Q

Why are group 1 hydroxides strong ionic bases

A

One: dissociation: oxygen is the proton exceptor
To: Ionisation:Oxide ions undergo hydrolysis and 0H ions are produced from water

This forms a strong base in a xOH

32
Q

33
Q

Strong base versus concentrated bass

A

The strength of the base is determined by the identity of the base, and to what extent it dissociates in solution

Or HCO3- + H2O🔁H2CO3 + OH-

37
Q

Auto ionisation of water

A

Because water is M3 project, and acid-base reaction can occur between two water molecules. This auto ionisation reaction occurs to a small extent

H2O + H2O🔄OH-+H3O+
The concentration of 0H equals the concentration of H30

38
Q

A

KW equals [H30 ] [OH]
The value of the equilibrium constant does not change equals 10^-14 & 25°C

57
Q

Why do we do titrations

A

Titrations are performed to accurately determine the concentration of a particular acid or base solution

58
Q

What is a titration

A

A titration is an experimental process used to accurately determine the concentration of an acid or base solution

59
Q

Neutralisation/equivalence point

A

The point where an acid and base have reacted so neither is an access

Add the equivalence point no reactants are left, only salt and water are present

60
Q

Standard solution

A

A solution of known concentration

61
Q

Describe quantitatively and qualitatively how to make up a standard solution

A

Qualitatively:
One: mass the required quantity of the salt using an accurate mass balance
To: dissolve the salt in a little water and place the solution in the volumetric flask
Three: fill the volumetric flask to the mark carefully with water

Since you know the mass accurately can determine the number of moles accurately
Hence determine volume then concentration (present formulas)


62
Q

Explain titration method

A

1: a burette is filled with a standard solution of known concentration

2: a burette is filled with the solution of unknown concentration.

3: a fixed volume of the solution of Unknown concentration is emptied into a clean conical flask.

4: a few drops of a suitable indicator or added to the solution in the conical flask

5: the conical flask is placed on a white tile To easily see the colour change

6: run a small quantity of the solution out of the be ready and record various readings

7: record the final be ready reading. Determine the volume of the solution added by subtracting the initial be reading from the final be a reading as the first reading is a rough measurement.

8: repeat three times to find average volume of standard solution that is needed to achieve colour change.

9: use the balanced equation for the reaction, The measured volumes as well as the known concentration to calculate the unknown concentration

63
Q

Describe and explain the physical process of performing a titration to ensure appropriate precision

A

Make sure to wash the conical flask with water
Wash the pipets with solution
Select the correct indicator
Prepare a standard solution

64
Q

A

Indicators are weak acidsIn equilibrium with their can’t you get bases. The acid and conjugate base are different colours in solution

65
Q

Selecting the correct indicator

A

Weak acid versus strong base equivalence point is the pH is greater than seven

Strong acid versus weak base the equivalence point pH is lower than seven
