Chapter 19 Acids and Bases
Ions in Solution Aqueous solutions contain H+ ions and OH- ions If a solution has more H+ ions than OH- ions it is acidic If a solution has more OH- ions than H+ ions it is basic If a solution has the same number of OH- ions and H+ ions it is neutral
Properties of Acids Properties acids – Produce H+ ions when dissolved in water taste sour Turn Blue Litmus paper Pink React with metals to produce Hydrogen Gas good at dissolving things (food in stomach, teeth to form cavities, mineral deposits in coffeemaker) Have a pH of 0 to < 7 Conduct electricity
Properties of Bases Properties bases – taste bitter feel slippery tend to produce OH- ions when placed in water turn Red Litmus Paper Blue Have a pH of 7 to 14 Conduct electricity
Two models of Acids and Bases Arrhenius Bronsted-Lowry Two similar but different explanations, both are correct
Arrhenius Acid - produces H+ in aqueous solution HCl (g) H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) Base – produces OH- in aqueous solution NaOH (s) Na+ (aq) + OH- (aq) Explains most Acids and Bases, but not all
Acid-Base Neutralization Reaction When an acid and a base are mixed together: acid + base A salt and water are formed: a salt + water remember a salt is any ionic compound
Examples HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCl (aq) + H2O (l) Acid + Base A Salt + Water 2HCl(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) CaCl2(aq) + 2 H2O(l) Acid + Base A Salt + Water
Bronsted-Lowry Model Ammonia (NH3) is a base. It does not contain OH- in it. So according in Arrhenius it isn’t a base. But when placed in water it produces OH, so it must be a base.
Bronsted-Lowry Model The Bronsted-Lowry model focuses on H+ ion Acid – H+ donor When placed in water Acids give H+ away HCl (g) + H2O (l) Cl- (aq) + H3O+ (aq) H3O+ (aq) is called the Hydronium ion Base – H+ acceptor NH3 (aq) + H2O (l) NH4+(aq) + OH-
Acid-Base Pairs In Bronsted-Lowry Acids and Bases you must always have a pair Every Acid must have a Conjugate Base Every Base must have an Conjugate Acid HCl (g) + H2O (l) Cl- (aq) + H3O+ (aq) Acid Base Con Base Con Acid HCl is an Acid and produces Cl- H2O must be a Base and produces H3O+
More on Pairs HI(s) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + I-(aq) Acid Base C.A. C.B. H2SO4(s) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + HSO4-(aq) Acid Base C.A. C.B.
Strong Acids Strong acid - reacts completely with water to produce ions; no molecules are left Example: HCl + H2O H3O+ + Cl- The Six Strong Acids: HCl (hydrochloric acid) HBr (hydrobromic acid) HI (hydroiodic acid) H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) HNO3 (nitric acid) HClO4 (perchloric acid)
Strong acids: HCl + H2O H3O+ + Cl- Remember, strong acids ionize completely in water. The reaction goes all the way to the right. A single arrow is used. There are virtually no HCl molecules left intact.
Strong acids: HCl + H2O H3O+ + Cl- Looking at the equation above, with the single arrow, is Cl- a strong base or a weak base?
Weak Acids weak acid – reacts only slightly with water to produce ions; mostly molecules left HF + H2O H3O++ F- H2CO3 + H2O H3O++ HCO3- Notice: Only one H comes off at a time
Strong Bases Strong Base - reacts completely with water to produce ions; no molecules are left Strong Bases: Group 1 metals and Sr, Ba, and Ra with OH present Examples NaOH, KOH, CsOH, Ba(OH)2
Weak Bases weak Bases – reacts only slightly with water to produce ions; mostly molecules left Examples: NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH- Fe(OH)3 + H2O Fe 3+ + 3 OH-
General rule: The conjugate base of a strong acid is a weak base.Similarly, the conjugate acid of a strong base is a weak acid.
One more reminder:“Weak” does not mean the same thing as “diluted.”HCl, for example is always a strong acid. If you add 1000 liters of water to it, it will be diluted, but still strong because what little there is will be completely dissociated.
Concentrated Vs Dilute Concentrated means that there is a lot of Acid/Base molecules for the amount of water or that the Molarity is High Concentrated HCl is 16 M Dilute means that there are not many Acid/Base molecules or that the Molarity is Low Diluted HCl would be 0.1 M
Naming Acids Look at the names of these acids – can you come up with the rule? H2SO4: sulfuric acid HNO3: nitric acid H3PO4: phosphoric acid
Naming acids Rule #1: If the acid comes from a polyatomic ion that ends in “ate,” the acid is named ____-ic. H2SO4: sulfuric acid (from sulfate) HNO3: nitric acid (from nitrate) H3PO4: phosphoric acid (from phosphate)
Naming Acids Rule #2: If the acid does not have oxygen in it, then name it… hydro + second element + ic Example: HCl is hydrochloric acid. What would HBr be? H2S?
Water as an Acid and a Base amphoteric – describes substance that can act as an acid or as a base Example: H2O (see previous Bronsted Lowry examples) Arrhenius: H2O H+ + OH- Bronsted Lowry: H2O + H2O H3O+ + OH-
Strength of Acids/Bases pH Scale relates strengths of acids and bases pH 0 to 7 – Acid pH = 7 – Neutral pH 7 to 14 – Base pH can only be from 0 to 14 pH= -log[H+]
[H+] 100 10-1 10-3 10-5 10-7 10-9 10-11 10-13 10-14 pH 0 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 14 14 13 11 9 7 5 3 1 0 pOH 10-14 10-13 10-11 10-9 Basic 10-7 10-5 10-3 10-1 100 [OH-] Acidic Neutral Basic
pH pH= -log[H+] Used because [H+] is usually very small As pH decreases, [H+] increases exponentially Sig figs only the digits after the decimal place of a pH are significant [H+] = 1.0 x 10-8 pH= 8.00 3 sig figs
How to find pH Punch in calculator: [H+] or number, log, +/– Example: Find pH if [H+] = 1.0 x 10-5 M pH = - log(1.0 x 10-5) = 5.00 Punch in + / –, log, 1.0 EXP - 5, Enter
[H+] Concentration If you know the pH, you can determine the Molarity of H+ Ions in the solution. Since pH= -log [H+] Then [H+] = 10-pH What is the Hydrogen Ion concentration of a solution that has a pH of 7.00? [H+] = 10-7.00 = 1.0 x 10-7 M
How to find [H+] Given pH, find [H]; Punch in pH or number, +/– , 10x or 2nd log Example: If pH is 9.0, find [H+] pH = -log [H+] Punch in 10x or 2nd log, +/– , 9.0 [H] = 1.0 x 10-9 M
What if it has OH- but not H+? 14 = pH + pOH 1.0 x 10-14 = [H+] x [OH-] What is the pH of a solution that has a pOH of 5.00? 14 = pH + 5.00 or 14 – 5.00 = 9.00 What would the [H+] be? [H+] = 10-9.00 = 1.0 x 10-9 M
pOH Not all substances make [H+], some make OH- pOH= -log[OH-] 14 = pH + pOH Sig figs only the digits after the decimal place of a pH are significant [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-8 pOH= 8.00 3 sig figs pH = 14 – 8.00 = 6.00
Finding OH- if you have H+ 1.0 x 10-14 = [H+][OH-] If you hydrogen ion concentration is 2.50 x 10-5, what is the Hydroxide ion concentration? 1.0 x 10-14 = [2.50 x 10-5][OH-] 1.0 x 10-14 = [OH-] 2.50 x 10-5 = 4.0 x 10-10
