Acids and Bases • Lecture 1: • Common Acids and Bases • Definitions • Equilibria • Conjugate acid-base pairs • Autoionisation of water • pH • Lecture 2: • Strong Acids and Bases • Weak Acids and Bases • Polyprotic Acids Reproduced from ‘The Extraordinary Chemistry of Ordinary Things, C.H. Snyder, Wiley, 2002(Page 245)
Completely ionise in water: e.g. HCl(aq) H+(aq) + Cl–(aq) Strong Acids and Bases • Equilibrium lies completely to the right, Ka . Strong acids H2SO4, HCl, HBr, HI, HNO3, HClO4 Strong basesAll hydroxides of Groups 1 & 2 (except Be): NaOH, Ca(OH)2, …
Examples What is the pH of a 0.1 M HCl solution? HCl(aq H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) [H+] = 0.1 M • Thus [H+] = 0.1 M and pH = – log10 [H+] = 1.0 • What is the pH of a 0.002 M NaOH solution? • Completely ionised, so [OH– ] = 0.002 M, • pOH = – log10 [OH– ] = – log10 (0.002) = 2.7 • pH = 14 – 2.7 = 11.3
Acid dissociation constant: HA(aq) H+(aq) + A–(aq) pKa = – log10Ka Weak Acids • Most acids or bases areweak • they do not completely ionise in water
Relationship between Ka and pKa • The larger the value of Ka, the stronger the acid and the lowerthe value of pKa. • Ka = 1.02 x 10-2 then pKa = -log10(1.02 x 10-2) = 1.991 • pKa = 1.991 then Ka = 10-1.991 = 1.02 x 10-2
Find the pH of 0.1 M acetic acid (CH3COOH (HAc)) Example • DATA: pKa = 4.7, Ka = 10-4.7 HAc(aq) H+(aq) + Ac–(aq) Ka = 10-4.7 +x -x +x x x 0.1 - x
Since the equilibrium constant is very small we assume x << 0.1, i.e. ( 0.1 – x ) 0.1 10-4.7 x2 / 0.1 x2 0.1 10-4.7 = 10-5.7 x 10-5.7 = 10-2.85 As pH = – log10 [H+ ] pH = – log10 x = – log10 10-2.85 = 2.9 Check: x = 10-2.85 = 1.4 10-3 << 0.1 or or (0.1 – x ) = 0.0986 M ~ 0.1 M Example (Continued) 5 % rule
Ionisation of a weak base: Weak Bases NH3(aq) + H2O(l) NH4+(aq) + OH–(aq) • Equilibrium constant is called base ionisation constant, Kb : • Tactic: calculate pOH and then pH, given Kb.
Acid (HA):HA(aq) H+(aq) + A–(aq) Relationship Between pKa and pKb • For conjugate systems (Brønsted-Lowry acid-base pairs) • Conjugate base (A– ):A–(aq) + H2O(l) HA(aq) + OH–(aq) pKa + pKb = 14 • We only need values of pKa , since pKb = 14 – pKa
Find the pH of 1.0 x 10–2 M NaHCO2 (pKa of formic acid (HCO2H) is 4.1) Example • pKb = 14 – pKa = 14 – 4.1 = 9.9 HCO2–(aq) + H2O(l) OH–(aq) + HCO2H(aq) +x -x +x x x 0.01 - x
Example (Continued) • x = [OH–] so pOH = -log10(10-5.95) = 5.95 • pH = 14 – 5.95 = 8.05 = 8.1 (one significant figure)
removing more protons is harder: increasing pKa = decreasing Ka :Ka1 > Ka2 >Ka3 reason: harder to remove +ve charge against increasing -ve charge large difference in pKa values only need to consider one equilibrium at a time (simplifies maths!) H3PO4(aq) H+(aq) + H2PO4–(aq)pKa1 = 2.2 H2PO4–(aq) H+(aq) + HPO42–(aq)pKa2 = 7.2 HPO42-(aq) H+(aq) + PO43–(aq)pKa3 = 12.4 Polyprotic Acids

The pKa of boric acid is 9.24. • (a) 0.70 (b) 2.73 (c) 4.97 (d) 5.12 (e) 5.87 • 3.
