19.1 – Acid-Base Theories
Acids
Taste sour
Dissolve active metals to produce hydrogen gas
Turns litmus paper RED
Bases
Taste bitter
Feels slippery on skin (dissolves oils on skin)
Turns litmus paper BLUE
Have you seen the litmus paper yet??
These are experimental definitions, they do not explain
(theory) how an acid is different from a base.
Arrhenius defined an acid
and base theoretically.
Svante Arrhenius
(1857 – 1927)
First, a vocab word…
Dissociate to split or separate from another
Arrhenius Definition (~1887)
ACID – substance that dissociates in water
to form hydrogen ions (H+).
HCl (aq)  H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
BASE – substance that dissociates in water
to form hydroxide ions (OH-).
NaOH (aq)  Na+ (aq) + OH- (aq)
When an acid is placed in water, H+ ions are
produced.
Hydrogen ions can also be thought of as H3O+ ions.
H3O+ = hydronium ion
HCl (aq)  H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
or equivalently,
HCl
+
H 2O  H 3O +
+
Cl-
Brønsted-Lowry Definition (~1923)
ACID – donates H+
BASE – accepts H+
Johannes Bronstad
(1879 – 1947)
Thomas Lowry
(1874 – 1936)
B-L definition covers more examples than
the Arrhenius definition.
ammonia
ammonium ion
water donates a H+ and so is a B-L acid
ammonia accepts a H+ and so is a B-L base
Conjugate Acid – formed when a base
accepts a H+
Conjugate Base – formed when an acid
donates a H+
EXAMPLES…
ACIDS donate H+,
BASES accept H+

Amphoteric – substance that can be an acid or a
base – depending on what it reacts with.
Water is amphoteric
ACIDS donate H+, BASES accept H+
label each reactant as an acid and base,
label the products as conjugate acids or conjugate bases.

CH3COOH + H2O  H3O+ + CH3COONH3 + H2O  NH4+ + OHH2O + CH3COO-  CH3COOH + OH-

Chapter 19 Worksheet #1 (FRONT)
19.2 – Hydrogen Ions and Acidity
Molarity (M) – unit used to express the concentration of a
solution
mol solute (mol)
Molarity =
liters of soln (L)
anything in [brackets] means the concentration in molarity
[H+] = ‘the hydrogen ion concentration’
[OH-] = ‘the hydroxide ion concentration’
Self-Ionization of Water
Water ionizes to produce a small amount of H+ and
OH- ions.
H2O
 H+ +
OH-
In pure water at 25̊C
[H+] = [OH-] = 1 x 10-7 M
Ion-product constant for water (Kw)
Kw = [H+][OH-] = 1.0 x 10-14
remember…anything in [brackets] represents the concentration
in molarity
A solution is acidic if [H+] > 1.0 x 10-7 M
…or if the pH of the solution is below 7
Just as the mole was used to simplify large numbers of atoms,
pH is used to simplify small concentration numbers
pH = ‘power of the hydrogen ion’
pH = -log[H+]
Instead of writing out numbers like these…
[H+] = 1 x 10-7 M
[H+] = 2.4 x 10-4 M
pH = 7.00
[H+] = 7.3 x 10-10 M
pH = 9.14
pH = 3.62
we can write number like these
Instead of saying “This solution has a hydronium
ion concentration of 2.4 x 10-4 M”.
We can just say “This solution has a pH of 3.62”.
Not only is pH an easier number to talk about, pH
is understood by most people, whereas molarity is
not.
The pH scale is used to describe how acidic or
basic (alkaline) a substance is.
Examples
Pure water has [H+] = 1.00 x 10-7 M
The pH of water would be
pH = -log[H+]
pH = - log [1.00 x 10-7]
pH = 7
Examples
[H+] = 2.3 x 10-5 M. Calculate the pH.
pH = - log [H+]
pH = - log [2.3 x 10-5]
pH = 4.64
Examples
[H+] = 1.0 x 10-5 M. Calculate the pH.
pH = - log [H+]
pH = - log [1.0 x 10-5]
pH = 5.0
Examples
pH = 4.2. Calculate [H+]
pH = - log [H+]
-4.2 = log [H+]
10-4.2 = 10log [H+]
10-4.2 = 6.31 x 10-5 M = [H+]

19.3 – Strengths of Acids and Bases
Strong acids & bases completely dissociate (split
into ions) in water;
Weak acids & bases partly dissociate and only form
a small amount of ions.
HCl is a strong acid,
HCl (aq)  H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
it completely ionizes

Chemical Equilibrium – occurs when forward
rxn rate equals reverse rxn rate; dynamic
CH3COOH + H2O
CH3COO-
+ H3O+
Le Chatelier’s Principle – at equilibrium, a rxn
will shift forward or backward in response to any
change in conditions (temp, pressure,
concentration)
Increase [CH3COOH], rxn shifts the rxn to the right.
Increase [CH3COO-], rxn hifts rxn to the left.
Le Chatelier’s Principle Example 1
CH3COOH + H2O
CH3COO-
+ H3O+
1. Add methyl orange to acetic acid; divide into 3’s
red pH 4.0, orange pH 5.0, yellow pH 6.0
2. Add Na+CH3COO- to acetic acid
Doing this, increases [CH3COO-] and causes a shift in
the rxn to the left; increasing the pH.
3. Add NaOH to the acetic acid
Doing this, decreases [H3O+] causing a shift in the rxn
to the left; increasing the pH.

What will happen when drops of HCl (aq)
are added to a saturated solution of NaCl?
HCl (aq)


the rxn will shift to the left because the
[Cl-] concentration increased.
Le Chatelier’s Principle Example 3
Co(H2O)6+2 (aq) + 4Cl- (aq) + heat  CoCl4-2 (aq) + 6H2O
1. Add ~ 3 mL of conc. HCl to about 2 mL of 0.1 M CoCl2
2. Add water to reverse the rxn
3. Add ~ 2 mL of 0.1M AgNO3(aq).

Buffer – solution that maintains a fairly
stable pH when small amounts of acid or
base are added.
Buffer solutions consist of a
weak acid and its conjugate base
or
a weak base and its conjugate acid.

Universal pH Indicator Color Chart
Blood is buffered at pH b/w 7.35 - 7.45.
This is done mainly by the carbonic acid/bicarbonate buffer.
Carbonic acid (H2CO3) neutralizes added bases.
Bicarbonate ion (HCO3-) neutralizes added acids.
H2CO3 (aq)  H2O + CO2
Hold your breath, CO2 level builds up in blood,
causing [H2CO3] ↑, pH ↓
Hyperventilate, CO2 level drops in blood,
causing [H2CO3] ↓, pH ↑

Answer Questions #35-43
EXAMPLE
10.0 mL of 0.5 M HCl solution is added to 20.0
mL of NaOH of unknown concentration. What
is the concentration of the NaOH?
HCl
+ NaOH 
0.5 M
10.0 mL
xM
20.0 mL
NaCl + H2O
Since the reaction of HCl and NaOH is 1:1 and
twice the volume of NaOH was used, the NaOH
must half as strong as HCl; [0.25 M].
EXAMPLE
What volume of 0.10 M KOH is required to
neutralize 20.0 mL of 0.20 M H2SO4 solution?
H2SO4 + 2KOH 
0.20 M
0.10 M
20.0 mL
x mL
K2SO4 + 2H2O
Since KOH requires twice as many moles as H2SO4,
you should double your answer.
