Q

pH definition and mathematical expression

Q

For a strong monobasic acid , what is the ratio of moles of the acid to the hydrogen ions and what does this suggest

A

1:1
It suggests that the concentration of the acid and hydrogen ions are the same

16
Q

The further right the position of equilibrium of in weak acid

A

The stronger the weak acid

17
Q

Formulae of pKa

A

pKa= -logKa

18
Q

Formulae for Ka using pKa

A

Ka = 10^-pKa

19
Q

Are acids with a Ka value or pKa value weak or strong

A

They are weak

20
Q

What are the two approximations for weak acids

A

The concentration of hydrogen ions is the same as the concentration of the conjugate base
[H+]= [A-]

The concentration of the acid at equilibrium is equal to the concentration of the acid at the start

21
Q

What does Kw stand for

A

The ionic product of water

22
Q

Formulae for Kw

A

Kw = [H+][OH-]

23
Q

Is Kw temperature dependent?
What is Kw at 298K or 25degrees

A

Yes

1*10^-14mol^2dm^-6

24
Q

Water is neutral , what does this imply during dissociation of water

A

It implies that
[H+]= [OH-]

25
Q

What happens to the ph value of the neutral point when temperature changes and why

A

It changes as well
Because Kw is temperature dependent

26
Q

Approximation for strong monobasic acids

A

[HA]= [H+]

27
Q

Formular to find new concentrations of acid

A

Original concentration * (volume of reagent/total volume)

28
Q

The larger the Ka value, the ……. The weak acid

A

Stronger

29
Q

The smaller the pKa value, the…. The weak acid

A

Stronger

30
Q

Pure water is neutral at any temperature , true or false

A

True

31
Q

Two requirements to calculate the ph of a strong base

A

The concentration of the base
The ionic product of water
