What is a standard solution
A solution of a known concentration
What do you need to make a standard solution
A known mass of substance dissolved in a known volume
What technique do you use to get the known mass
Weighing by difference
Take weight of scoop after transfer away from weight of substance and scoop
How do you get a known volume
Use a volumetric flask
Definition of an acid
Compound that dissolves in water to form a solution that contains hydrogen ions and has a ph less than 7
Definition of an alkali
A compound that dissolved in water to form a solution that contains hydroxide ions amd has a ph more than 7
What is a concentrated or dilute acid
The measure of moles in the given volume
What is a strong or weak acid
The measure of degree of dissociation
Strong acid definition
Fully dissociates into ions in water
Weak acids definition
Only partially dissociates into ions in water
Examples of strong acids
Hydrochloric acid
Sulfiric acid
Nitric acid
Example of weak acids
Carbonic acid ( H2CO3)
Methanoic acid ( HCOOH)
Ethanoic acid ( CH3COOH)
If a strong and weak acid has the same concentration what would be the differences
The strong acid would have a lower ph and a faster rate of reaction
Define base
Any metal oxide or metal hydroxide
OR
A substance that accepts protons
Most bases are insoluble those that are soluble are alkalis
Define salt
Compound formed when hydrogen ions in an acid are replaced by metal ions or ammonium ions
Acid + metal
Salt + hydrogen
Acid + metal oxide
Salt+ water
Acid + metal hydroxide
Salt + water
Acid + metal carbonate
Salt + carbon dioxide + water
Acid + metal hydrogencarbonate
Salt+ co2 + water
Acid + ammonia
Ammonium salt
