    1. Acid, Base and Buffers

    2. What are Acid and Bases? Definition of Svante Arrhenius (Sweden) in 1884 An Acid is a substance that can release a proton or hydrogen ion (H+) when dissolved in water HCl H+ + Cl- A Base is a substance that can release a Hydroxyl ion when dissolved in water NaOH Na+ +OH-

    3. According to Thomas Lowry (England) or J.N. Bro?nsted (Denmark) working independently in 1923: An Acid is a material that donates a proton: HCl H+ + Cl- CH3COOH CH3COO- + H+ NH4+ NH3 + H+ A Base is a material that can accept a proton OH- + H+ H2O CH3COO- + H+ CH3COOH NH3 + H+ NH4+ Every ion dissociation that involves a hydrogen or hydroxide ion could be considered an acid- base reaction

    4. The G.N. Lewis (1923) idea of acids and bases is broader than the Lowry- Bro?nsted model. The Lewis definitions are: Acids are electron pair acceptors. H+ + e- H Bases are electron pair donors. OH- OH + e-

    5. Acid/Base definitions Definition #1: Arrhenius (traditional) Acids produce H+ ions (or hydronium ions H3O+) Bases produce OH- ions (problem: some bases dont have hydroxide ions!)

    6. Acid/Base Definitions Definition #2: Brnsted Lowry Acids proton donor Bases proton acceptor A proton is really just a hydrogen atom that has lost its electron!

    7. Acids & Base Definitions Lewis acid - a substance that accepts an electron pair

    8. Each ionizable pair has a proton donor and a proton acceptor. Acids are paired with bases. One can accept a proton and the other can donate a proton. Each acid has a proton available (an ionizable hydrogen) and another part, called the conjugate base. When the acid ionizes, the hydrogen ion is the acid and the rest of the original acid is the conjugate base e.g: Nitric acid, HNO3, dissociates (splits) into a hydrogen ion and a nitrate ion. The hydrogen almost immediately joins to a water molecule to make a hydronium ion. The nitrate ion is the conjugate base of the hydrogen ion. In the second part of the reaction, water is a base (because it can accept a proton) and the hydronium ion is its conjugate base. HNO3 + H2O NO3- + H3O+ acid base conjugate conjugate base acid

    10. Conjugate Pairs

    11. Label the acid, base, conjugate acid, and conjugate base in each reaction:

    12. Properties of acids Acids release a hydrogen ion into water (aqueous) solution Acids neutralize bases in a neutralization reaction An acid and a base combine to make a salt and water. A salt is any ionic compound that could be made with the anion of an acid and the cation of a base. HCl + NaOH NaCl + H2O Acids corrode active metals. Acids turn blue litmus to red. Litmus is the oldest known pH indicator. It is red in acid and blue in base. Acids taste sour.

    13. Some Properties of Acids Produce H+ (as H3O+) ions in water (the hydronium ion is a hydrogen ion attached to a water molecule) Taste sour Corrode metals Electrolytes React with bases to form a salt and water pH is less than 7 Turns blue litmus paper to red Blue to Red A-CID

    14. Examples of Some Acids Stomach acid is hydrochloric acid. Acetic acid is the acid ingredient in vinegar. Citrus fruits such as lemons, grapefruit, oranges, and limes have citric acid in the juice. Sour milk, sour cream, yogurt, and cottage cheese have lactic acid from the fermentation of the sugar lactose. Carbon dioxide formed in the body, dissolves in water to form an acid carbonic acid: CO2 + H2O H2CO3 [carbonic acid] Proteins are acidic at pH below their isoelectric point, and can give out hydrogen ions.

    15. Properties of bases Bases release a hydroxide ion into water solution Bases neutralize acids in a neutralization reaction. HCl + NaOH NaCl + H2O Bases denature protein. Bases turn red litmus to blue. Bases taste bitter.

