Lecture 20 Flashcards
Strong or weak acid HCl
strong
Ionization of acids
when dissolve in water, acids and bases dissociate into two ions.
Oxy acids have acid hydrogens attached to an oxygen atom
h2SO4, HNO3 example
Carboxylic acids have COOH
HC2H3O2 (only one H in the formula is acidic
Bases structure
OH ions (NaOH, Ca(OH))2. Mostly amine groups (derivitaves of ammonia)-Molecular bases contain structures that react with H+
Acid base reactions (neutralization reactions)
Acid and Base neutralize each others properties. Acid + Base –> Salt + water (salt must be aq)
acids with metal oxides
Acids react with metal oxides to produce water and a dissolved salt. ex: HCl reacts with potassium oxide to form water and potassium chloride (2HCl (aq)+ K2O (s)—> H2O(l) + 2KCl (aq)
Metals go into the solution and usually produce Hydrogen gas. Salt contains the metal ion usually.
bronsted-Lowry acids and bases
Acid is a proton donor
Base is a proton acceptor
Acids and bases and conjugates
Acid - Conjugate base Base- Conjugate acid
Titration
Titrant (known solution) added from a buret.
Indicators
Chemicals are added to help determine the endpoint
Endpoint- definiton
of the titration occurs when the reaction is complete
Base solution -
Titrant in the buret
Endpoint (color)
At the titrants endpoint, just enough base has been added to neutralize all the acid, at this point the indicator changes color.
Ion product of water
Kw (h30+] x [OH-] = 1x 10^-14=kw
If h30 increases then OH must decrease (inversely proportional)
