  1. Acids and BasesChapter 15

  2. Properties of Acids • Sour taste • Change color of vegetable dyes • React with “active” metals • Like Al, Zn, Fe, but not Cu, Ag or Au Zn + 2 HCl ZnCl2 + H2 • Corrosive • React with carbonates, producing CO2 • Marble, baking soda, chalk CaCO3 + 2 HCl CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O • React with bases to form ionic salts • And often water

  3. Properties of Bases • Also Known As Alkalis • Taste bitter • Feel slippery • Change color of vegetable dyes • Different color than acid • Litmus = blue • React with acids to form ionic salts • And often water • Neutralization

  4. Arrhenius Theory • Acids ionize in water to H+1 ions and anions • Bases ionize in water to OH-1 ions and cations • Neutralization reaction involves H+1 combining with OH-1 to make water • H+ ions are protons • Definition only good in water solution • Definition does not explain why ammonia solutions turn litmus blue • Basic without OH- ions

  5. Brønsted-Lowery Theory • H+1 transfer reaction • Since H+1 is a proton, also known as proton transfer reactions • Acid is H+ donor; Base is H+ acceptor • Base must contain an unshared pair of electrons • In the reaction, a proton from the acid molecule is transferred to the base molecule • H forms a bond to lone pair electrons on the base molecule • We consider only 1 H transferred in each reaction • Products are called the Conjugate Acid and Conjugate Base • After reaction, the original acid is the conjugate base and the original base is changed to what is now called the conjugate acid

  6. Brønsted-Lowery Theory H-A + :B  A-1 + H-B+1 A-1 is the conjugate base, H-B+1 is the conjugate acid • Conjugate Acid-Base Pair is either the original acid and its conjugate base or the original base and its conjugate acid • H-A and A-1 are a conjugate acid-base pair • :B and H-B+1 are a conjugate acid-base pair • The conjugate base is always more negative than the original acid; and the conjugate acid is always more positive than the original base

  7. Example #1 Write the conjugate base for the acid H3PO4 • Determine what species you will get if you remove 1 H+1 from the acid • The Conjugate Base will have one more negative charge than the original acid H3PO4  H+1 + H2PO4-1

  8. Brønsted-Lowery Theory • In this theory, instead of the acid, HA, dissociating into H+1(aq) and A-1(aq); The acid donates its H to a water molecule HA + H2O  A-1 + H3O+1 A-1 is the conjugate base, H3O+1 is the conjugate acid • H3O+1is called hydronium ion • In this theory, substances that do not have OH-1 ions can act as a base if they can accept a H+1 from water H2O + :B  OH-1 + H-B+1

  9. Strength of Acids & Bases • The stronger the acid, the more willing it is to donate H • Strong acids donate practically all their H’s HCl + H2O  H3O+1 + Cl-1 • Strong bases will react completely with water to form hydroxides CO3-2 + H2OHCO3-1 + OH-1 • Weak acids donate a small fraction of their H’s • The process is reversible, the conjugate acid and conjugate base can react to form the original acid and base HC2H3O2 + H2O  H3O+1 + C2H3O2-1 • Only small fraction of weak base molecules pull H off water HCO3-1 + H2OH2CO3 + OH-1

  11. Figure 15.2: The relationship of acid strength and conjugate base strength

  12. Multiprotic Acids • Monoprotic acids have 1 acid H, diprotic 2, etc. • In oxyacids only the H on the O is acidic • In strong multiprotic acids, like H2SO4, only the first H is strong; transferring the second H is usually weak H2SO4 + H2O  H3O+1 + HSO4-1 HSO4-1 + H2O  H3O+1 + SO4-2

  13. Water as an Acid and a Base • Amphoteric substances can act as either an acid or a base • Water as an acid, NH3 + H2O NH4+1 + OH-1 • Water as a base, HCl + H2O  H3O+1 + Cl-1 • Water can even react with itself H2O + H2O H3O+1 + OH-1

