Equation to calculate ph
Equation to calculate pOH
pH = -log[H+]
pOH = -log[OH]
Equation to calculate hydrogen ion concentration
[H+] = 10^-pH
Reaction for weak base and water
B + H2O = BH+ + OH-
What does low pka and pkb mean?
Higher Ka and higher Kb respectively indicating a stronger base and acid
What do concentration of weak acid and base at equilibrium equal?
The concentration of acid and base initially
Conjugate base of HClO
ClO-
How to determine pka from ka?
pKa = -logKa
Find pH when given concentration and pka
- Find Ka using Ka = 10^-pka
- Ice table
- Sub in values in Ka equation to find [H+]
- Find pH using pH = -log[H]+
Acid deposition equation for nitrogen to nitrogen oxide
R means radical
1. N2 + O2 = 2NOR
2. 2NOR + O2 = 2NO2R
3. 2NO2R + H2O = HNO3 + HNO2
Acid deposition equation for sulphur to sulphur dioxide
- S + O2 = SO2
- 2SO2 + O2 = 2SO3
- SO2 + H20 = H2SO3
What is acid deposition? How can a calcium compound reduce a problem caused bya cid deposition?
Acid deposition is acidic precipitation
Calcium carbonate or calcium hydroxide can be added to water
What do the concentration of strong acid and base equal?
The hydroxide or hydronium concentrations
