Basic Concepts
Acids – sour or tart taste, electrolytes, described by Arrhenius as sub that inc. the H+ conc.
Bases – bitter to the taste, slippery, electrolytes, describes by Arrhenius as sub that inc. the OH- conc.
![Page 3: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Dissociation of Water Pure water exists almost entirely of water
molecules. It is essentially a non-electrolyte.
Water ionizes to a small extent – auto-ionization
The equilibrium expression is
H20(l) <-> H+(aq) + OH-
(aq)
Kw = [H+] [OH-]
![Page 4: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Since the H+ ion does not exist alone in water Kw is often expressed
Kw = [H3O+] [OH-]
because water conc is constant it does not appear in the expression
The proton in water

Values for Kw and [H+] and [OH-]
Kw = [H3O+] [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-14
1.0 x 10-14 = [X] [X]
1.0 x 10-14 = X2
X = 1.0 X 10-7 = [H3O+] = [OH-]

The Bronsted – Lowry definition holds true for
situations not involving water
Acids donate protons Bases accept protons

H20 also a BL because donates a Proton all Arrenius acids and bases are also BL acids and
bases – however all BL acids and bases may or may not be arrenius acids or bases water is not an Arrenius base in this example

every acid has a conjugate base formed from the removal of a proton from that acid
every base has a conjugate acid formed from the addition of a proton to that base

note water is acting as an acid in this reaction and a base in the previous one that makes it a amphortic substance
![Page 11: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Strengths of Acid, Bases
The stronger the acid is the weaker its conjugate base (weaker acid stronger conj base)
The stronger the base the weaker its conjugate acid (weaker base stronger conj acid)
Stronger acids and bases ionize to a greater extent than do weak acids and bases.
![Page 12: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Strong Acids – dissociate completely into ions HNO3(aq) H+(aq) + NO3
-(aq) the production of H+ ions from the acid
dominates – ignore the H+ donated from the water it is insignificant
The equilibrium lies so far to the right because HNO3 doesn’t reform
The neg log of the H+ from the acid determines pH.
Strong bases also dissociate completely and the conc of OH- from the base is the only factor considered when calculating pH.

