  1. Chemistry 1011 TOPIC Acids and Bases TEXT REFERENCE Masterton and Hurley Chapter 4.2 (Review), 13, 14.1, 15.1 (page 427), 21.2 (page589) Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  2. 13.3 pH and pOH YOU ARE EXPECTED TO BE ABLE TO: • Define pH and pOH. • Calculate the pH and pOH of a solution given the concentration of hydrogen ions or the concentration of hydroxide ions, and vice versa. • Identify strong acids and bases • Calculate the pH and pOH of solutions of strong acids and bases of known concentration. • Identify methods of measuring pH Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  3. Defining pH • The acidity or basicity of a solution can be described by the [H+] or [OH-] • These concentrations can vary from 10-1 to 10-14 • The pH scale was proposed in order to provide an easier means of describing acidity pH = -log10 [H+] Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  4. Logarithms and pH Examples • If a = bc, then logba = c • If a = 10c, then log10a = c • If [H+] = 10-1, then log10 [H+] = -1 or -log10 [H+] = 1 • What is the pH of a solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of 10-2mol/L pH = -log10 [H+] = -log10 [10-2] = 2 Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  5. pH Examples • What is the pH of a water sample that has a hydrogen ion concentration of 4.0 x 10-5? pH = -log10 [H+] = -log10 [4.0 x 10-5] = • What is the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution with a pH of 5.6? pH = -log10 [H+] 5.6 = -log10 [H+] [H+] = Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  6. pOH • pOH is determined in the same way as pH pOH = -log10 [OH-] • Since KW = [H+]x[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-14 It follows that pH + pOH = 14 • If a solution has a pH of 5.6, then the pOH will be 8.4 • It will be basic Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  7. Interpreting the pH Scale • In an acidic solution, [H+] > 1.0 x 10-7 [OH-] < 1.0 x 10-7 pH 0 to 7 • In a basic solution, [H+] < 1.0 x 10-7 [OH-] > 1.0 x 10-7 pH 7 to 14 Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  8. Calculating the pH of a Strong Acid • Strong acids and bases are fully ionized in dilute aqueous solution HCl(aq) H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) NaOH(aq) Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) • The [H+] or [OH-] can be determined from the [acid] or [base] Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  9. Example - Calculating the pH of a Strong Acid • What is the pH of a 2.5 x 10-2 mol/L solution of sulfuric acid, H2SO4(aq)? H2SO4 is a strong acid H2SO4 2H+(aq) + SO42-(aq) [H+] = 2 x 2.5 x 10-2 mol/L pH = -log10 [H+] = -log10 [5.0 x 10-2] = Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  10. Example - Calculating the pH of a Strong Base • What is the pH of a 5.0 x 10-2 mol/L solution of barium hydroxide, Ba(OH)2(aq)? Ba(OH)2 is a strong base Ba(OH)2 Ba2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) [OH-] = 2 x 5.0 x 10-2 mol/L pOH = -log10 [OH-] = -log10 [1.0 x 10-1] = 1 pH = 14 - pOH = 13 Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  11. pH of Common Materials • Lemon Juice 2.2 - 2..4 • Vinegar 3.0 • Tomato Juice 4.0 • Cheese 4.8 - 6.4 • Cow’s Milk 6.3 - 6.6 • Human Saliva 6.5 - 7.5 • Human Blood 7.3 - 7.5 • Seawater 8.3 Chemistry 1011 Slot 5

  12. Measuring pH • pH Meter • Acid-base indicators • fruit juices • litmus • universal indicator (a mixture of different indicators that change colour at different pH’s) • indicator paper Chemistry 1011 Slot 5
