Arrhenius Definition of Acids and Bases Acids produce H+ in aqueous (water) solutions water HCl H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) Bases produce OH- in aqueous (water) solutions water NaOH Na+ (aq) + OH- (aq)
The Hydronium Ion (H30+) • Acids produce the H+ ion • This is just a “bare proton” and is very reactive. • It immediately forms a coordinate covalent bond with nearby water molecules to form (H30+).
Acids Produce H+ (as H3O+) ions in water Electrolytes (conduct in solution) Taste sour pH is < 7 Corrode metals (see Table J) React with bases to form salts and water (Neutralization)
Bases Produce OH- ions in water Electrolytes (conduct in solution) Taste bitter, chalky pH is >7 Feel soapy, slippery React with acids to form salts and water (Neutralization)

Some Common AcidsSee Table K HCl hydrochloric acid HNO3 nitric acid H3PO4 phosphoric acid H2SO4 sulfuric acid HC2H3O2 acetic acid
Naming Acids (Honors) • Binary Acids • (Contain 2 elements only) • Ex: HCl, HBr, H2S, HF • Hydro __________ ic Acid
Naming Acids (Honors) • Ternary Acids • (Contain hydrogen and a polyatomic ion) • Do NOT start with “Hydro” • Look at name of polyatomic ion • If it ends in “ate” the acid ends in “ic” • If it ends in “ite” the acid ends in “ous”
HBr HNO3 H3PO4 HNO2 H2C2O4 HClO HBrO HClO4 H2S HIO3 Name These Acids
HBr = hydrobromic acid HNO3 = nitric acid H3PO4 = phosphoric acid HNO2 = nitrous acid H2C2O4 = oxalic acid HClO = hypochlorous acid HBrO = hypobromous acid HClO4 = perchloric acid H2S = hydrosulfuric acid HIO3 = iodic acid Name These Acids
Organic Acids • Contain carbon • Only one of the hydrogens is “acidic” and dissociates in solution • Ex: Acetic Acid • HC2H3O2 or CH3COOH
Naming Bases • Name them like any other ionic compound. • Name usually ends in “hydroxide” • Ex: LiOH = lithium hydroxide
Some Common BasesSee Table L NaOH sodium hydroxide KOH potassium hydroxide Ba(OH)2 barium hydroxide Mg(OH)2 magnesium hydroxide Al(OH)3 aluminum hydroxide
Important Note • There are no “organic bases” (containing carbon). C2H5OH for example is not a base. It is an alcohol. The OH on this molecule does not dissociate to form OH- (hydroxide ion)
Salts • “Salts” are ionic compounds that are not acids or bases. • Metal cation (+) & nonmetal anion (-) • They are electrolytes • Ex: NaCl, MgSO4, Li2S
Learning Check Acid, Base Name or Salt CaCl2 ______ _______________ KOH ______ _______________ Ba(OH)2 ______ _______________ HBr ______ _______________ H2SO4 ______ ________________
Answers Acid,Base Name or Salt CaCl2 salt calcium chloride KOH base potassium hydroxide Ba(OH)2 base barium hydroxide HBr acid hydrobromic acid H2SO4 acid sulfuric acid
Dissociation • Dissociation: when a compound splits apart into ions in solution. How might these dissociate? H2SO4 KOH
Acids React with Metals • See Reference Table J • Metals above Hydrogen on the table will react with acids to form a salt and H2 gas • Single Replacement Reaction 2Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)
Will an acid react with these metals? • If so complete and balance the single replacement reaction. Mg + HNO3 Cu + HCl Ca + H2SO4
Answers Mg + 2HNO3 Mg(NO3)2 + H2 Cu + HCl No reaction Cu in below hydrogen on Table J Ca + H2SO4 Ca(SO4) + H2

Pure Water is Neutral Self Ionization of Water: a small quantity of water molecules in a sample will self ionize. This results in a small, but equal amount of H+ and OH- H2O H+ + OH- Hydrogen Ion = Hydroxide Ion [H+] = [OH-] H+ OH-

Acids Increase the H+ concentration As H+ increases, OH- decreases [H+] > [OH-] H+ OH-
Bases Increase the hydroxide ion (OH-) concentration When OH- increases, H+ decreases [OH] > [H+] OH- H+
Important Summary • Acidic: [H+] > [OH-] • Basic: [H+] < [OH-] • Neutral: [H+] = [OH-]
Determining if it is an Acid or Base • How can you tell if something is acidic or basic?
Acid/Bases IndicatorsSee Table M Examples: • Litmus • pH range for color change (4.5 – 8.3) • Color change: red to blue • Phenolphthalein • pH range for color change (8 - 9) • Color change: colorless to pink What color would these be if the pH = 10? pH = 3?
pH Scale 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 910 11 12 13 14 Neutral [H+]>[OH-][H+] = [OH-][OH-]>[H+] Acidic Basic
Pretty Hydrangeas • The color of hydrangea flowers depends on the pH of the soil.
What is pH? • Tells us the relative quantity of H+ ions (or the acidity) in solution. • The greater the [H+] the lower the pH.
Calculating pH pH = - log [H+] From the French pouvoir hydrogene (“hydrogen power” or power of hydrogen)
[H+] pH 1 x 10-5 M 5 1 x 10-9 M 9 1 x 10-11M 11
Calculating pOH • What if you are given the concentration of a base? • Ex: .000001M LiOH You need to find the pOH!!
pOH pOH = -log [OH-] Ex: .000001M LiOH = 1 x 10-6 pOH = 6 Ex: .0001M NaOH = 1 x 10-4 pOH = 4
How can you find pH of a Base? • Easy!!! pH + pOH = 14 Ex: .000001M LiOH = 1 x 10-6 pOH = 6 pH = 8 Ex: .0001M NaOH = 1 x 10-4 pOH = 4 pH = 10
Kw If you know the concentration of one ion you can find the other! [H+] x [OH-] = 1 x 10-14 This is called the Kw Or the “ion product” of water.
So what is the [OH-] is the [H+] is .001M? [1 x 10-3] x [OH-] = 1 x 10-14 [OH-] = 1 x 10-11 Everything keeps adding up to 14!! What’s up with that?
Let’s Try It You have a .001 HCl solution. Find: [H+], [OH-], pH, pOH
Let’s Try It You have a .000000001M NaOH solution. Find: [H+], [OH-], pH, pOH
