ACID PROPERTIES:
When dissolved in water, acids
- Conduct electricity
- Change blue litmus to red
- Have a sour taste
- React with bases to neutralize their properties
- React with active metals to liberate hydrogen
BASE PROPERTIES:
When dissolved in water, bases
- Conduct electricitv
- Change red litmus to blue
- Have a slippery feeling
- React with acids to neutralize their properties
classification of substances in terms of their behavior in water.
acid-base
is a substance with H in its formula that
dissociates to yield H3O
acid
is a substance with OH in its formula that dissociates to yield OH-
base
When an acid reacts with a base, they undergo
neutralization
is a substance that dissociates in aqueous medium to form yield hydronium ions, H3O+
arrhenius acid
dissociates completely into ions in water
strong acid
A _____ solution of a strong acid contains no HA molecules
dilute
A ______ acid dissociates slightly to form ions in water
weak
In a dilute solution of a weak acid, most HA molecules are _________.
undissociated
T or F | THE EXTENT OF DISSOCIATION FOR STRONG ACIDS
• There are no HA molecules in solution
The HA will turn into hydronium ion and an anion
True
Gaseous form of HCI -> called as
hydrogen chloride gas
When hydrogen chloride is aqueous or added to water, it becomes
Hydrochloric acid
THE EXTENT OF DISSOCIATION FOR WEAK ACIDS: Most HA molecules are _________.
undissociated
Weak acid: Majority will not be converted into individual ions, rather, around __ to ___% will not be converted
98-99%
Weak acid: Small part will be converted into ________ ion and anion when weak acid dissociates in water
hydronium ion
Stronger acids have more
H3O
Liberates hydrogen from hydrochloric acid ( strong or weak acid?). There’s a violent formation of bubbles
