Arrhenius Model• Arrhenius Model Acids and Bases

– Proposed by Svante Arrhenius in late 1800s

– An acid in aqueous solution produces hydrogen ions, H+

HCl(g) H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

– A base in aqueous solution produces

hydroxide ions, OH-

NaOH(s) Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)

– Also explains neutralization of acids and bases; when H+ reacts with OH-, water is formed

H+(aq) + OH- (aq) H2O(l) 13-

Hydronium Ion

• A fundamental problem with the Arrhenius model is the treatment of the behavior of the hydrogen ion, H+

• Hydrogen ions are better represented as hydronium ions, H3O

+, in solution13-

Bronsted-Lowry Theory

• An acid is any substance that can

donate an H+ ion to another

substance

• A base is any substance that can

accept an H+ ion from another

substance

• Inclusive of all Arrhenius acids and

bases

Practice – Bronsted-Lowry Acids

and Bases

• For each reaction, identify the

Bronstead-Lowry acid and base

reactants.

1. OCl-(aq) + H2O(l) HOCl(aq) + OH-(aq)

2. H2SO4(aq) + F-(aq) HSO4-(aq) +

Practice Solutions – Bronsted-

Lowry Acids and Bases

• For each reaction, identify the

Bronstead-Lowry acid and base

reactants.

1. OCl-(aq) + H2O(l) HOCl(aq) + OH-(aq)

The water (H2O) donates an H+ to the OCl- to form HOCl. The water is an acid. The OCl-

accepts a H+ from the water (H2O), therefore it

is the base.

Practice Solutions – Bronsted-

Lowry Acids and Bases2. H2SO4(aq) + F-(aq) HSO4

-(aq) + HF(aq)

H2SO4, sulfuric acid, is the acid and it

donates an H+ to the F-. F- accepts H+

from the sulfuric acid and is therefore the

base.

3. NH4+(aq) + H2O(l) NH3(aq) + H3O

+(aq)

NH4+ donates an H+ to the water and

thus is the acid. H2O accepts the H+

and is the base.

Conjugate Acid-Base Pairs• When an acid donates an H+ to a base, the two

products differ from the reactants by one H+

ion.

• Conjugate acid– The product that forms as a result of gaining an H+

ion

• Conjugate base– The product that forms as a result of losing an H+ ion

Practice – Strong vs. Weak Acids and Bases

• Identify each of the following as a

strong acid, weak acid, strong base,

or weak base. Write an equation to

describe its reaction in water.

1. HI(aq)

2. NaCH3CO2(aq)

3. NH4+(aq)

4. NH3(aq)

13-

24

Practice Solutions – Strong vs. Weak Acids and Bases

1. HI(aq)

Hydroiodic acid is a strong acid (it is on the list of strong acids in Table 13.1). Therefore, it completely dissociates in water.

HI(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + I-(aq)

2. NaCH3CO2(aq)Sodium acetate is an ionic compound that partially dissociates in water to form Na+(aq) and CH3CO2

-(aq). The CH3CO2- ion is the

conjugate base of the weak acid, HC2H3O2, so it is a weak base and does not completely dissociate in water:

CH3CO2-(aq) + H2O(l) CH3CO2H(aq) + OH-(aq)

Practice Solutions – Strong vs.

Weak Acids and Bases 3. NH4

+(aq)

Ammonium ion is the conjugate acid of the weak base, ammonia (NH3), so ammonium is therefore a weak acid. It does not completely dissociate in water.

NH4+(aq) + H2O(l) NH3(aq) + H3O

+(aq)4. NH3(aq)

Ammonia is a weak base, shown in Table 13.4, and does not dissociate completely in water.

NH3(aq) + H2O(l) NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq)

Practice – Acids and Bases on the Molecular Level

• One of the diagrams below represents

HClO4, and the other represents an aqueous solution of HSO4

-. Which is

which? Explain your reasoning.

13-

27

Practice Solutions – Acids and Bases on the Microscopic Level

• The picture on the left (A) shows no acid molecules and therefore shows an acid that has completely dissociated.

• Diagram A would then be a strong acid and of the two choices, perchloric acid (HClO4) is the strong one.

• Diagram B (the picture on the right) shows acid molecules that have not completely dissociated and are therefore the weak acid, HSO4

-.

28

Relative Strengths of Weak Acids

• Acid strength depends on the relative number

of acid molecules that ionize when dissolved in water – the degree of ionization.

• Remember that Keq describes the relative amounts of products over reactants.

• If the value of Keq is larger, then more products exist at equilibrium and the acid has a larger percentage of molecules which have been

ionized.

13-

29

Acid Ionization Constants

• The acid ionization constant, Ka, describes the equilibrium that forms when an acid reacts with water.

