AcidTRANSCRIPT
Properties of acids and basesProperties of acids and bases• Get 8 test tubes. Rinse all tubes well with water.
Add acid to four tubes, base to the other four.• Touch a drop of base to your finger. Record the
feel in the chart (on the next slide). Wash your hands with water. Repeat for acid.
• Use a stirring rod, add base to the litmus and pH papers (for pH paper use a colour key to find a number). Record results. Repeat for acid.
• Into the four base tubes add: a) two drops of phenolphthalein, b) 2 drops of bromothymol, c) a piece of Mg, d) a small scoop of baking soda. Record results. Repeat for acid.
• Clean up (wash tubes, pH/litmus paper in trash).

pHpH• There are many ways to consider acids and
bases. One of these is pH. Read pg. 368-70.• [H+] is critical in many chemical reactions.• A quick method of denoting [H+] is via pH.• By definition pH = – log [H+], [H+] = 10-pH
• The pH scale, similar to the Richter scale, describes a wide range of values
• An earthquake of “6” is 10 as violent as a “5”• Thus, the pH scale condenses possible
values of [H+] to a 14 point scale (fig. 2, p370)• Also, it is easier to say pH = 7 vs. [H+] = 1 x 10–7

Q: What is the pH if [H+]= 6.3 x 10–5? pH = – log [H+]
(‘6.3’, ‘exp’ or ‘EE’, ‘5’, ‘+/-’, ‘log’, ‘+/-’)(‘-’, ‘log’, ‘6.3’, ‘exp’ or ‘EE’, ‘-’, ‘5’)
Q: What is the [H+] if pH = 7.4?[H+] = 10–pH mol/L
(’10’, ‘xy’, ‘7.4’, ‘+/-’, ‘=‘)(’10’, ‘^’, ‘-’, ‘7.4’, ‘=‘)
Pg. 375Pg. 3752 a) pH = – log [H+] = – log [1x10–8] = 8.0 b) pH = – log [H+] = – log [1x10–7] = 7.0 c) pH = – log [H+] = – log [2.5x10–6] = 5.60 d) pH = – log [H+] = – log [1.3x10–4] = 3.89
6 a) [H+] = 10–pH = 10–5.4 = 4 x 10–6 mol/L b) [H+] = 10–pH = 10–5.72 = 1.9 x 10–6 mol/L
Historical views on acidsHistorical views on acids
• The more recent Bronsted-Lowry concept is that acids are H+ (proton) donors and bases are proton acceptors
Ionization

HH O Cl+
• O (e.g. H2SO4) was originally thought to cause acidic properties. Later, H was implicated, but it was still not clear why CH4 was neutral.
• Arrhenius made the revolutionary suggestion that some solutions contain ions & that acids produce H3O+ (hydronium) ions in solution.
The Bronsted-Lowry conceptThe Bronsted-Lowry concept• In this idea, the ionization of an acid by water
is just one example of an acid-base reaction.
• Acids and bases are identified based on whether they donate or accept H+.
• “Conjugate” acids and bases are found on the products side of the equation. A conjugate base is the same as the starting acid minus H+.
