Equilibria Flashcards
define conjugate acid and base
doubt
expression of Kw
[H+][OH-] / [H+]^2
value of Kw
1x10^-14
expression of Ka
[H+]^2/[HA]
formula of pH
-log[H+] / pKa + log [salt/acid]
formula of H+
10^ -pH / Ka x [acid/salt]
how to make pKa from Ka
-log(Ka)
how to make Ka from pKa
10^ -pKa
2 ways of solving Ksp
x2 and 4x3
partition coefficient formula
organic/aqueous unless mentioned compound is soluble in H2O; in the case formula is aqueous/organic
disproportionation reaction 70 C
X^2 + NaOH = NaXO3 + NaX + H2O
disproportionation reaction at 15 C
X^2 + NaOH = NaXO + NaX + H2O
define buffer
- resists change to pH
2. if small amount of acid or alkali is added
equations for blood buffer
H+ + HCO3- = H2CO3
OH- + HCO3 = CO3 2- + H2O
