16-1 The Arrhenius Theory: A Brief Review
HCl(g) → H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
NaOH(s) → Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)H2O
H2O
Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) → H2O(l) + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
H+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)
Arrhenius theory did not handle non OH- bases such as ammonia very well.

pH and pOH
The potential of the hydrogen ion was defined in 1909 as the negative of the logarithm of [H+].
pH = -log[H3O+] pOH = -log[OH-]
-logKW = -log[H3O+]-log[OH-]= -log(1.010-14)
KW = [H3O+][OH-]= 1.010-14
pKW = pH + pOH= -(-14)

Determining a Value of KA from the pH of a Solution of a Weak Acid. Butyric acid, HC4H7O2 (or CH3CH2CH2CO2H) is used to make compounds employed in artificial flavorings and syrups. A 0.250 M aqueous solution of HC4H7O2 is found to have a pH of 2.72. Determine KA for butyric acid.
HC4H7O2 + H2O C4H7O2 + H3O+
Ka = ?

Solution:
For HC4H7O2 KA is likely to be much larger than KW. Therefore assume self-ionization of water is unimportant.

General Approach to Solution Equilibrium Calculations
Identify species present in any significant amounts in solution (excluding H2O).
Write equations that include these species. Number of equations = number of unknowns.
◦ Equilibrium constant expressions.
◦ Material balance equations.
◦ Electroneutrality condition.
Solve the system of equations for the unknowns.

16-8 Molecular Structure and Acid-Base Behavior
Why is HCl a strong acid, but HF is a weak one? Why is CH3CO2H a stronger acid than CH3CH2OH?
There is a relationship between molecular structure and acid strength.
Bond dissociation energies are measured in the gas phase and not in solution.

Strengths of Oxoacids
Factors promoting electron withdrawal from the OH bond to the oxygen atom: High electronegativity (EN) of the central atom. A large number of terminal O atoms in the molecule.