• The larger the Ka value, the stronger the acid.

• When using Ka values to determine the strengths of conjugate acids and cases, use this rule of thumb:– The stronger the acid, the weaker the

conjugate base.13-

Practice – Significance of Ka

• Which solution has the greater concentration of H3O

+, 0.10 M HOCl [Ka = 4.0 x 10-8] or 0.10 M HCN

[Ka = 6.2 x 10-10]?

13-

32

Practice Solutions – Significance of Ka

• Which solution has the greater concentration of H3O

+, 0.10 M HOCl or

0.10 M HCN?

Because we have equal concentrations of each acid, we first need to determine

which acid is stronger.

The stronger acid will dissociate more completely in water, thus producing more

H3O+ ion.

13-

33

Practice Solutions – Significance of Ka

• Which solution has the greater concentration of

H3O+, 0.10 M HOCl or 0.10 M HCN?

Looking at the Ka’s of the two acids from Table 13.5:

HOCl Ka = 4.0 x 10-8

HCN Ka = 6.2 x 10-10

Since HOCl has the larger Ka, it is the stronger acid and will therefore have a greater

concentration of H3O+ ion.

Polyprotic Acids• An acid that contains more

than one acidic hydrogen and can thus donate more than one H+ ion

• The acid donates one H+ ion at a time in steps

• The Ka values for polyprotic acids are often labeled to indicate the particular step in the overall ionization process (Ka1, Ka2, Ka3, etc.)

Practice – Polyprotic Acids in Water

• Oxalic acid, H2C2O4, occurs in plants and foods such as parsley, rhubarb, almonds, and green beans. Its Ka

values are listed in Table 13.6.a) Write equations that show the

ionization of oxalic acid in water.

b) Besides water, which ion or molecule has the highest concentration in solution when oxalic acid is added to water?

b) Besides water, which ion or molecule has the highest concentration in solution when oxalic acid is added to water?

The Ka1 value for H2C2O4 shows that it is a weak acid and ionizes only to a small extent. That means that most of the H2C2O4 and is present in water in the highest concentration.

13-

38

Acidic, Basic, and Neutral Solutions

• Acidic solution– The H3O

+ ion concentration is greater than the OH- ion concentration.

• Basic solution– The OH- ion concentration is greater

than the H3O+ ion concentration.

• Neutral solution– Equal concentrations of OH- and H3O

+

– Neither acidic nor basic

13-

39

Ion-Product Constant of Water

• Water reacts with itself in a process called self-ionization, in which an H+ ion is transferred from one water molecule to another:

H2O(l) + H2O(l) OH-(aq) + H3O+(aq)

• The equilibrium constant for this process, called the ion-product constant of water, Kw, is:Kw = [OH-][H3O

+] = 1.0 x 10-14 (at 25°C)

and in pure water, the concentrations would be equal, so:

[OH-] = [H3O+] = 1.0 x 10-7

The pH Scale

• The pH of a solution is the negative logarithm

(base 10) of the H3O+

concentration:

pH = - log [H3O+]

• It is convenient to

express the acidity of aqueous solutions on a

pH scale (shown at right).

Practice Solutions – Calculating pH

• What is the pH of each of the following solutions? Once you’ve done the calculation, check your answer to make sure it makes sense.

a) 0.00085 M HCl

First, we need to find the [H3O+]:

[H3O+] = 0.00085 M

Next, calculate the pH:

pH = - log [H3O+] = - log (0.00085) = 3.1

Kw = [OH- ][H3O+]

[OH-] = 0.010 M

[H3O+] = Kw = 1.0 x 10-14 = 1.0 x 10-12 M

47

Calculating pOH

• pOH is defined as the negative

logarithm (base 10) of hydroxide ion

concentration, [OH-]:

pOH = - log [OH-]

The relationship between pH and

pOH is:

pH + pOH = 14

13-

48

Calculating Concentrations from pH and pOH

• The equation to find pH is:

pH = - log [H3O+]

• To find the H3O+ ion concentration, we need to

take the inverse log of the negative pH:

[H3O+] = 10-pH

• The equation to find pOH is:

pOH = - log [OH-]

• To find the OH- ion concentration, we need to take the inverse log of the negative pOH:

[OH-] = 10-pOH

If the pH falls below 4.5, then the lake is dead.[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-9 M

Kw = [H3O+][OH-]

[H3O+] = Kw = 1.0 x 10-14 = 1.0 x 10-5 M

[OH-] 1.0 x 10-9

pH = - log [H3O+] = - log (1.0 x 10-5) = 5

Since the pH of the lake is 5, then the lake is NOT dead.
