Acid-Base Concepts
• Antoine Lavoisier was
one of the first
chemists to try to
explain what makes a
substance acidic.
– In 1777, he proposed that oxygen was an
essential element in acids.
– The actual cause of acidity and basicity was
ultimately explained in terms of the effect these
compounds have on water by Svante Arrhenius
in 1884.
12

Acid-Base Concepts
• In the first part of this chapter we will look at
several concepts of acid-base theory including:
– The Arrhenius concept
– The Bronsted Lowry concept
– The Lewis concept
This chapter expands on what you learned in
Chapter 3 about acids and bases.
13
13
Arrhenius Concept of Acids and Bases
• According to the Arrhenius concept of acids and
bases, an acid is a substance that, when
dissolved in water, increases the concentration
of hydronium ion (H3O+).
– Chemists often use the notation H+(aq) for the
H3O+(aq) ion, and call it the hydrogen ion.
– Remember, however, that the aqueous hydrogen
ion is actually chemically bonded to water, that is,
H3O+.
14
14
• The Arrhenius concept limits bases to
compounds that contain a hydroxide ion.
• The Brønsted–Lowry concept expands the
compounds that can be considered acids and
bases.
15
15
Arrhenius Concept of Acids and Bases
• According to the Arrhenius concept of acids and
bases, an acid is a substance that, when
dissolved in water, increases the concentration
of hydronium ion (H3O+).
The H3O+ is
shown here
hydrogen
bonded to three
water molecules.
16
16
Arrhenius Concept of Acids and Bases
• A base, in the Arrhenius concept, is a substance
that, when dissolved in water, increases the
concentration of hydroxide ion, OH-(aq).
17
17
Arrhenius Concept of Acids and Bases
• In the Arrhenius concept, a strong acid is a
substance that ionizes completely in aqueous
solution to give H3O+(aq) and an anion
– An example is perchloric acid, HClO4.
+
−
HClO4 (aq) + H 2O(l ) → H 3O (aq) + ClO4 (aq )
– Other strong acids include HCl, HBr, HI, HNO3 ,
and H2SO4.
18
18
Arrhenius Concept of Acids and Bases
• In the Arrhenius concept, a strong base is a
substance that ionizes completely in aqueous
solution to give OH-(aq) and a cation.
– An example is sodium hydroxide, NaOH.
+
−
NaOH(s ) HO→ Na (aq) + OH (aq)
2
– Other strong bases include LiOH, KOH,
Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, and Ba(OH)2.
19
19
Arrhenius Concept of Acids and Bases
• Most other acids and bases that you encounter are
weak. They are not completely ionized and exist
in reversible reaction with the corresponding ions.
– An example is acetic acid, HC2H3O2.
HC2 H 3O 2 (aq ) + H 2O(l )
−
+
H 3O (aq) + C2 H 3O 2 (aq)
– Ammonium hydroxide, NH4OH, is a weak base.
NH 4OH(aq)
+
−
NH 4 (aq) + OH (aq)

Brønsted-Lowry Concept of Acids and Bases
• According to the Brønsted-Lowry concept, an
acid is the species donating the proton in a
proton-transfer reaction.
• A base is the species accepting the proton
in a proton-transfer reaction.
– In any reversible acid-base reaction, both forward
and reverse reactions involve proton transfer.
22
22
• Consider the reaction of NH3 and H20.
NH 3 (aq ) + H 2O(l )
base
acid
NH 3 (aq ) + H 2O(l )
+
−
+
−
NH 4 (aq ) + OH (aq )
NH 4 (aq ) + OH (aq )
H+
– In the forward reaction, NH3 accepts a proton
from H2O. Thus, NH3 is a base and H2O is an
acid.
23
23
• Brønsted–Lowry Concept of Acids and
Bases
• An acid–base reaction is considered a proton
(H+) transfer reaction.

NH4 (aq) + OH (aq)
+

+
−
NH 4 (aq ) + OH (aq )
– The species NH4+ and NH3 are a conjugate
acid-base pair.
– A conjugate acid-base pair consists of two
species in an acid-base reaction, one acid and
one base, that differ by the loss or gain of a
25
proton.
25
Brønsted-Lowry Concept of Acids and Bases
• Consider the reaction of NH3 and H2O.
base
NH 3 (aq ) + H 2O(l )
acid
+
−
NH 4 (aq ) + OH (aq )
– Here NH4+ is the conjugate acid of NH3
and NH3 is the conjugate base of NH4+.
– The Brønsted-Lowry concept defines a
species as an acid or a base according
to its function in the proton-transfer
26
reaction.
26
• Substances in the acid–base reaction that differ
by the gain or loss of a proton, H+, are called a
conjugate acid–base pair. The acid is called the
conjugate acid; the base is called a conjugate
base.

