  1. ACIDS AND BASES CLENT MARK C. GAITERA JOHN ALEX C. OCAY

  2. 1. What are the physical and chemical behavior of acids and bases? Acids • Taste sour, are corrosive to metals, change litmus (a dye extracted from lichens) red, and become less acidic when mixed with bases. Bases • Feel slippery, change litmus blue, and become less basic when mixed with acids.

  3. Arrhenius defined bases • -As substances that dissolve in water to • release hydroxide ions (OH-) into solution. • -Neutralize acids in a neutralization reaction • -Denature protein. • -Turn red litmus to blue. • -Taste bitter. Arrhenius suggested that acids • Are compounds that contain hydrogen • Can dissolve in water to release hydrogen ions into solution. • Neutralize bases in a neutralization reaction. • Corrode active metals • Acids turn blue litmus to red • Acids taste sour

  4. The Brønsted-Lowry definition of acids • Any substance that can donate a hydrogen • Often referred to as proton donors because an H+ ion, hydrogen minus its electron, is simply a proton The Brønsted definition of bases • Any substance that can accept a hydrogen ion.  • The opposite of an acid.

  5. The Lewis definitions of acids • Are electron pair acceptors • The Lewis definitions of bases • Are electron pair donors.

  6. 2. How do we differentiate an acid from a base? • We can differentiate acid from a base by: -Tasting (sour – acid, bitter – base) -Using pH indicators (litmus paper, methyl red etc.)

  7. 3. How are the strength of acids and bases identified? • You can identify the strengths by testing them using pH indicators  • Strong Acid: An acid that has a very low pH (0-4). • Strong Base: A base that has a very high pH (10-14). • Weak Acid: An acid that only partially ionizes in an aqueous solution. That means not every molecule breaks apart. They usually have a pH close to 7 (3-6).

  8. Weak Base: A base that only partially ionizes in an aqueous solution. That means not every molecule breaks apart. They usually have a pH close to 7 (8-10). • Neutral: A solution that has a pH of 7. It is neither acidic nor basic.

  9. 4. How are acids and bases quantified? • Acids and Bases are quantified by the use of Ka, for acid dissociation constant while Kb, for base dissociation constant. These constants are expressed as the product of the concentrations of the ions formed after dissociation divided by the original concentration of the substance.

  10. 5. What are pH indicators? • a weak acid or a weak base. • The undissociated form is a different color than the iogenic form. • does not change color from pure acid to pure alkaline at specific hydrogen ion concentration, but rather, color change occurs over a range of hydrogen ion concentrations. This range is termed the color change interval. It is expressed as a pH range.

  11. 6. What are common applications/uses of acids and bases? • The most important single use of acids and bases is in the manufacture of other chemicals. Fertilizers, synthetic fabrics, pigments, petroleum, iron and steel, explosives, dyes, plastics, pesticides, soaps and detergents, paper, film, and many other chemicals are produced from acids and bases. They are also used for various other purposes, including cleaning surfaces, refining oil and sugar, electroplating metals, and treating food products.
