(Table E) o Know the definitions of Arrhenius acids and bases o If given the properties, chemical formula, or name, identify a substance as an Arrhenius acid or Arrhenius base. (Use Tables K, L, and T to help you remember these definitions.

ACIDS, BASES, AND SALTS

Knowledge Application

1.

o The behavior of many acids and bases can beexplained by the Arrhenius Theory.

o Arrhenius acids produce H+ (hydrogen ions) asthe only positive ions in aqueous solution. Thehydrogen ion may also be written as H3O

+ andcalled the hydronium ion.

o Arrhenius bases produce OH– (hydroxide ions)as the only negative ion is aqueous solution.(Table E)

o Know the definitions of Arrhenius acids and bases

o If given the properties, chemical formula, or name,identify a substance as an Arrhenius acid orArrhenius base. (Use Tables K, L, and T to help youremember these definitions. Arrhenius acids begin with H,Arrhenius bases are metals + hydroxide ion(s). *Don’t befooled by alcohols, which also end in OH, but containcovalent bonds and do not ionize like bases do in solution.ALCOHOLS ARE NOT BASES!)

2.

o Arrhenius acids, Arrhenius bases, and salts (ioniccompounds) are all electrolytes. An electrolyte is asubstance which, when dissolved in water, forms asolution capable of conducting an electric current(electricity). Electrolytes can conduct electricitybecause they ionize (break apart into ions) in asolution.

o The ability of a solution to conduct an electriccurrent depends on the concentration of the ions init (more ions, more conduction).

o Given names or chemical formulas, identify acids,bases, and salts as being electrolytes

o Determine the relative strength (strong or weak)of an electrolyte given information on its abilityto ionize in solution.(Strong acids and strong bases are strong electrolytes –Tables K and L list acids and bases in order fromstrongest to weakest.If a salt is soluble, it is a strong electrolyte – Table F canbe used to determine the solubility of different salts.)

3.

o In the process of neutralization, an Arrhenius acidand an Arrhenius base react to form a salt andwater.

Acid + Base Salt + Water

o Recognize neutralization reactions when given thereaction equation

o Write neutralization reactions when given thereactants. (Remember that this is a double replacementreaction. Just switch the positive ions, look up theircharges and cross down the subscripts if needed. Thenbalance the equation.)

4.

o Titration is a laboratory process in which a volumeof solution with a known concentration is added toanother solution of unknown concentration.Titrations are done to determine the concentrationof the unknown solution.

o Calculate the concentration or volume of asolution, using titration data using the equation

Ma x Va = Mb x Vb (This equation is on Table T)

5. o There are alternate acid-base theories. One

such theory states that the acid is a proton donor(H+ donor) and the base is a proton acceptor.

o Give the alternate definitions of acids and baseso Use this definition to explain why ammonia is

considered a base

6.

o The acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solutioncan be measured using the pH scale.

o The pH scale measures the concentration ofH+/H3O

+ in a solution. [H+] = 10–pH

A pH of 1 means that the [H+] = 10–1 = 0.1MA pH of 3 means that the [H+] = 10–3 = 0.001M

Acids have pH values between 0 and 7 (the stronger the acid, the lower the pH and the more H+)

[H+] [OH–]

Neutral solutions have a pH of 7 [H+] = [OH–]

Bases have pH values between 7 and 14 (the stronger the base, the higher the pH and the more OH–)

[H+] [OH–]

o Identify a solution as acidic, basic (alkaline), orneutral based upon the pH value OR the relativeconcentrations of H+/H3O

+ and OH–

o Describe acidic, basic, and neutral solutions interms of pH value and relative H+/H3O

+ and OH–

concentrationso Differentiate between strong acids/bases and

weak acids/bases given pH values or ionconcentrations

7.

o The pH scale is a logarithmic scale, which meansthat a change of one pH unit changes theconcentration of H+/H3O

+ by a factor of ten

tenfold = 10 times = 101

hundredfold = 100 times = 102

thousandfold = 1000 times = 103

The exponents represent the CHANGE in pHo If a solution becomes more acidic,

the pH , and the [H+]/[H3O+]

o If a solution becomes more basic,

the pH , and the [H+]/[H3O+]

o Determine the new pH value of a solution giventhe starting pH and the amount of increase ordecrease in [H+]/[H3O

+] (such as tenfold, ahundredfold, or a thousandfold)

Ex: A lake with an initial pH of 6 has been affected by acid rain. The acid rain has caused a hundredfold change in the [H+] concentration of the lake. What is the new pH of the lake?

Answer: pH = 4

o Determine the amount that the [H+]/[H3O+]

would increase or decrease given a certain changein pH

o Interpret changes in acid-base indicator coloro Explain how different indicators can be used to

distinguish between solutions with different pHvalues

pH:pH is a scale that measures the hydronium ion (H+) concentration of a solution. A pH of less than 7 indicates an acidic solution. A solution with a pH of 7 is neutral. A solution with a pH of 7 to 14 is basic and contains a higher concentration of hydroxide ions than hydronium ions. Indicators are substances that change color in the presence of certain ions. Phenolphthalein is colorless in an acid and a neutral solution, but pink in a base. Litmus is red in an acid and blue in a base. This is outlined on Table M of the Reference Tables. For each of the following substances indicate the pH range expected: acid = pH < 7, neutral = pH = 7, or base = pH > 7. Also indicate the color the indicator will appear based on these values. Finally, state if the substance is an acid (A) or a base (B).

