Study Notes
Acids and Bases: A Comprehensive Overview
- This presentation covers acids and bases, fundamental concepts in chemistry.
- Different definitions, properties, and applications of these compounds will be explored.
The Arrhenius Theory of Acids and Bases
-
Arrhenius Definition:
- Acids release hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.
- Bases release hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water.
-
Examples:
- Hydrochloric acid (HCl) releases H+ ions in water.
- Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) releases OH- ions in water.
The Brønsted-Lowry Definition of Acids and Bases
-
Proton Transfer:
- Acids are proton donors (H+).
- Bases are proton acceptors (H+).
-
Examples:
- HCl donates a proton to water, forming H3O+ and Cl-.
- Ammonia (NH3) accepts a proton from water, forming NH4+ and OH-.
Conjugate Acids and Bases
-
Conjugate Acid-Base Pairs:
- An acid and its conjugate base differ by a single proton.
- A base and its conjugate acid differ by a single proton.
-
Examples:
- HCl (acid) and Cl- (conjugate base) differ by a proton.
- NH3 (base) and NH4+ (conjugate acid) differ by a proton.
Strong and Weak Acids and Bases
-
Strong Acids:
- Ionize completely.
