10.1 Acids and Bases
Arrhenius Acid Produce H+ ions in water.
Arrhenius Base Produce OH- ions in water.
Svante August Arrhenius
1884 – Acid & base defined in terms of their effect on water.

In water, the hydrogen ion is not a bare proton, but a proton bonded to water.
The hydrogen ion (H+) in water hydronium ion
H+ and H3O+are used interchangeably
Hydrogen chloride gas completely ionizes in water = K >> 1
Acid strength is based on the amount of H3O+ in solution and a strong acid is one that completely ionizes in aq. solution.
Simple representation:HCl H+ + Cl-HCl (aq) = Hydrochloric acid = is a strong acid
4
Common strong acids and bases
SAIn general:Highly electronegativeVery polar bond
SBIn general:Group I & II hydroxides

Bronsted-Lowry Acids and BasesAcids donate a proton (H+) Bases accept a proton (H+)
Johannes Nicolaus Brønsted
1923o acid-base reactions can be seen as
proton-transfer reactions o acids and bases can be defined in
terms of this proton (H+) transfer.
Thomas Martin Lowry
6
Conjugate Acid-Base Pairs
Each pair is related by a loss and gain of one H+
Conjugate acid has one more H
Conjugate base has one less H

Naming of Acids
Binary Acids 2 elements
H + nonmetal
1st the prefix hydro
2nd name of the nonmetal is modified:
add suffix -ic
3rd add the word acid.
What is the name for H2S?
Hydrosulfuric acid
What is the name for HI?
Hydroiodic acidHCl hydrochloric acid
Ternary Acids 3 elementsH + polyatomic ion
1st change the ending of the polyatomic ion:-ate to -ic-ite to -ous
2nd add the word acid
H2SO4 SO42- sulfate sulfuric acid
H2CO3 CO32- carbonate carbonic acid
What is the name for HNO3 ?
Nitric acid
What is the name for H3PO4 ?
Phosphoric acid

Strong acids have Ka 1Weak acids have Ka 1
10.2 Strengths of Acids and Bases
10
The stronger the acid the weaker its conjugate base
11
Self-ionization of water
Water is an amphoteric substance, it can behave as an acid or a base.
10.3 Ionization of Water
2H2O (l) H3O+ (aq) + OH- (aq)
To Calculate the hydrogen ion concentration
To Calculate the hydroxide ion concentration

To determine pH on your calculator
[H+] = 6.4 x 10-2
pH = 1.19
Significant figures using logs
10.4 The pH Scale
In order to simplify the numbers associated with acid or base strength, one takes the log as follows:
pH = - log [H+]
2. get the log 3. get the negative 1. enter 6.4 x 10-2
Answer?
13
Notice how at a pH of 1 the concentration of the H+ is 1x10-1. Notice that at a pH of 14 the concentration is a much smaller value, 1x10-14. The reason that the more acidic solution has the smaller pH value is because the pH is really measuring the negative exponent. The more negative the value becomes, the smaller the concentration.
[H+] (decimal) [H+] (sci. notation)1 1x100
0.1 1x10-1
0.01 1x10-2
0.001 1x10-3
0.0001 1x10-4
0.00001 1x10-5
0.000001 1x10-6
0.0000001 1x10-7

0.00000000000001 1x10-14
pOH = -log [OH-]pH + pOH = 14

pH can be calculated and measured
pH meter• Tests the voltage of the electrolyte• Converts the voltage to pH• Very cheap, accurate• Must be calibrated with a buffer solution
pH calculations – Solving for [H+]pH calculations – Solving for [H+]
[H+] = 10-3.12 = 7.6 x 10-4 M
If the pH of Coke is 3.12, [H+] = ???Because pH = - log [H+]
then - pH = log [H+]
Take antilog (10x) of both sides and get10-pH = [H+]
to find antilog on your calculator, look for “Shift” or “2nd function” and then the log button
15
In a logarithmic scale a pH change of one unit equals a tenfold change in the conc. of H+ ions.
Therefore gastric acid is 100 times (2x10) more acidic than orange juice, and black coffee is 10 times (1x10)more acidic than urine.
pH can be calculated, measured and estimated

10.7 BuffersThe components of a buffer solutionAre acid-base conjugate pairs.Can be a weak acid and a salt of its conjugate base. Can also be a weak base and a salt of its conjugate acid.Purpose: to maintain the pH of a solution constant.
The phosphate buffer system: H2PO4- and HPO4
2-
The bicarbonate buffer: H2CO3 and HCO3-
Added acid: H2CO3 + H2O H3O+ + HCO3
-
Added base: H2CO3 + OH- H2O + HCO3
-
H2CO3 + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HCO3-
H2PO4- + H2O ↔ H3O+ + HPO4

When an acid or base is added to water, the pH changes drastically.
To a buffer solution, the pH does not change very much, pH is maintained.
18
[H3O+] = Ka x [weak acid]
[conjugate base]
To calculate the pH of a buffer solution:
Buffers are usually a mixture of a weak acid and the salt of its conjugate base.
[H3O+] = Ka x [HA]
[A-]
pH = - log [H3O+]