• What is the conjugate acid of H2O?
• What is the conjugate base of H2O?
The conjugate acid of H2O has gained a proton.
It is H3O+.

• A Brønsted–Lowry acid is the species
donating a proton in a proton-transfer reaction;
it is a proton donor.
• A Brønsted–Lowry base is the species
accepting a proton in a proton-transfer
reaction; it is a proton acceptor.
30
30
• Some species can act as an acid or a base.
– An amphoteric species is a species that can act
either as an acid or a base (it can gain or lose a
proton).
– For example, HCO3- acts as a proton donor (an acid) in
the presence of OH−
−
−2
HCO 3 (aq ) + OH (aq ) → CO 3 (aq ) + H 2O(l )
–H+
31
31
– An amphoteric species is a species that can act
either as an acid or a base (it can gain or lose a
proton).
– Alternatively, HCO3- can act as a proton acceptor
(a base) in the presence of HF.
−
−
HCO 3 (aq ) + HF(aq ) → H 2CO 3 (aq ) + F (aq )
H+
• The amphoteric characteristic of water is
important in the acid-base properties of
aqueous solutions.
32
32
– Water reacts as an acid with the base NH3.

H+
– Water can also react as a base with the acid HF.
−
+
HF(aq ) + H 2O(l ) → F (aq ) + H 3O (aq )
H+
33
33
• In the Brønsted-Lowry concept:
1. A base is a species that accepts protons; OHis only one example of a base.
2. Acids and bases can be ions as well as molecular
substances.
3. Acid-base reactions are not restricted to aqueous
solution.
4. Some species can act as either acids or bases
depending on what the other reactant is.

Lewis Concept of Acids and Bases
• The Lewis concept defines an acid as an
electron pair acceptor and a base as an
electron pair donor.
– This concept broadened the scope of acidbase theory to include reactions that did not
involve H+.
– The Lewis concept embraces many
reactions that we might not think of as
acid-base reactions.
35

• The reaction of boron trifluoride with
ammonia is an example.

– Boron trifluoride accepts the electron pair, so it is a
Lewis acid. Ammonia donates the electron pair,
so it is the Lewis base.

Name and define the three acid base concepts we have discussed.
Give examples of each type of acid-base.
38
38
Relative Strength of Acids and Bases
• The Brønsted-Lowry concept introduced
the idea of conjugate acid-base pairs
and proton-transfer reactions.
– We consider such acid-base reactions to
be a competition between species for
hydrogen ions.
– From this point of view, we can order
acids by their relative strength as
hydrogen ion donors.
39
39
Relative Strength of Acids and Bases
– The stronger acids are those that lose their
hydrogen ions more easily than other acids.
– Similarly, the stronger bases are those that hold
onto hydrogen ions more strongly than other
bases.
– If an acid loses its H+, the resulting anion is now in
a position to reaccept a proton, making it a
Brønsted-Lowry base.
– It is logical to assume that if an acid is considered
strong, its conjugate base (that is, its anion) would be
weak, since it is unlikely to accept a hydrogen ion.
40
40
Relative Strength of Acids and Bases
• Consider the equilibrium below.

acid
base
−
+
H 3O (aq) + C2 H 3O 2 (aq)
acid
base
conjugate acid-base pairs
– In this system we have two opposing BrønstedLowry acid-base reactions.
– In this example, H3O+ is the stronger of the two
acids. Consequently, the equilibrium is skewed
toward reactants.

– Table 15.2 outlines the relative strength of some

understanding why certain salts can act as acids or
bases.

