Study Notes

Acid-Base Reactions

  • When an acid reacts with a base, a salt and water are always formed.
  • Hydrochloric acid reacts with water to produce hydrogen ions (H+) and chloride ions (Cl-).

Acid Classification

  • Acid molecules are classified as Arrhenius acids when not dissolved in water.
  • An acid is defined as a substance that donates a hydrogen ion (H+) in a reaction.

Hydrogen Ions

  • Hydrogen ions (H+) in aqueous acids are highly reactive and will readily donate a proton.
  • In a reaction where an acid donates its H+ ions, the acid is commonly referred to as a proton donor.

Acid-Base Properties

  • Acids and bases are described in terms of their ability to donate or accept protons (H+ ions).
  • Acids are characterized by their ability to donate H+ ions, while bases are characterized by their ability to accept H+ ions.

Acid Behavior

  • When acid molecules are added to water, they dissociate into hydrogen ions (H+) and negatively charged ions.
  • An acid can be defined as a substance that releases H+ ions in aqueous solutions.
  • A hydrogen ion (H+) in aqueous acids is a positively charged ion formed when an acid donates a proton.

Acid-Base Reaction Products

  • The reaction between an acid and a base always forms a salt and water.
