Chapter 16: Equilibrium in Acid-Base Systems 16.2a: Bronsted-Lowry Acid-Base Concept
Definition of Acid and Base Bronsted-Lowry independently created by two scientists around the same time (1923) looked at how acid/base acted in reactions instead of their properties in aqueous solutions theoretical definitions based upon proton transfer during a reaction
Proton transfer concept • Acid: molecule or ion that is a proton (H+) donor • HCl + H2O H3O+ + Cl- • Base: molecule or ion that is a proton (H+) acceptor • NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH-
Bronsted-Lowry concept • B-L acid a proton donor; B-L base a proton acceptor • B-L neutralization is a competition for protons from the SA to the SB • B-L rxtn. eqtn. is an eqtn. that shows this transfer of protons from one entity to another
Acids or Bases? C5H5N base (weak) Mg(OH)2 base (strong) HF acid (weak) NH3 base (weak) H2CO3 acid (weak) H2SO4 acid (strong) KOH base (strong) CH3NH2 base (weak) HC2H3O2 acid (weak) HI acid (strong)
Acid – Base Reactions Identify the acids and bases of the following reactions C6H5NH2 + H2O C6H5NH3+ + OH- B A HNO3 + H2O H3O+ + NO3- A B HCH3COO + H2O H3O+ + CH3COO- A B
Acid-Base Reactions Amphoteric Substances proper term used in B-L reactions a substance that can react as either acid or base depending on what they are mixed with example: water, HSO4- Amphiprotic incorrect term to use with B-L rxtns. refers to an entity (ion or molecule)
Amphoteric Water Water as a base (proton acceptor) Water as an acid (proton donor)
Conjugate Acid-Base PairsConjugate acids and bases are always created by a B-L reaction (as products) Conjugate base an acid that has lost a H+ missing a hydrogen ex: H2PO4-, OH-, Cl- Conjugate acid a base that has gained a H+ has an extra hydrogen NH4+, C6H5NH3+, H3O+ A pair of substances with formulas that differ only by a proton is called a conjugate acid-base pair
Identify the parts of these reactions C6H5NH2 + H2O C6H5NH3+ + OH- base acid CA CB HNO3 + H2O H3O+ + NO3- acid base CA CB HCH3COO + H2O H3O+ + CH3COO- acid base CA CB NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH- base acid CA CB
