Study Notes

Acid-Base Titration

  • Titration is a process used to determine the concentration of an unknown solution using a solution of known concentration (titrant).
  • The titrant is added from a burette to a titrand (the unknown solution) in a conical flask until the reaction is complete (end point).
  • Titrant: Solution with a known concentration, placed in a burette.
  • Titrand: Solution with an unknown concentration, placed in a conical flask.
  • Indicator: A substance added to the titrand to identify the endpoint of the reaction by changing colour.
  • Equivalence point: Point where moles of titrand are equal to moles of titrant.
  • End point: Point at which the indicator changes colour, signifying the completion of the reaction.

Acid-Base Theories

  • Arrhenius Theory: Acids produce H+ ions, and bases produce OH- ions in water.
  • Bronsted-Lowry Theory: Acids are proton donors, and bases are proton acceptors.
  • Lewis Theory: Acids accept electron pairs, and bases donate electron pairs.

Acid-Base Indicators

  • Indicators are substances used to determine the endpoint in titrations.
  • They change colour depending on the pH of the solution.
  • Indicators are weak acids or bases, changing colour when ionized or unionized.
  • Ostwald's theory explains how indicators change colour based on their ionization state.
  • Quinonoid Theory explains indicators changing colour because of different tautameric forms.

Acid-Base Classification

  • Strong acids completely dissociate in solution.
  • Weak acids partially dissociate.
  • Strong bases completely dissociate.
  • Weak bases partially dissociate.

Neutralization Curve

  • Neutralization curves show how the pH of a solution changes as a titrant is added.
  • These curves are plotted with pH on the y-axis and volume of titrant on the x-axis.
  • Curves show characteristic shapes, and the equivalence point is indicated by a sharp change in pH.
  • Various types of curves exist relating different acid/base combinations.
