Acids and Bases
2
Properties of Acids (in aq solution)
Sour taste Low pH Turn litmus paper red Conduct electrical current
3
Properties of Bases (in aq solution)
Bitter taste Slippery High pH Turn litmus paper blue Conduct electrical current
4
Acid = substance that releases H+ ions in aq solution HCl H+ + Cl-
Arrhenius Definition Acid = substance that releases H+ ions in aq solution HCl H+ + Cl- Base = substance that releases OH- ions in aq solution NaOH Na+ + OH-
5
Acid-Base Reactions Known as a neutralization reaction. Acids and bases will react with each other to form salt and water. HCl + NaOH NaCl + H2O
6
Bronsted-Lowry Definition
As more and more substances were determined to have acidic or basic properties, even some without obvious H+ or OH-, a new definition was needed. Acid = proton donor Base = proton acceptor
7
Bronsted-Lowry Definition
Acid = proton donor H2O + HCl H3O+ + Cl-
8
Bronsted-Lowry Definition
Base = proton acceptor NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH–
9
Lewis Acid – something that accepts an electron pair to form a covalent bond
Lewis Base – something that donates an electron pair to form a covalent bond A + :B → A—B
10
Acids & Bases Review Acid Base
substance that releases H+ ions in aq solution Proton donor Electron pair acceptor Base substance that releases OH- ions in aq solution Proton acceptor Electron pair donator
11
Conjugate Acid-Base Pairs
In an acid-base reaction, and acid plus a base reacts to form a conjugate base plus a conjugate acid Acid + Base Conjugate Base + Conjugate Acid The conjugate acid of a base is formed when the base gains a proton. A conjugate base is formed when an acid loses a proton.
12
NH3 + H20 NH4+ + OH- Additional Proton means it is now a Proton Donor = Conjugate Acid Loss of proton means it is now a Proton Acceptor = Conjugate Base Proton Acceptor = Base Proton Donor = Acid Note: The conjugate name only refers to acids and bases in the PRODUCTS Conjugate pairs differ only by a proton NH3 and NH4+ are a conjugate acid-base pair H20 and OH- are a conjugate acid-base pair A strong acid becomes a weak conj. base (and vice versa)
13
Acid & Base Naming Bases are named exactly the same
Ex. Ca(OH)2 is Calcium hydroxide
14
Acid Naming Overview Binary Start with hydro- Element
End with –ic acid Tertiary (Oxyacids) “I ate something, and now I am sick” If anion ends in –ate then the acid ends in –ic If the anion ends in –ite then the acid ends in -ous
15
Naming WS
16
Acid Strength A stronger acid will transfer MORE protons (H+) than a weak acid. It will create more hydronium ions (H3O+) in water. Hydrochloric acid HCl + H2O H3O+ + Cl- Acetic Acid CH3COOH + H2O H3O+ + CH3COO- More dissociation! Less dissociation!
17
How do we compare the strength of an acid or a base?
We measure the amount of hydronium ions they create (acids) or the amount of hydroxide ions they create (bases)….using concentration.
18
When water gains a proton it is called HYDRONIUM!!
H3O+
19
When water loses a proton it is called HYDROXIDE!!
OH-
20
What is concentration? Using molarity, it is a measure of moles of solute in liters of solution. Concentration is measured in WATER!
21
H2O is both an acid and a base
Water is simultaneously donating and accepting protons!
22
What are the ion concentrations in water?
The concentrations of H3O+ and OH- in pure water are each 1.0×10-7 mol/L at 25ºC. Putting a symbol in brackets is used to signify the concentration. [H30+] = 1.0×10-7 M [OH-] = 1.0×10-7 M
23
Ionization Constant of water, KW
KW = [H30+] [OH-] KW = (1.0×10-7)(1.0×10-7) = 1.0×10-14
24
Bases increase the [OH-]
Acids increase the [H30+] Whenever [H30+] is greater than [OH-], the solution is acidic. Bases increase the [OH-] Whenever [OH-] is greater than [H30+], the solution is basic. With an increase in [H30+], some of the H30+ ions will react with the OH- ions, reducing [OH-] . [H30+][OH-] will still = 1.0x10-14
25
Concentration values tend to be small…so we use a more convenient scale. pH!
27
pH + pOH = 14 pH – A measure of the acidity of a solution. It is the negative logarithm of the hydronium ion [H30+] concentration. pH = -log [H30+]
28
pH + pOH = 14 pOH – A measure of how basic a solution is. It is the negative logarithm of the hydroxide [OH-] concentration. pOH = -log [OH-]
29
The logarithm scale is created to make numbers over a large range more manageable.
30
The logarithm base 10 of a number x is the power to which 10 must be raised in order to equal x.
Log 10 x = ? Log 100 = ? 10? = x 10 ? = 100
31
Remember, our concentrations are SMALL
Remember, our concentrations are SMALL. So we are going to be dealing with decimals… Log 10 x = ? Log .001 = ? 10? = x 10 ? = .001
32
[H+] = 1×10-3 = 0.001 pH = -log [H+] pH = -log (1×10-3) pH = 3 To determine pH from a concentration where 1 is the only digit, write the concentration in scientific notation. The absolute power of the exponent will be the pH.
33
For a base, you do the same thing except remember that you are solving for pOH first…
34
Ionization Constant of water, KW
KW = [H30+] [OH-] KW = (1.0×10-7)(1.0×10-7) = 1.0×10-14
