Acids
A compound that contains one or more hydrogen atoms and produces hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water
Acids consist of an anion and as many H+ as are necessary to make the atom electrically neutral.

Arrhenius Acids and BasesArrhenius Acids and Bases
In water, an Arrhenius acid produces HIn water, an Arrhenius acid produces H33OO++, , and an Arrhenius base produces OHand an Arrhenius base produces OH--
Arrhenius’ theory showed why acids and bases:Arrhenius’ theory showed why acids and bases:1.1. have similar propertieshave similar properties2.2. neutralize each otherneutralize each other3.3. produce water and salt when they combineproduce water and salt when they combine
Arrhenius’ theory could not show:Arrhenius’ theory could not show:1.1. Why compounds without OH- could act as basesWhy compounds without OH- could act as bases2.2. Why reactions were not limited to occurring in Why reactions were not limited to occurring in

Naming and Writing Formulas
Naming Acids
1) When the anion’s name ends in -ide, the acid’s name begins with hydro- and the stem of the anion’s name ends in -ic, followed by the word acid.
Example:
Hydrochloric Acid HCl
Anion: Chloride Cl-
Naming and Writing Formulas
Naming Acids
2) When the anion’s name ends in -ite, the acid’s name is the stem of the anion with the suffix -ous, followed by the word acid.
Example: Sulfurous Acid H2SO3
Anion: Sulfite SO32-

3) When the anion’s name ends in -ate, the acid’s name is the stem of the anion with the suffix -ic, followed by the word acid.
Example: Nitric Acid HNO3
Anion: Nitrate NO3-
Naming and Writing FormulasWriting Formulas for Acids
Use the rules for naming acids in reverse to write formulas for acids.
Find the anion in the acid. Then, match its charge with the appropriate number of H+ ions to make the formula electrically neutral.
Naming BasesNaming Bases
Name the metal (cation) by its Name the metal (cation) by its elemental nameelemental name
Name the simple nonmetal (anion) Name the simple nonmetal (anion) with the with the ideide ending ending
Name the polyatomic ion as is Name the polyatomic ion as is (example OH(example OH-- is hydroxide) is hydroxide)
An ionic compound that produces hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water.
These are named in the same way as other ionic compounds: cation first and anion second.
Common Bases
NaOH Sodium Hydroxide
Ba(OH)2 Barium Hydroxide
Ca(OH)2 Calcium Hydroxide

concentration
In aqueous solution, a strong acid donates nearly all of its protons to water, whereas a weak acid donates only a small percentage of protons to water.
Most hydroxides of Groups 1A and 2A are strong gases, which dissociate nearly completely in water
Adding water equalizes the strength of all strong acids/bases = levelling effect
