Solutions of acids & bases
• The amounts of hydrogen ions (H+) & hydroxide ions (OH-) determine whether a solution is acidic, basic, or neutral.
– Acidic solutions contain more H+ than OH-
– Basic solutions contain more OH- than H+
– Neutral solutions contain equal amounts

Arrhenius model
• In 1883, Svante Arrhenius proposed the Arrhenius model of acids & bases to explain how pure water could become acidic or basic.

Arrhenius model
• According to the Arrhenius model
– An acid is a substance that contains hydrogen & ionizes to produce H+ in solution
HClO4 H+ + ClO4-
– A base is a substance that contains a hydroxide group & ionizes to produce OH- in solution
NaOH Na+ + OH-

Bronsted-Lowry Model
• Johannes Bronsted & Thomas Lowry proposed a better model for acids & bases that focuses on the role of the proton, or H+.
• According to the Bronsted-Lowry model:– An acid donates a proton, or H+
– A base accepts a proton, or H+
![Page 8: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Explanation
When an acid, HX, dissolves in water, it donates a H+ to a water molecule. The water acts as a base & accepts the H+.
HX + H2O H3O+ + X-
On accepting the H+, the water becomes an acid, H3O+. The hydronium is an acid because it has an extra H+ it can donate. On donating its H+, the acid becomes a base, X-. The reaction can also occur in the reverse direction.

Conjugates
• The products of an acid-base reaction are known as the conjugate acid-base pair.
– The conjugate acid is the species produced when a base accepts a H+ from an acid.
– The conjugate base is the species that results when an acid donates an H+ to a base.

Amphoteric:substances, like water, that can act as acids or
bases
![Page 12: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Strong Acids
• Strong acids are acids that ionize completely in solution.
HCl + H2O H3O+ + Cl-
• Strong acids:HCl HBr HI HClO4 HNO3 H2SO4
![Page 13: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Weak Acids
• Weak acids are acids that ionize only partially in solution.
• All other acids are weak acids
HC2H3O2 + H2O H3O+ + C2H3O2-
• In the reaction, the acetic acid does not ionize completely & some of the acetic acid ions remain in molecular form in the solution.
![Page 14: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Cont’d…
• The double arrow in the reaction means the reaction is an equilibrium reaction.
• The equilibrium constant expression is written by placing the concentration of the product in the numerator & the concentration of the reactants in the denominator.
• Water is a constant so it is not added to the expression.
• Ka is the acid ionization constant.
– The weaker the acid, the smaller the Ka.
– The stronger the acid, the larger the Ka.
![Page 15: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Strong & Weak Bases
• The same application that apply for acids, apply for bases except using OH-.
• Strong bases ionize completely in solution• Weak bases ionize only partially in solution.• The equilibrium equation for bases use the
base ionization constant, Kb.
• The strong bases are:
NaOH KOH Ca(OH)2 RbOH CsOH Ba(OH)2
![Page 16: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Water
• Water always ionizes itself a little.
H2O H+ + OH-
• This gives us a special constant that applies to the self-ionization of water.
Kw= [H+][OH-]
Kw is the ion product constant for water.
![Page 17: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Cont’d…
• In pure water at 298K, [H+] & [OH-] always equal 1.0x10-7 M.
• Therefore, Kw= (1.0x10-7)(1.0x10-7)
Kw= 1.0x10-14
• You can use Kw to calculate the concentration of either ion if you know the concentration of the other.
![Page 18: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Problem
Using the ion product constant for water, calculate [OH-] if
[H+]= 3.0x10-2 M
![Page 19: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
pH scale
• Chemists use a pH scale to express hydrogen ion concentrations.
pH= -log [H+]
• pH means the power of hydrogen• pH ranges from 0 to 14• 0 to 7 is acidic• 7 to 14 is basic• 7 is neutral• pH decreases as [H+] increases
![Page 20: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
![Page 21: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
pOH scale
• Chemists can also use the pOH scale to express the basicity, or alkalinity, of a solution.
pOH= -log [OH-]
• pOH ranges from 0 to 14• 0 to 7 is basic• 7 to 14 is acidic• 7 is neutral
![Page 22: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
A chemist can calculate pH or pOH if the other is
known using:
pH + pOH = 14.00
![Page 23: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Problems
Calculate pH.
• [H+]= 1.0x10-2 M
• [H+]= 3.0x10-6 M
• [OH-]= 8.2x10-6 M
• [OH-]= 4.3x10-4 M
![Page 24: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Neutralization
• Occurs when an acid and a base react to form a salt & water
HCl + NaOH NaCl + H2O
![Page 25: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Titration
• The process of determining the concentration of an unknown solution by dripping, or titrating, a known strong acid or base into it
• If the unknown solution is acidic, we titrate the solution with a strong base of a known concentration.
![Page 26: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Steps to Titration
• An indicator is a chemical dye added to the solution whose color is affected by acidic or basic solutions.
![Page 27: Acids & Bases](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/5681389c550346895da050a0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Cont’d…
• As you add the acid or base to the unknown solution, pH slowly rises.
• When the acid is neutralized, pH rises rapidly & the indicator in the solution changes color.
• The color change is called the end point.
