9.1Introduction to Acids and Bases 2 The earliest definition was given by Arrhenius: An acid contains a hydrogen atom and dissolves in water to form a hydrogen ion, H +. A base contains hydroxide and dissolves in water to form OH −. HCl(g) acid H + (aq) + Cl − (aq) NaOH(s) base Na + (aq) + OH − (aq)

9.1Introduction to Acids and Bases 3 The Arrhenius definition correctly predicts the behavior of many acids and bases. However, this definition is limited and sometimes inaccurate. For example, H + does not exist in water. Instead, it reacts with water to form the hydronium ion, H 3 O +. H 3 O + (aq)H + (aq) + H 2 O(l) hydrogen ion: does not really exist in solution hydronium ion: actually present in aqueous solution

9.1Introduction to Acids and Bases 4 The Brønsted–Lowry definition: A Brønsted–Lowry acid is a proton (H + ) donor. A Brønsted–Lowry base is a proton (H + ) acceptor. H 3 O + (aq) + Cl − (aq)HCl(g) + H 2 O(l) This proton is donated. HCl is a Brønsted–Lowry acid because it donates a proton to the solvent water. H 2 O is a Brønsted–Lowry base because it accepts a proton from HCl.

9.1Introduction to Acids and Bases A. Brønsted–Lowry Acids 5 A Brønsted–Lowry acid must contain a hydrogen atom. Common Brønsted–Lowry acids (HA): HCl hydrochloric acid HBr hydrobromic acid C H H H C O O H acidic H atom acetic acid H 2 SO 4 sulfuric acid HNO 3 nitric acid

9.1Introduction to Acids and Bases A. Brønsted–Lowry Acids 6 A monoprotic acid contains one acidic proton. HCl A diprotic acid contains two acidic protons. H 2 SO 4 A triprotic acid contains three acidic protons. H 3 PO 4 A Brønsted–Lowry acid may be neutral or it may carry a net positive or negative charge. HCl, H 3 O +, HSO 4 −

9.1Introduction to Acids and Bases B. Brønsted–Lowry Bases 7 A Brønsted–Lowry base is a proton acceptor, so it must be able to form a bond to a proton. A base must contain a lone pair of electrons that can be used to form a new bond to the proton. N H H H + H 2 O(l) N H H H H + + OH − (aq) Brønsted–Lowry base This e − pair forms a new bond to a H from H 2 O.

9.1Introduction to Acids and Bases B. Brønsted–Lowry Bases 8 Common Brønsted–Lowry Bases (B ): NaOH sodium hydroxide KOH potassium hydroxide Mg(OH) 2 magnesium hydroxide Ca(OH) 2 calcium hydroxide H 2 O water NH 3 ammonia Lone pairs make these neutral compounds bases. The OH − is the base in each metal salt.

9.2The Reaction of a Brønsted – Lowry Acid with a Brønsted – Lowry Base 9 HA+ B A − HB+B+ + gain of H + acidbase loss of H + This e − pair stays on A. This e − pair forms a new bond to H +.

9.2The Reaction of a Brønsted – Lowry Acid with a Brønsted – Lowry Base 10 The product formed by loss of a proton from an acid is called its conjugate base. HA+ B A − HB+B+ + gain of H + acidbaseconjugate base conjugate acid loss of H + The product formed by gain of a proton by a base is called its conjugate acid.

9.2The Reaction of a Brønsted – Lowry Acid with a Brønsted – Lowry Base 11 HBr+ + gain of H + acidbaseconjugate base conjugate acid loss of H + H2OH2O Br − H3O+H3O+ HBr and Br − are a conjugate acid–base pair. H 2 O and H 3 O + are a conjugate acid–base pair. The net charge must be the same on both sides of the equation.

