fill in the blank with the anion’s name without the last syllable
Example #1 HBr
Example #1 It’s an acid Hydrogen cation HBr Hydrobromic acid Bromine No oxygen Use “hydro___ic”
Naming Oxygen Acids • These compounds have: • Start with “H” (more than 1 “H” is OK, too). • Contain a polyatomic ion that has oxygen in it. • To name these compounds: • Use “___ic acid” for “-ate” anions; the blank is filled in with the polyatomic ions name without the suffix. • Use “___ous acid” for “-ite” anions; the blank is filled in with the polyatomic ions name without the suffix. Examples: HNO2 is . . . HNO3 is . . .
Example #2 H2SO3
Example #2 It’s an acid Hydrogen cation H2SO3 Sulfite ion “-ite” ion Use “___ous” acid Sulfurous acid
Example #3 H2SO4
Example #3 It’s an acid Hydrogen cation H2SO4 Sulfate ion “-ate” ion Use “___ic” Sulfuric acid
Let’s Practice HI H2CO3 HC2H3O2 H3PO3 Example: Write the name for the following compounds
Let’s Practice HI H2CO3 HC2H3O2 H3PO3 hydroiodic acid carbonic acid acetic acid phosphorous acid Example: Write the name for the following compounds
“Hydro-” acids • To write these formulas: • The cation is H+1 • Write the anion and charge • Balance the charges by adding the appropriate subscript to the hydrogen cation
Example #4 Hydrofluoric acid
Example #4 H+1 Hydrogen cation Hydrofluoric acid Only one other element F-1
Example #4 H+1 Hydrogen cation Hydrofluoric acid Does not contain oxygen H+1F-1 F-1 HF
NON “Hydro-” acids • To write these formulas: • The cation is H+1 • If it is an “-ic” acid, the anion is the “-ate” polyatomic ion • If it is an “-ous” acid, the anion is the “-ite” polyatomic ion • Add subscript to the hydrogen cation to balance charges
Example #5 Carbonic acid
Example #5 H+1 Hydrogen cation Carbonic acid From the “___ate” anion CO3-2
Example #5 H+1 Hydrogen cation Carbonic acid H+CO32- From the “___ate” anion CO3-2 H2CO3
Example #6 Nitrous acid
Example #6 H+1 Hydrogen cation Nitrous acid From the “___ite” anion NO2-1
Example #6 H+1 Hydrogen cation Nitrous acid H+NO2- From the “___ite” anion HNO2 NO2-1
Let’s Practice Phosphoric acid Hydroiodic acid Acetic acid Perchloric acid Example: Write the formula for the following acids
Let’s Practice Phosphoric acid Hydroiodic acid Acetic acid Perchloric acid H3PO4 HI HC2H3O2 HClO4 Example: Write the formula for the following acids
Bases • Objective: • Define and distinguish between acids & bases • Explain and use nomenclature rules for naming and writing formulas for bases
-1 O H Bases – Arrhenius Definition • Bases produce the hydroxide ion in water • MOST bases will be ionic compounds with the OH-1 anion. (Ex. NaOH or Ca(OH)2) • MOST IMPORTANT EXCEPTION is NH3 (ammonia). • NH3 + H2O NH4+1 + OH-1 Hydroxide Ion
Naming Bases • Most bases are just ionic compounds with “hydroxide” as their anion • The most common exception to this is ammonia. NH3 is a base even though it doesn’t contain “-OH” as the anion.
Example #7 NaOH
Example #7 Sodium NaOH Sodium Hydroxide Hydroxide
Example #8 Iron (III)hydroxide Fe+3 OH-1 criss –cross the number of the charges Fe(OH)3