![Page 14: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The pH scale
pH – is defined as the neg log (base-10) of the H+ ion concentration
pH = -log [H+] What is the pH of a neutral solution [H+] = 1.0 x 10^-7pH = -log [1.0 x 10^-7pH = 7
![Page 15: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Strong acids and the pH scale
An acidic solution must have a [H+] conc greater than 1.0 X 10-7 ex 1.0 X 10-6
-log [1.0 X 10-6] = pH 6 What is the pH of a basic solution?
A basic solution is one in which the [OH-]
is greater than 1X10-7.
![Page 16: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Calc. pH of strong basic solutions Calculate the pH of a sol that has a [OH-]
con. Of 1.0 X10-5
Kw = 1x10-14 = [H+] [OH-]
Kw = 1x10-14 = [H+] [1.0X10-5]
[H+] = 1x10-14 = 1.0 X 10-9
1.0X10-5
pH = -log 1.0 x 10-9 pH = 9
![Page 17: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The “p” Scale
The negative log of a quantity is labeled p (quantity)
Ex: we could reference the quantity of OH- directly: pOH = -log[OH-] From the definition of Kw -log Kw =(-log [H+]) (-log [OH-])= -log 1x10-4
Kw = pH + pOH = 14
![Page 18: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Calc. pH using the p scale
Ex. OH- conc = 1.0X10-5
-log 1.0X10-5 = 5 = pOH pH + pOH = 14 pH + 5 = 14 pH = 9
![Page 19: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Weak Acids partially ionize in aqueous solution mixture of ions and un-ionized acid in sol. WA are in equilibrium (H20 is left out
because it a pure liquid)
HA(aq) + H20(l) H30+(aq) + A-
(aq)
Ka is the acid dissociation constant Ka = [H30] [A-] = [H+] [A-] [HA] [HA]
![Page 20: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Acid Dissociation Constant
The larger the Ka value the stronger the acid is – more product is in solution
![Page 21: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Weak Bases
Weak bases in water react to release a hydroxide (OH-) ion and their conjugate acid:
Weak Base(aq) + H2O(l) Conjugate Acid(aq) + OH-(aq)
![Page 22: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
A common weak base is ammonia NH3(aq) + H2O(l) NH4
+(aq) + OH-(aq)
Since H2O is a pure liquid it is not expressed in the equilibrium Kb expression
Kb = [NH4+][OH-] (base dissociation
[NH3] constant) Kb always refers to the equilibrium in
which a base reacts with H2O to form the conjugate acid and OH-
![Page 23: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Lewis Acids and Bases Review - An Arrhenius acid reacts in water
to release a proton - base reacts in water to release a hydroxide ion
In the Bronstead-Lowry description of acids and bases: acid reacts to donate a proton - a base accepts a proton
![Page 24: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
G.N.Lewis defination - Lewis acid is defined as an electron-
pair acceptor Lewis base is defined as an electron-
pair donor
![Page 25: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
In the example with ammonia, the ammonia is acting as a Lewis base (donates a pair of electrons), and the proton is a Lewis acid (accepts a pair of electrons)
![Page 26: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Lewis is consistent with the description by Arrhenius, and with the definition by Bronstead-Lowry. However, the Lewis description, a base is not restricted in donating its electrons to a proton, it can donate them to any molecule that can accept them.
![Page 27: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Calculating the pH of a Weak Acid
What is the pH of an aq sol that is 0.0030M pyruvic acid HC2H3P3? Ka = 1.4x10-4 at 25oC
HC2H3P3 H+ + C2H3P3-
I 0.0030 0 0 C -X X X E 0.0030-X +X +X
![Page 28: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Ka = [H+] [C2H3P3-] pluggin in the values
[HC2H3P3] from the table
1.4x10-4 = X2
(0.0030-X)
1.4x10-4 (0.0030) = X2
4.2x10-7-1.4x10-4x = X2
X2 + 1.4x10-4x-4.2x10-7 = 0 a quadratic
ignore the neg sol x = 5.82 x10-4
pH = -log 5.82 x10-4 pH = 3.24

Learning Check What is the pH at 25oC of a solution made
by dissolving a 5.00 grain tablet of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) in 0.500 liters of water? The tablet contains 0.325g of the acid HC9H7O4. Ka = 3.3x10-4 mm = 180.2g/l
H+ = 9.4x10-4 pH = 3.03
![Page 30: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Buffers
A solution that resists changes in pH when a limited amount of an acid or base is added to it.
Buffers contain either a weak acid and it’s conj. base or a weak base and it’s conj. acid.
![Page 31: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Examples Ex. Weak acid and conj. base equal molar amounts Strong Acid added H+ + A- HA conj. base weak acid the conj base interacts with the H+ ions from the strong acid changing them to a weak acid
![Page 32: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Strong base added OH + HA HOH + A-
weak acid conj base the weak acid interacts with the OH- ion
from the base to form water and the conj. base
If the concentration of A- and HA are large and the amount of H+ or OH- is small the
solution will be buffered or the change in pH will be minimized.
![Page 33: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Buffering capacity – the amount of acid or base a buffer can react with before a significant change in pH occurs
Ratio of acid to conj base – unless the ratio is close to 1 ( between 1:10 and 10:1) will be too low to be useful.
![Page 34: Acid and Base Equilibrium](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56815b15550346895dc8c4a4/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Calculating the pH of a buffer
Note: a solution of 0.10 M acedic acid and its conj base 0.20 M acetate from sodium acetate is a buffer solution pH = 5.07
Ex. Calc. the pH of a buffer by mixing 60.0 ml of 0.100 M NH3 with 40.0ml of 0.100 M NH4Cl.
