Acid/Base definitions

• Definition #1: Arrhenius (traditional)

Acids – produce H+ ions (or hydronium ions H3O+)

Bases – produce OH- ions

(problem: some bases don’t have hydroxide ions!)

1414Arrhenius acid is a substance that produces H+ (H3O+) in water

Arrhenius base is a substance that produces OH- in water

1515

Acid/Base Definitions

• Definition #2: Brønsted – Lowry

Acids – proton donor

Bases – proton acceptor

A “proton” is really just a hydrogen atom that has lost it’s electron!

2323The pH scale is a way of expressing the strength of acids and bases. Instead of using very small numbers, we just use the NEGATIVE power of 10 on the Molarity of the H+ (or OH-) ion.

Under 7 = acid 7 = neutral

Over 7 = base

2424

pH of Common pH of Common SubstancesSubstances

2525Calculating the pH

pH = - log [H+](Remember that the [ ] mean Molarity)

Example: If [H+] = 1 X 10-10

pH = - log 1 X 10-10

pH = - (- 10)

pH = 10

Example: If [H+] = 1.8 X 10-5

pH = - log 1.8 X 10-5

pH = - (- 4.74)

pH = 4.74

2626

Try These!

Find the pH of these:

1) A 0.15 M solution of Hydrochloric acid

2) A 3.00 X 10-7 M solution of Nitric acid

If the pH of Coke is 3.12, [HIf the pH of Coke is 3.12, [H++] = ???] = ???

Because pH = - log [HBecause pH = - log [H++] then] then

- pH = log [H- pH = log [H++]]

Take antilog (10Take antilog (10xx) of both) of both sides and get sides and get

1010-pH -pH == [H[H++]][H[H++] = 10] = 10-3.12-3.12 = 7.6 x 10 = 7.6 x 10-4-4 M M *** to find antilog on your calculator, look for “Shift” or “2*** to find antilog on your calculator, look for “Shift” or “2nd nd

2828pH calculations – Solving for pH calculations – Solving for H+H+

• A solution has a pH of 8.5. What is the Molarity of hydrogen ions in the solution?

pH = - log [H+]

8.5 = - log [H+]

-8.5 = log [H+]

Antilog -8.5 = antilog (log [H+])

10-8.5 = [H+]

3.16 X 10-9 = [H+]

pH = - log [H+]

8.5 = - log [H+]

-8.5 = log [H+]

Antilog -8.5 = antilog (log [H+])

10-8.5 = [H+]

3.16 X 10-9 = [H+]

• Since acids and bases are opposites, pH and pOH are opposites!

• pOH does not really exist, but it is useful for changing bases to pH.

• pOH looks at the perspective of a base

pOH = - log [OH-]Since pH and pOH are on opposite

3636pH testing

• There are several ways to test pH

–Blue litmus paper (red = acid)

–Red litmus paper (blue = basic)

–pH paper (multi-colored)

–pH meter (7 is neutral, <7 acid, >7 base)

–Universal indicator (multi-colored)

– Indicators like phenolphthalein

–Natural indicators like red cabbage, radishes

3737Paper testing

• Paper tests like litmus paper and pH paper

– Put a stirring rod into the solution and stir.

– Take the stirring rod out, and place a drop of the solution from the end of the stirring rod onto a piece of the paper

– Read and record the color change. Note what the color indicates.

– You should only use a small portion of the paper. You can use one piece of paper for several tests.

pH meter

• Tests the voltage of the electrolyte

• Converts the voltage to pH

• Very cheap, accurate

• Must be calibrated with a buffer solution

4040pH indicators

• Indicators are dyes that can be added that will change color in the presence of an acid or base.

• Some indicators only work in a specific range of pH

• Once the drops are added, the sample is ruined

• Some dyes are natural, like radish skin or red cabbage

Titration

• Is the controlled addition and measurement of the amount of a solution of known concentration that is required to react completely with a measured amount of a solution of unknown concentration.

In a titration this is called the titrant.

Analyte – another name for the solution of unknown concentration.

Equivalence Point or End Point

• The point in the titration where equivalent (equal) amount of OH- and H3O+ are present.

• How do we know when the endpoint or equivalence point have been reached?

• pH meter shows rapid changes in pH or indicator changes color (more on this)
