Chapter 19: Acids Flashcards
Arrhenius: An acid is a substance that produces only:
Hydrogen [H+] ions in solution.
Arrhenius: and a base is a substance that produces:
Only [OH-] ions in the solution.
Bronsted: an acid is a substance that:
Hydrogen ion donor.
Bronsted: and a base is a substance that:
Hydrogen ion acceptor.
What are some examples of Arrhenius acids?:
HCL, CH3COOH, H2SO4, HC2H3O2
What are some examples of Arrhenius base?:
KOH, Ca(OH)2, NH3
Why are acids and bases good electrolytes?
They produce ions that move freely.
Properties of Acids:
Taste sour, produce [H+] ions, aqueous solution produces electrolytes.
Properties of bases:
Taste bitter, Slippery, produces [OH-], aqueous solution produces electrodes.
Bronsted:
defines an acid as a hydrogen ion donor and base as a hydrogen ion acceptor.
Organic acids:
contain carboxyl group
COOH:
Organic acids.
Acid:
PH lower than 7
Base:
PH higher than 7
AS PH in decreases by 1 point the solution has:
becomes more acidic, has 10 times more H30 ions