9.2The Reaction of a Brønsted – Lowry Acid with a Brønsted – Lowry Base 12 When a species gains a proton (H + ), it gains a +1 charge. H 2 O base zero charge add H + H 3 O + +1 charge When a species loses a proton (H + ), it effectively gains a −1 charge. HBr acid zero charge lose H + Br − −1 charge

9.2The Reaction of a Brønsted – Lowry Acid with a Brønsted – Lowry Base 13 Amphoteric compound: A compound that contains both a hydrogen atom and a lone pair of e − ; it can be either an acid or a base. HOH H 2 O as a base add H + HOH H + conjugate acid HOH H 2 O as an acid remove H + HO − conjugate base

9.3Acid and Base Strength A. Relating Acid and Base Strength 14 When a covalent acid dissolves in water, the proton transfer that forms H 3 O + is called dissociation. When a strong acid dissolves in water, 100% of the acid dissociates into ions. Common strong acids are HI, HBr, HCl, H 2 SO 4, and HNO 3. A single reaction arrow can be used, because the product is greatly favored at equilibrium. H 3 O + (aq) + Cl − (aq)HCl(g) + H 2 O(l)

9.3Acid and Base Strength A. Relating Acid and Base Strength 15 When a weak acid dissolves in water, only a small fraction of the acid dissociates into ions. Unequal reaction arrows may be used, because the reactants are usually favored at equilibrium. H 3 O + (aq) + CH 3 COO − (aq)CH 3 COOH(l) + H 2 O(l) Common weak acids are H 3 PO 4, HF, H 2 CO 3, and HCN.

9.3Acid and Base Strength A. Relating Acid and Base Strength 16 A strong acid, HCl, is completely dissociated into H 3 O + (aq) and Cl − (aq). A weak acid, CH 3 COOH, contains mostly undissociated acid.

9.3Acid and Base Strength A. Relating Acid and Base Strength 17 When a strong base dissolves in water, 100% of the base dissociates into ions. Na + (aq) + − OH(aq)NaOH(s) + H 2 O(l) Common strong bases are NaOH and KOH. When a weak base dissolves in water, only a small fraction of the base dissociates into ions. NH 4 + (aq) + − OH(aq)NH 3 (g) + H 2 O(l)

9.3Acid and Base Strength B. Using Acid Strength to Predict the Direction of Equilibrium 21 The position of the equilibrium depends upon the strengths of the acids and bases. The stronger acid reacts with the stronger base to form the weaker acid and the weaker base. A Brønsted–Lowry acid–base reaction represents an equilibrium. HA + B A − HB+B+ + acidbaseconjugate base conjugate acid

9.3Acid and Base Strength B. Using Acid Strength to Predict the Direction of Equilibrium 22 When the stronger acid and base are the reactants on the left side, the reaction readily occurs and the reaction proceeds to the right. HA+ B A − HB+B+ + stronger acid stronger base weaker base weaker acid A larger forward arrow means that products are favored.

9.3Acid and Base Strength B. Using Acid Strength to Predict the Direction of Equilibrium 23 If an acid–base reaction would form the stronger acid and base, equilibrium favors the reactants and little product forms. HA+ B A − HB+B+ + weaker acid weaker base stronger base stronger acid A larger reverse arrow means that reactants are favored.

9.3Acid and Base Strength 24 HOW TO Predict the Direction of Equilibrium in an Acid–Base Reaction Example Are the reactants or products favored in the following acid–base reaction? Step [1] Identify the acid in the reactants and the conjugate acid in the products. acidbase conjugate base conjugate acid + + HCN(g) − OH(aq) − CN(aq) H 2 O(l) gain of H + loss of H +

9.3Acid and Base Strength 25 HOW TO Predict the Direction of Equilibrium in an Acid–Base Reaction Step [2] Determine the relative strength of the acid and the conjugate acid. From Table 9.2, HCN is a stronger acid than H 2 O. Step [3] Equilibrium favors the formation of the weaker acid. + + HCN(g) − OH(aq) − CN(aq) H 2 O(l) stronger acid weaker acid Products are favored.

9.4Equilibrium and Acid Dissociation Constants 26 For the reaction where an acid (HA) dissolves in water, H 3 O + (aq) + (aq)HA(g) + H 2 O(l)A − the following equilibrium constant can be written: K = [H 3 O + ][ ] A − [HA][H 2 O]

9.4Equilibrium and Acid Dissociation Constants 27 Multiplying both sides by [H 2 O] forms a new (more useful) constant, called the acid dissociation constant, K a. K a = K[H 2 O] = [H 3 O + ][ ] A − [HA] acid dissociation constant The stronger the acid, the larger the K a value. Equilibrium favors formation of the weaker acid, the acid with the smaller K a value.

9.9Titration 52 To determine the concentration of an acid or base in a solution, we carry out a titration. If we want to know the concentration of an acid solution, a base of known concentration is added slowly until the acid is neutralized.
