Q

Strong Vs. Weak Acid

What does strong acid dissociate into?

Example?

A

Strong acid FULLY dissociates into water and H+ (hydrogen) ions, all hydrogen ions are donated and separate from the anions.

HCl (aq) -> H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)

Q

What does weak acid dissociate into?

Example?

What does ⇌ mean?

A

Weak acid: partially dissociates in water into H+ (hydrogen) ions, some H+ (hydrogen ions) are donated and the system forms equilibrium

CH3COOH (aq) ⇌ H+ (aq) + CH3COO- (aq)

⇌ = reversible, “can go back and forth”; a reversible reaction in which both the reactants and products are forming at the same time.

Q

What does amphiprotic mean?

Examples?

A

Donate AND accept hydrogen ions (H+)

H2O + H+ –> H3O+ [hydronium ion; accepting a hydrogen ion, showing water reacting like a base]

Cl- + H2O –> OH- + HCl [donates H+ to the Cl and makes HCl; acting as an acid]