    16. Some Properties of Bases Produce OH- ions in water Taste bitter, chalky Are electrolytes Feel soapy, slippery React with acids to form salts and water pH greater than 7 Turns red litmus paper to blue Basic Blue

    17. pH pH is a way to express acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution. It is the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration. It is a measure of the concentration of protons in solution [H3O+] pH = - log 10 [H+] or pH = - log 10 [H3O+] pH Scale:

    18. The pH scale is a way of expressing the strength of acids and bases. Instead of using very small numbers, we just use the NEGATIVE power of 10 on the Molarity of the H+ (or OH-) ion. Under 7 = acid 7 = neutral Over 7 = base

    19. Calculating the pH pH = - log [H+] (Remember that the [ ] mean Molarity) Example: If [H+] = 1 X 10-10 pH = - log 1 X 10-10 pH = - (- 10) pH = 10 Example: If [H+] = 1.8 X 10-5 pH = - log 1.8 X 10-5 pH = - (- 4.74) pH = 4.74

    20. Dissociation of Water Dissociation of water H2O H+ + OH- Water Proton + Hydroxyl ion H+ + H2O H3O+ Proton + Water Hydronium ion In water there is a strong partial negative charge on the side of the oxygen atom and partial positive charge on the hydrogen side H H O Each hydrogen ion unites with a water molecule to produce a hydronium ion, H3O+

    21. H2O can function as both an ACID and a BASE. In pure water there can be AUTOIONIZATION

    22. Kw = [H3O+] [OH-] = 1.00 x 10-14 at 25 oC In a neutral solution [H3O+] = [OH-] so Kw = [H3O+]2 = [OH-]2 and so [H3O+] = [OH-] = 1.00 x 10-7 M

    23. THE pH SCALE Ion Product of Water Pure H2O at 25C Some molecules ionise H2O ? H+ + OH- [H+ ] = 1 x 10-7 M = [OH- ]

    24. ? Ion Product of H2O: [H+ ] x [OH- ] = [1 x 10-7 ] x [1 x 10-7 ] * Add exponents = 1 x 10-14

    25. Acidic solution [H+ ] > [OH- ] Neutral solution [H+ ] = [OH- ] Basic solution [H+ ] < [OH- ]

    26. pH describes [H+ ] & [OH- ] Indicates if a fluid is : 0 Acidic [H+ ] = 100 [OH- ] =10-14 7 Neutral [H+ ] = 10-7 [OH- ] =10-7 14 Basic [H+ ] = 10-14 [OH- ] = 100

    28. e.g At Neutral pH, H3O is 10-7 M pH = -log [H3O+] pH = -log [10-7] = -[-7] = +7 pH is a log scale and one number represents a H3O+ concentration that is either 10 times greater or ten times smaller in magnitude then the next. e.g. 10-2 M is ten times greater than 10-3 .

    29. Strong acids and strong bases Strong acids that are almost one hundred percent ionized in aqueous solution . HCl H+ + Cl- eg: HNO3 - nitric acid HCl - hydrochloric acid H2SO4 - sulfuric acid HClO4 - perchloric acid Strong bases are almost one hundred percent ionized in aqueous solution. NaOH Na+ + OH- eg: LiOH - lithium hydroxide NaOH - sodium hydroxide KOH - potassium hydroxide Mg(OH)2 - magnesium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 - calcium hydroxide

    30. Strong acids are: Strong electrolytes ~ 100% ionisation ? good conductors Severe burns to body tissue *** Stomach lining protected against HCl by mucus

    31. Dissociation in Water : Strong acids Polar covalent molecules ? ions Eg. HCl(l) H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) HNO3(l) H+ (aq) + NO3- (aq) H2SO4(l) 2H+ (aq) + SO42- (aq)

    32. Strong bases are: Strong electrolytes ~ 100% dissociation in water ? good conductors Severe damage to skin & eyes (Group 1A elements)

    33. Weak Acids and Weak Bases Weak acids and weak bases dissociate partially in aqueous solution HA H+ + A- CH3COOH CH3COO- + H+ BOH B+ + OH- NH3 + H+ NH4+

    34. Weak Acids (most acids in nature) CH3COOH Acetic Acid ~ Vaginal jellies, antimicrobial solution ? ears, plastics, dyes, insecticides H2CO3 Carbonic Acid ~Bicarbonate buffer system, carbonated drinks H3PO4 Phosphoric Acid ~ Drugs, fertilisers, soaps, detergents, animal feed

    35. Weak acids are: Weak electrolytes Small % ionisation ? weak conductors Dissociation in Water : Weak acids Polar covalent molecules ? Mainly stay as molecules

    37. Weak bases are: Weak electrolytes Do not contain OH but react with H2O ? small numbers of OH Reaction with Water : Weak bases NH3(g) + H2O NH4 + (aq) + OH (aq) HCO3 (aq) + H2O H2CO3 (aq) + OH-(aq)
