3
pH less than 7 Neutralizes bases(form salts and water) Forms H + (H 3 O + ) ions in solution Corrosive-reacts with most metals Good conductors of electricity Taste sour
4
HNO 3 + H 2 O H 3 O + + NO 3
5
Weak Acids do not ionize completely: Acetic, Boric, Nitrous, Phosphoric, Sulfurous Strong Acids ionize completely: Hydrochloric, Nitric; Sulfuric, Hydriodic
6
HCl- hydrochloric- stomach acid H 2 SO 4 - sulfuric acid - car batteries HNO 3 – nitric acid - explosives HC 2 H 3 O 2 - acetic acid - vinegar H 2 CO 3 -carbonic acid – sodas H 3 PO 4 - phosphoric acid -flavorings
7
pH greater than 7 Feels slippery, soapy Taste bitter, chalky Are electrolytes Dissolves fats and oils Usually forms OH - ions in solution Neutralizes acids
8
Weak Bases: ammonia; potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate Strong Bases: sodium hydroxide; sodium phosphate; barium hydroxide; calcium hydroxide
9
NaOH- sodium hydroxide (LYE) soaps, drain cleaner Mg (OH) 2 - magnesium hydroxide-antacids Al(OH) 3 -aluminum hydroxide-antacids, deodorants NH 4 OH-ammonium hydroxide- “ammonia”

We use this scale to measure the strength of an acid or base. pH is defined as the –log[H+] pH can use the concentration of hydronium ions or hydrogen ions.

14 Most living cells have a very narrow range of tolerance for pH, i.e. [H + ]. The [H + ] concentration will be important (either explicitly or implicitly) for many other topics in biology. [H + ] is controlled in all biological organisms, and in virtually all biochemical experiments. Each pH unit represents a factor of 10 difference in [H + ]. [H + ][OH - ] = 10 -14 The pH scale goes from 0 to 14—because [H + ][OH - ] = 10 -14 pH 10 -2 10 -3 10 -5 10 -4 10 -8 10 -7 10 -6 [H + ] M 10 -10 10 -9 10 -11 10 -12 10 -13 10 -14 10 -1 10 0 A strong acid A strong base SOURCE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:PH_scale.png#file

pH paper changes color to indicate a specific pH value.
21
A buffer is a solution that resists changes in pH when small amounts of acids and bases are added.

23
Digestion-process by which foods are broken down into simpler substances. Mechanical digestion-physical process in which food is torn apart (mouth) Chemical digestion- chemical reactions in which large molecules are broken down into smaller molecules. (stomach and small intestines)
24
Mouth-pH around 7. Saliva contains amylase, an enzyme which begins to break carbohydrates into sugars. Stomach- pH around 2. Proteins are broken down into amino acids by the enzyme pepsin. Small intestine-pH around 8. Most digestion ends. Small molecules move to bloodstream toward cells that use them
