Chapter 3- Acids And Bases Flashcards
Base
Substance reduces H ion concentration sometimes by accepting or indirectly by dissolving to form OH-
What is pH 14?
H+
What is pH 7?
OH and H are the same
What is pH 0?
H>OH
Acid
Buffers
Substance that minimizes change in concentration of H and OH by accepting/ donation H
Acidification
A threat to water quality
What’s an example of acidification?
Burning fossil fuels
What is ocean acidification?
Carbonic acid which lowers ocean pH
What is the element cycle?
Recycling elements, atmosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere
True or False. Cell must be 7 of shape of the molecule changes which changes the function.
True
Acids
Substances increases hydrogen ion concentration of solution, when dissolves donates H+, and removes HO-
Carbonic acids
H2CO3 are important buffer systems and moderates pH changes in blood and plasma
