Unit 8 - Acids & Bases Flashcards
Bases
Electron donator.
Yeilds OH- in solution.
H+ Ion acceptor.
Products of an acid/base reaction
Salt + Water
Hydronium Ion
[H+]
Hydroxide Ion
[OH-]
Concentrated
relatively large concentration of solute
Concentration
amount of solute per solvent
(Molarity & molality)
Properties of Acids
Sour
Properties of Bases
Bitter and slippery
Acids
Electron acceptors.
Yeild H+ Ions in solution.
H+ donor.
NEUTRALIZATION REACTION
When an acid and base react in solution to form salt and water.
Amphoteric
Acid or Base
pH Scale
pH = (-) log [H+]
pOH = - log [OH-]
pH + pOH = 14
[H+] [OH-] = 1E-14
Determine the conjugate acid/base pairs.
NH3 + H2O —> NH4+ + OH-
Dilute
relatively small concentration of solute
