Q

why is [H+] larger at higher temps (for water)

A

because temp increase favours endothermic reaction, shifting equilibrium to right ∴ KW increases ∴ [H+] increases

Q

assumptions made about weak acids (2)

A

1) [HA] at equ. ≈ [HA] initial

2) [A-] ≈ [H+] because [H+] from water is negligable

Q

effect of temperature on pH of water

A

temp increase = equilibrium shift to the right
[H+] and [OH-] INCREASE
Kw increase, pH decrease

Q

acid + metal =

22
Q

acid + carbonate =

A

salt + water + CO2

23
Q

acid + base =

A

salt + water

24
Q

conjugate acid-base pair

A

2 species which can be converted Ito each other by the transfer of a proton

25
Q

2 ways of making an acidic buffer

A

1) weak acid and one of its salts

2) mix of excess weak acid and strong base

26
Q

2 ways of making an basic buffer

A

1) weak base and one of its salts

2) mixture of an excess of weak base and strong

27
Q

pH blood plasma has to be

A

7.35-7.45

28
Q

buffer system in the body

A

carbonic acid-hydrogen carbonate

29
Q

equilibrium for body buffer system

A

H2CO3 ⇌ H+ + HCO3

30
Q

what happens to body equilibrium when H+ added

A

[H+] increases
[H+] reacts with conjugate base HCO3-
eq. moves left, making more H2CO3, removing H+

31
Q

what happens to body equilibrium when OH- added

A

[OH-] increases
small conc go H+ react w OH-
H2CO3 dissociates to restore H+ ions
eq. shifts right, making more HCO3- and H+

32
Q

how does body prevent build up of H2CO3

A

converts it to CO2 which is exhaled by lungs

33
Q

weak acid

A

do not fully dissociate

34
Q

derivatives of carboxylic acid (4)

A
  • ester
  • acyl chloride
  • acid anhydride
  • amide

36
Q

phenolphalien can always be used with…

A

strong base

37
Q

pH weak acid

A

[H+] = √ KA x [HA]

38
Q

d. indicator

A

weak acids which have a different colour to their conjugate base

39
Q

relationship between PKa and Ka

A

PKa = -log(Ka)

40
Q

equation for: pH of mixture when H+ is in excess

weak acid

A

= H+ = Ka x [HA]/[A-]

41
Q

equation for: pH of mixture when OH- is in excess

A

H+ = KW/[OH-]

42

what is pKa used for?

A

comparing

50