  14. Autoionization of Water • Water is an extremely weak electrolyte • therefore there must be a few ions present H2O + H2O  H3O+1 + OH-1 • all water solutions contain both H3O+1 and OH-1 • the concentration of H3O+1 and OH-1 are equal • [H3O+1] = [OH-1] = 10-7M @ 25°C • Kw = [H3O+1] x [OH-1] = 1 x 10-14 @ 25°C • Kw is called the ion product constant for water • as [H3O+1] increases, [OH-] decreases

  15. 1 x 10-14 [OH-1] 1 x 10-14 [H+1] [H+1] = [OH-1] = Acidic and Basic Solutions • acidic solutions have a larger [H+1] than [OH-1] • basic solutions have a larger [OH-1] than [H+1] • neutral solutions have [H+1]=[OH-1]= 1 x 10-7 M

  16. Example #2 Determine the [H+1] and [OH-1] in a 10.0 M H+1 solution • Determine the given information and the information you need to find Given [H+1] = 10.0 M Find [OH-1] • Solve the Equation for the Unknown Amount

  17. Example #2 Determine the [H+1] and [OH-1] in a 10.0 M H+1 solution • Convert all the information to Scientific Notation and Plug the given information into the equation. Given [H+1] = 10.0 M = 1.00 x 101 M Kw = 1.0 x 10-14

  18. pH & pOH • The acidity/basicity of a solution is often expressed as pH or pOH • pH = -log[H3O+1] pOH = -log[OH-1] • pHwater = -log[10-7] = 7 = pOHwater • [H+1] = 10-pH [OH-1] = 10-pOH • pH < 7 is acidic; pH > 7 is basic, pH = 7 is neutral • The lower the pH, the more acidic the solution; The higher the pH, the more basic the solution • 1 pH unit corresponds to a factor of 10 difference in acidity • pOH = 14 - pH

  22. Example #3 Calculate the pH of a solution with a [OH-1] = 1.0 x 10-6 M • Find the concentration of [H+1]

  23. Example #3 Calculate the pH of a solution with a [OH-1] = 1.0 x 10-6 M • Enter the [H+1] concentration into your calculator and press the log key log(1.0 x 10-8) = -8.0 • Change the sign to get the pH pH = -(-8.0) = 8.0

  24. Example #4 Calculate the pH and pOH of a solution with a [OH-1] = 1.0 x 10-3 M • Enter the [H+1] or [OH-1]concentration into your calculator and press the log key log(1.0 x 10-3) = -3.0 • Change the sign to get the pH or pOH pOH = -(-3) = 3.0 • Subtract the calculated pH or pOH from 14.00 to get the other value pH = 14.00 – 3.0 = 11.0

  25. Example #5 Calculate the [OH-1] of a solution with a pH of 7.41 • If you want to calculate [OH-1] use pOH, if you want [H+1] use pH. It may be necessary to convert one to the other using 14 = pH + pOH pOH = 14.00 – 7.41 = 6.59 • Enter the pH or pOH concentration into your calculator • Change the sign of the pH or pOH -pOH = -(6.59) • Press the button(s) on you calculator to take the inverse log or 10x [OH-1] = 10-6.59 = 2.6 x 10-7

  26. Calculating the pH of a Strong, Monoprotic Acid • A strong acid will dissociate 100% HA  H+1 + A-1 • Therefore the molarity of H+1 ions will be the same as the molarity of the acid • Once the H+1 molarity is determined, the pH can be determined pH = -log[H+1]

  27. Example #6 Calculate the pH of a 0.10 M HNO3 solution • Determine the [H+1] from the acid concentration HNO3 H+1 + NO3-1 0.10 M HNO3 = 0.10 M H+1 • Enter the [H+1] concentration into your calculator and press the log key log(0.10) = -1.00 • Change the sign to get the pH pH = -(-1.00) = 1.00

  28. Buffered Solutions • Buffered Solutions resist change in pH when an acid or base is added to it. • Used when need to maintain a certain pH in the system • Blood • A buffer solution contains a weak acid and its conjugate base • Buffers work by reacting with added H+1 or OH-1 ions so they do not accumulate and change the pH • Buffers will only work as long as there is sufficient weak acid and conjugate base molecules present