Lesson 8: (Acid-Base) Titration:

Titrations are used to CALCULATE THE CONCENTRATION (MOLARITY) OF AN UNKNOWN SOLUTION

Acid of unkown molarity is reacted with a carefully measuredamount of a base of known molarity to the point of_____________________ (or vice versa)

In all neutralization reactions there must be a _____________ between the ______________________ and the ______________________

So, in a titration, when: _______ = _______

or ______________________ = ______________________

that means you’ve reached the _____________________ of the reaction; this is when the titration is complete. The ______________ of a titration is the pH at which the solution changes color permanently.

What does a Titration look like?

Titration formula (Table T): MA VA = MB VB

Where: MA = molarity of acid (H+) VA = volume of acid MB = molarity of base (OH-) VB = volume of base

Use this formula when you are dealing with atitration or neutralization word problem

Make sure that all units are in agreementwhen plugging into formula (so they cancel outand you get the right answer!)

Lab - Hydronium vs. Hydroxide: A Battle to the End Point

It is sometimes necessary to experimentally determine

the concentration of an acid solution or a base solution. A

procedure used for this is called an acid-base titration. In

this procedure, a solution of known concentration, called the

standard solution, is used to neutralize a precisely measured

volume of the solution of unknown concentration, to which an

indicator has been added. If the solution of unknown

concentration is acidic, a standard base solution is added to

the acid solution until neutralized. If the solution of unknown

concentration is basic, a standard acid solution is added to the

base solution until it is neutralized.

When carrying out an acid base titration, you must be

able to recognize when to stop adding the standard solution

(when the point of neutralization is reached). This is the

purpose of the indicator. A sudden change in color of the indicator signals that neutralization has

occurred. At this point, the number of hydrogen ions H+ (or hydronium ions, H3O+) from the acid equals

the number of hydroxide ions (OH-) from the base. The point at which this occurs is called the endpoint

of the titration. The volumes of the standard solution and the unknown solution are measured, and

applied to the following equation:

MaVa= MbVb

Ma =Molarity of the acid solution Mb = Molarity of the basic solution

Va =Volume of the acid solution Vb = Volume of the basic solution

Objective: In this experiment you will determine the molarity of an unknown HCl with a standard

solution of 1.0 M NaOH .

The equation for this reaction is: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

Materials and Equipment:

burette stand, burette clamp, 100 ml graduated cylinder, 25 mL graduated cylinder, 250 mL

Erlenmeyer flask, 2 - 250 mL beakers, dropper bottle of phenolphthalein, distilled water and funnel

Procedure:

1. Put on goggles. Keep them on until your instructor gives the OK for everyone to remove them.

2. Label two beakers: A (for acid) and B (for base).

3. In Beaker A obtain approximately 75 mL of acid, and in Beaker B obtain 75 mL base from the stock

bottles. Record the known concentration of the base on your Data sheet.

4. Rinse the burette with distilled water. Let it run out into the sink. Then rinse once with 5-10 mL of

base. Again let it run into the sink with the faucet slowly running. Then close the stopcock. It

should be perpendicular to the burette.

5. Hold the top of the burette at eye level or slightly below. Using the funnel, carefully add the base to

the burette. Go about an inch past the top line on the burette, being careful not to let it overflow.

Then again hold the burette over the sink. Open the stopcock and let excess base run into the sink

(while you run water) until the base in the burette is at or just below the 0 mark. This allows any

trapped air bubbles to be removed. Now place the burette in its holder.

6. Record the initial volume of the base in the burette to the nearest 0.1 mL in the table.

7. Rinse out the graduated cylinder and Erlenmeyer flask with distilled water. Use the graduated

cylinder and a pipette to measure out about 20 mL of the acid. Record the exact amount in the

data table to the nearest 0.1 mL. Carefully pour into the Erlenmeyer flask.

8. Use the dropper pipet to add 2 to 3 drops of phenolphthalein to the flask.

9. Put the flask under the burette. Put a piece of white paper underneath it. The tip of the burette

should be within the flask.

10. Slowly add base to the flask, while constantly swirling the flask. The pink color should fade with

swirling. When the pink color persists for longer periods, add the base more slowly until you are

adding it drop by drop.

** It is titrated when 1 drop of base causes a pink color that persists for 10-20 seconds (with swirling)

and then disappears. At this point, your solution is at the end point.

11. Record the final volume of the base in the burette in the table to the nearest 0.1 mL.

12. Dump the contents of the flask down the drain。Repeat the experiment from Step 6 above. If the

burette need to be refilled, make sure you record the new initial volume.

13. When done with both trials, drain the burette down the drain while running water. Rinse burette

with distilled water. Hang burette upside down on the burette clamp with paper towel underneath.

Rinse out the burette funnel with water. Dispose of excess acid and base from the beakers as

directed. Clean up and return supplies.

14. Do calculations and answer questions.
