Question 1: Name two properties of an acid- Question 2:Name two properties of a base? Academic Chemistry March 20,2012 sour, corrosive, reacts with metals to produce hydrogen gas, turns blue litmus paper red. Bitter, slippery, turns red litmus paper blue

Section 20.2 Self-ionization of water: Reaction in which 2 water molecules produce ions H 2 O + H 2 O → OH - + H 3 O + Also written as: H 2 O ↔ H + + OH - The H 3 O + and H + represent hydrogen ions in solution.
3
Neutral Solutions In pure water, the concentration of hydrogen ions is equal to the concentration of hydroxide ions 1 x 10 -7 M Remember M represents Molarity [H + ] = [OH - ] (brackets represent concentration) The represents a neutral solution.
4
NUMBER LINE Remember the number line Which is greater? 0 or 3 33 Which is greater? -7 or -4 -4 Which is less? -2 or -4 -4 34 5678 2 10-2-3-4-5-6-7 Increasing
5
Solutions In a solution, if the [H + ] increases, the [OH - ] decreases and vice versa. Think back to our see-saw. As one person went up the other went down. Ion-product constant of water, Kw: Kw = [H + ] x [OH - ] = 1 x 10 -14 M Acidic Solution: The [H + ] is greater then [OH - ]. Therefore, the [H + ] is greater then 1 x 10 -7 M. Think about the # line. -5 is GREATER than -7 Basic Solution: The [H + ] is less than [OH - ]. Therefore, the [H + ] is less than 1 x 10 -7 M. A.k.a. alkaline solutions
6
Problem If the [H + ] is 1 x 10 -5 M, is the solution acidic, basic, or neutral? What is the [OH - ]? Acidic [OH-] = 1x10 -14 /1x10 -5 = 1x10 -9 M
7
Problem If the [H + ] is 1 x 10 -3 M, is the solution acidic, basic, or neutral? What is the [OH - ]? Acidic [OH-] = 1x10 -14 /1x10 -3 = 1x10 -11 M
8
Problem If the [H + ] is 1 x 10 -11 M, is the solution acidic, basic, or neutral? What is the [OH - ]? Basic [OH-] = 1x10 -14 /1x10 -11 = 1x10 -3 M
9
pH Scale The pH scale ranges from 0-14. 0 = strongly acidic 7 = neutral 14 = strongly basic pH = -log [H + ] What is the pH of a neutral solution? Log is a function on the calculator
10
Sample Problems What is the pH of the following concentrations? [H + ] = 1 x 10 -2 M [H + ] = 1 x 10 -9 M [H + ] = 1 x 10 -5 M As long as you have a 1 x 10 to some power, the pH is the exponent.
11
Sample Problems If you do not have 1 to the power then you MUST use our formulas. What is the pH of the following? [H + ] = 2x10 -2 pH = -log(2x10 -2 ) = 1.7 [H + ] = 6x10 -9 pH = -log(6x10 -9 ) = 8.2 [H + ] = 3x10 -5 pH = -log(3x10 -5 ) = 4.5
12
Other Formulas and Problems pOH = -log [OH - ] [OH - ] = 10 -pOH pH + pOH = 14 Kw = [OH - ] x [H + ] = 1x10 -14
13
Other Formulas and Problems What is the pH of a solution with a [OH - ] of 4.0 x 10 -11 M? Two ways to solve: 1. find pOH then subtract from 14 pOH = -log[OH-] = 10.4 14-10.4 = 3.6
14
Other Formulas and Problems What is the pH of a solution with a [OH - ] of 4.0 x 10 -11 M? Two ways to solve: 2. Use Kw to find [H + ] then find pH using –log function. Kw = [OH - ] x [H + ] = 1x10 -14 [H+] = 1x10 -14 /4x10 -11 = 2.5x10 -4 -log(2.5x10 -4 ) = 3.6
15
Flow Chart of pH and pOH Use the map to help you get from any point A to any point B…
16
More Samples What is the [H + ] of a solution with a pH of 3.7? [H+] = 10 -3.7 = 2.0x10 -4 What is the pOH? 14-3.7 = 10.3 What is the [OH-] [OH-] = 10 -10.3 = 5.0x10 -11
17
More Samples If the [H + ] is 3.1 x 10 -5 M, what is the pH? pH = -log(3.1x10 -5 ) = 4.5 What is the pOH? 10-4.5 = 9.5 What is the [OH - ]? [OH - ] = 10 -9.5 = 3.16x10 -10
