Chapter 20 Flashcards
What is a bronsted Lowry acid
Bronsted Lowry acid is a proton donor
What is a bronsted Lowry base
Bronsted Lowry base is a proton acceptor
What is a monobasic dibasic and tribasic acid
A monobasic acid can only released one proton a dibasic could release two and a tribasic can release 3
What are conjugate acid base pairs
Conjugate pairs and linked by the transfer of a proton the species that has lost a proton is a conjugate base and a species that is gaining a proton is a conjugate acid
Why is water a special case for conjugate acid base pairs
With acids water forms a conjugate acid where is with bases it forms a conjugate base
Describe the development of the acid-base theory
In 1754 Guillame said a base react with an acid to give a solid form
In 1884 Arhenius says acid forms h+ ions and bases form oh- ions
In 1923 bronsted Lowry says an acid donates a proton and a base accepts it
Acid + metal=
Acid + metal= salt + hydrogen
Acid + carbonate
Acid + carbonate= salt + water + carbon dioxide
Acid + base
Acid + base= salt + water
Acid + alkali
Acid + alkali=salt + water
What does pH measure
pH measures the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution
pH=
pH= -log|H+|
|H+|=
|H+|= 10^-pH
What assumption is made for strong acids
Concentration of acid is equal to concentration of h+ ions
What is the acid dissociation constant Ka
KA is the equilibrium constant that shows the extent of dissociation of a weak acid
