HCl gas is a _________ compound. • When dissolves in water, it forms HCl acid which dissociate • to form ions. dissociate covalent

  9. What is basicity (proticity)? • Basicity • refers to the no.of _________ atoms in one molecule of acid • that can be replaced by a ______. • E.g. HCl (monobasic), • H2SO4(dibasic), • H3PO4(tribasic) hydrogen metal

  10. Bronsted-Lowry theory An acid is defined as a molecule or ion that acts as a proton ______. A base is defned as a molecule or ion that acts as a proton ________. donor acceptor

  11. Types of acids • Acids that have single proton to donate – ___________. E.g. HCl(aq), HNO3(aq), HNO2(aq) • Acids that have 2 protons to donate – __________ . E.g. H2SO4(aq), H2SO3(aq), H2CO3(aq) • H3PO4(aq) is _________. monobasic dibasic tribasic

  12. Hydrogen chloride gas dissolved in water (solvent) HCl(g) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq) The equation can be split into (i) HCl(aq) Cl-(aq) + H+(aq) (ii) H2O(l) + H+(aq) H3O+(aq) acid conjugate base base conjugate acid Acidic behaviour is a transfer reaction in different solvents.

  14. Acid Strength & pKa Acid strength is the tendency of an acid to donate a proton. The more readily a compound donates a proton, the stronger is an acid.

  15. Acidity Acidity is measured by an equilibrium constant, Keq. When a Bronsted-Lowry acid H-A is dissolved in water, an acid-base reaction occurs, and an equilibrium constant can be written for the reaction. H H-A + H-O-H A- + H-O-H [H3O+][A -] [products] : Keq= = [HA][H2 O] [reactants]

  16. Acidity and pKa The concentration of the solvent H2O is essentially constant, More convenient when describing acid strength to use “pKa” values than Ka. [H3O+][A -] Dissociation constant, Ka =[H2 O]Keq = [HA]

  19. If HA is a strong acid in water, • HA is a successful donor of H+ in water • the reverse reaction hardly happens • A- is a poor acceptor of H+ • Ka (dissociation constant) is big HA + H2O H3O + + A- Equilibrium lies to the right.

  26. Dative (Coordinate) bond • A dative covalent bond is always formed in a Lewis acid-base reaction. • For a substance to act as a base, it must have space to accept the _________of electrons. lone pair

  27. Strong and weak acids and bases Strong acid • When strong acid (HA) dissolves, virtually all acid molecules react with the water to produce hydronium ions (H3O+). HA + H2O(l)  H3O+(aq) + A-(aq) or HA  H+(aq) + A-(aq) 0% 100% 0% 100% Examples : HCl, H2SO4,HNO3, HClO4

  28. Strong and weak acids and bases Weak acid • When a weak acid dissolves in water, only a small % of its molecules (typically 1%) react with water molecules to release hydrogen or hydronium ions.

  29. Distinguish between strong and weak acids Base on the information above, how do we distinguish between strong and weak acids of the same concentration (e.g. HCl and CH3COOH)?

  30. How to distinguish between strong and weak acids? H+ • A weak acid has a lower concentration of ___ and hence a higher _____ than a stronger acid of the same concentration. • Due to the lower concentration of hydrogen ions, a weak acid has poorer ___________________ than a stronger acid of the same concentration (equimolar). • Weak acids react more _______ with reactive metals, metal oxides, metal carbonates and metal hydrogencarbonates than strong acids of the same concentration. • Strong and weak acids can also be distnguished by measuring and comparing their enthalpies of neutralisation. pH electrical conductivity slowly What is the difference between the strength (strong and weak) and the concentrated (concentrated or dilute)?

  31. Strong and weak acids and bases Strong base • A strong base undergoes almost 100% ____________________ when in dilute aqueous solution. dissociation / ionisation BOH  B+(aq) + OH-(aq) 0% 100% Examples : NaOH, KOH, Ba(OH)2

  33. The pH (power of hydrogen) indicator strength • scale that measures the ________ of an acid and alkali. • pH of a substance is measured when it is dissolved in water. • [H+] = 1 x 10-n moldm-3 ( n = pH number)

  34. The pH Scale

  35. pH probe and meter An accurate method of measuring pH value. A pH probe is dipped into the solution being tested and the pH value is then read directly from the meter.

  36. pH Calculation • pH is a measure of the concentration of H+ ions in a solution. • pH = -log10[H+(aq)] Example: If the concentration of H+ is (a) 1.0 x 10-3 moldm-3 (b) 1.0 x 10-2 moldm-3 (c) 2.50 x 10-3 moldm-3 , what is the pH? Compare (a) & (b) 2.60

  37. Example: Calculate the concentration of H+ of a solution that has a pH = 3.2. 6.31 x 10-4

  38. Example: Calculate the concentration of H+ and hence the pH of a 1.00 x 10-3 moldm-3 NaOH

  39. Example: • (a) What is the pH of 10cm3 of 0.1 moldm-3 HCl? (b) If 90cm3 of water is added to the acid, what happens to the pH? • (c) If the solution from (b) is diluted by a factor of 105 , what is the approximate pH? [(a)1,(b)2,(c)7]

  40. Buffer pH • A buffer resists changes in _____ when small amounts of acid and alkali are added to it.

  41. Acidic Buffer • An acidic buffer solution can be made by mixing a weak ______ together with the _______ of the weak acid and a strong _______. (1) CH3COOH(aq) H +(aq) + CH3COO-(aq) (2) CH3COONa(aq) Na+(aq) + CH3COO-(aq) acid salt base

  42. Acidic Buffer • If an acid is added, the extra H+ from the acid react with the excess ethanoate ions in (2) and are _________ from the solution as ethanoic acid molecules (these have no effect on the pH). Hence the pH stays the same. CH3COO-(aq) + H +(aq) CH3COOH(aq) removed new

  43. Acidic Buffer • If an alkali is added, the OH- from the alkali react with the ________ions from (1) removing them from the right hand side. There is, however, a large reservoir of ethanoic acid on the left hand side of this equilibrium able to dissociate and make more hydrogen ions, restoring the pH. CH3COOH(aq)+OH-(aq) CH3COO-(aq)+H2O(l) hydrogen

  44. Alkali Buffer • An alkali buffer with a fixed pH greater than 7 can be made from a weak base together with the salt of the base with a strong acid. • E.g. Ammonia and ammonium chloride NH4Cl(aq)  NH4+(aq) +Cl-(aq) NH3(aq) + H2O(l) NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq)

  45. Alkali Buffer (1) NH4Cl(aq)  NH4+(aq) +Cl-(aq) (2) NH3(aq) + H2O(l) NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq) If H+ ions are added they will combine with _____ (from 2) to form water and more of the ammonia will dissociate to replace them Adding more OH- ions that can react with the free ____(from 1) producing more ammonia (as in 2) and effectively being removed from the system. The ammonia molecules have no effect on ____ an therefore the pH remains the same. In both cases, the hydroxide ion concentration and the hydrogen ion concentration remain constant. OH- NH+ pH
