Electrolytes • Are substances that form positive(+) and negative (-) ions in water • Conduct an electric current
Electrolytes in the Body • Carry messages send to and from the brain as electrical signals • Maintain cellular function with the correct concentrations electrolytes
Strong Electrolytes are 100% ionized saltsH2O 100%ions NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) H2O CaBr2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2Br- (aq) acidsH2O HCl(g) H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Weak electrolytes • Most of the solute exists as molecules in solution • Only a few solute particles produce ions HF + H2O H3O+(aq) + F- (aq) acid NH3 + H2O NH4+(aq) + OH- (aq) base
Classification of electrolytes • Acids Binary acids • Ternary acids (oxyacids) • Thioacids • Monoprotic acids • Polyprotic acids • Strong acids • Weak acids
Bases Monovalent • Polyvalent • Strong • Weak • Basic oxides – base anhydrides • Oxides of metals • Salts Strong electrolytes!!!
Important Facts • HCl, HNO3 – strong acids • 100% dissociation (no equilibrium, no K) • HCl H+ + Cl– • 0%HCl, 100% H+, 100% Cl– • H+ is a proton, a subatomic particle and does not exist alone in solution • Really H+ + H2O H3O+ (hydronium ion) HNO3 + H2O NO3– + H3O+
