Acids and Bases Flashcards
1M of HCl dissociates. What is the molar concentration of H+ and Cl- that have dissociated?
1M H+
1M Cl-
The effect of concentrated solution on dissociation of acids and bases
% dissociation of acid or base decreases with increase in concentration of the solution
As the acidity of the solution increases, % dissociation of acid decreases
relationship between acid strength and acid concentration
acid strength increases with acid concentration
What does a greater acid strength mean?
it means it have a greater concentration of H+ ions, more H+ ions that have dissociated regardless of percentage of dissociation
what is the trend of acidity of binary hydrides across the periodic table?
the acidity of hydrides tend to increase right and down, toward the HI
the basicity increases the other way to the left and up
How can the dissociation constant be altered?
change in temperature
water dissociation constant
Kw = 10^-14
pH + pOH equations
pH + pOH = 14
pH + pOH = pKw
pKa + pKb equations
pKa + pKb = pKw
pKa + pKb = 14
How to find the pH of a weak acid
Use the Ka constant
