Unit 7 Flashcards
What are binary acids? How are they named?
Contain hydrogen and one of the more electronegative elements
Hydro-element-ic acid
Ex: Hydrofluoric acid HF
What are oxyacids? How are they named?
Contain hydrogen, oxygen, and a third element (usually a nonmetal)
Based off polyatomic ions
Polyatomic ion-ic acid
For the oxyacids, which prefixes and suffixes mean what?
Hypo____ous means 2 less oxygen
______ous means 1 less oxygen
______ic means most common form or first discovered
Per______ic means one more oxygen
How does polyatomic ion ending relate to the acid naming?
Poly Acid
Ate ic
Ite ous
According to Arrhenius, what do a base and an acid increase?
A base increases the [OH-]
An acid increases the [H+]
What is a strong acid/base and a weak acid/base
Strong acids and bases ionize/dissociate completely and are strong electrolytes
Weak acids and bases only ionize/dissociate partially and are weak electrolytes
What is the difference between an acid and a base?
Acids dissociate into hydronium (H3O+) and an element
Bases dissociate into hydroxide (OH-) and an element
What are the strong acids?
HCl HBr HI HClO4 HClO3 H2SO4 HNO3
What are the strong bases?
LiOH NaOH KOH RbOH CsOH Ca(OH)2 Sr(OH)2 Ba(OH)2
Does the solubility of a compound affect the strength of acids and particular bases?
Yes, if metal hydroxide is insoluble they won’t produce OH-
What are neutral compounds?
Compounds that do not produce H+ or OH-
What is a Brønsted-Lowry acid?
A molecule or ion that is a proton donor (H+ is a proton)
Base is a proton acceptor
In the compound
HCl+NH3 –> NH4 + Cl
Which is the proton donor?
Which is the proton acceptor?
Proton donor- HCl
Proton acceptor- NH3
What is a monoprotic, diprotic, and tripotic acid?
Monoprotic- can donate 1 proton/molecule- HCl
Diprotic- can donate 2- H2SO4
Triprotic- can donate 3- H3PO4
How do monoprotic, diprotic, and triprotic acids affect concentration and how weak the acid is?
Monoprotic= lowest conc. and weakest acid Diprotic= higher conc. and middle weak acid Triprotic= greatest conc. and least weak acid
According to Gilbert Lewis, what is a Lewis acid?
An atom, molecule, or ion that accepts an electron pair to form a covalent bond
There is an electron pair acceptor (acid) and an electron pair donor (base)
What is a conjugate base and a conjugate acid?
Name the base, acid, conjugate base, and conjugate acid for this reaction
NH3 + H2O -> NH4 + OH
When an acids donates a proton(H+), it creates a conjugate base, this is what's left over after losing a proton NH3- base H2O- acid NH4- conjugate acid OH- conjugate base
The stronger the acid or base, the _________ the conjugate acid or base will be
Weaker