Molecular Structure and Acid Strength
• Two factors are important in determining
the relative acid strengths.
– One is the polarity of the bond to which the
hydrogen atom is attached.
– The H atom should have a partial positive charge:
δ+
δ−
H−X
– The more polarized the bond, the more easily the
proton is removed and the greater the acid
strength.
46
46
– The second factor is the strength of the bond. Or,
in other words, how tightly the proton is held.
– This depends on the size of atom X.
δ+
δ-
H−X
– The larger atom X, the weaker the bond and the greater
the acid strength.
47
47
• For a binary acid, as the size of X in HX
increases, going down a group, acid strength
increases.
• For a binary acid, going across a period, as the
electronegativity increases, acid strength
increases.
48
48
• Which is a stronger acid: HF or HCl?
• Which is a stronger acid: H2O or H2S?
• Which is a stronger acid: HCl or H2S?
HF and HCl
These are binary acids from the same group, so
we compare the size of F and Cl. Because Cl is
larger, HCl is the stronger acid.
49
49
• H2O and H2S
• These are binary acids from the same group, so
we compare the size of O and S. Because S is
larger, H2S is the stronger acid.
• HCl and H2S
• These are binary acids from the same period,
but different groups, so we compare the
electronegativity of O and S. Because Cl is
more electronegative, HCl is the stronger acid.
50
50
Molecular Structure and Acid Strength
• Consider a series of binary acids from a
given column of elements.
– As you go down the column of elements, the
radius increases markedly and the H-X bond
strength decreases.
– You can predict the following order of acidic strength.
HF < HCl < HBr < HI
51
51
• As you go across a row of elements, the
polarity of the H-X bond becomes the
dominant factor.
H 3 N < H 2O < HF
– As electronegativity increases going to the right,
the polarity of the H-X bond increases and the
acid strength increases.
– You can predict the following order of acidic strength.
H 3 N < H 2O < HF
52
52
• Consider the oxoacids. An oxoacid has
the structure:
H−O−Y−
– The acidic H atom is always attached to an O atom,
which in turn is attached to another atom Y.
– Bond polarity is the dominant factor in the relative
strength of oxoacids.
– This, in turn, depends on the electronegativity of the
atom Y.
53
53
• Consider the oxoacids. An oxoacid has
the structure:
H−O−Y−
– If the electronegativity of Y is large, then the O-H
bond is relatively polar and the acid strength is
greater.
– You can predict the following order of acidic strength.
HOCl > HOBr > HOI
– Other groups, such as O atoms or O-H groups, may
be attached to Y.
– With each additional O atom, Y becomes effectively
54
more electronegative.
54
• For oxoacids, several factors are relevant: the
number and bonding of oxygens, the central
element, and the charge on the species.
• For a series of oxoacids, (OH)mYOn, acid
strength increases as n increases.
(OH)Cl
n=0
Weakest
(OH)ClO
n=1
(OH)ClO2
(OH)ClO3
n=2
n=3
Strongest
55
55
– As a result, the H atom becomes more acidic.
– The acid strengths of the oxoacids of chlorine
increase in the following order.
HClO < HClO 2 < HClO 3 < HClO 4
56
56
• For a series of oxoacids differing only in the
central atom Y, the acid strength increases with
the electronegativity of Y.
Stronger
Weaker
57
57
Molecular Structure and Acid Strength
• Consider polyprotic acids and their
corresponding anions.
– Each successive H atom becomes more difficult to
remove.
– Therefore the acid strength of a polyprotic acid and
its anions decreases with increasing negative charge.
HPO 4
2−
−
< H 2 PO 4 < H 3 PO 4
58
58
• The acid strength of a polyprotic acid and its
anions decreases with increasing negative
charge.
•H2CO3 is a stronger acid than HCO3-.
•H2SO4 is a stronger acid than HSO4-.
•H3PO4 is a stronger acid than H2PO4-.
•H2PO4- is a stronger acid than HPO42-.
• A reaction will always go in the direction
from stronger acid to weaker acid, and from
stronger base to weaker base.
59
59
•Decide which species are favored at the
completion of the following reaction:
•HCN(aq) + HSO3-(aq)
•CN-(aq) + H2SO3(aq)
We first identify the acid on each side of the
reaction: HCN and H2SO3.
Next, we compare their acid strength:
H2SO3 is stronger.
This reaction will go from right to left (), and
the reactants are favored.

Self-ionization
of Water
• Self-ionization is a reaction in which two like
molecules react to give ions.
– In the case of water, the following equilibrium is
established.
+
H 2O ( l ) + H 2O ( l )
−
H 3 O ( aq ) + OH ( aq )
– The equilibrium-constant expression for this system
is:
+
−
[ H 3O ][OH ]
=
Kc
[ H 2O]2
63
63
Self-ionization of Water
• Self-ionization is a reaction in which two like
molecules react to give ions.
– The concentration of ions is extremely
small, so the concentration of H2O remains
essentially constant. This gives:
+
−
[ H 2O]2 K c = [ H 3O ][OH ]
constant
64
64
– We call the equilibrium value for the ion product
[H3O+][OH-] the ion-product constant for water,
which is written Kw.
+
−
K w = [ H 3O ][OH ]
– At 25 oC, the value of Kw is 1.0 x 10-14.
– Like any equilibrium constant, Kw varies with
temperature.
– Because we often write H3O+ as H+, the ionproduct constant expression for water can be
written:
+
−
K w = [ H ][OH ]
65
65
Self-ionization of Water
• These ions are produced in equal numbers in pure
water, so if we let x = [H+] = [OH-]
1.0 × 10
−14
= ( x )( x )
x = 1.0 × 10
−14
at 25 oC
= 1.0 × 10 −7
– Thus, the concentrations of H+ and OH- in pure
water are both 1.0 x 10-7 M.
– If you add acid or base to water they are no longer
equal but the Kw expression still holds.
66
66
• H2O(l) + H2O(l)
H3O+(aq) + OH-(aq)
• We call the equilibrium constant the ionproduct constant, Kw.
Kw = [H3O+][OH-]
At 25°C, Kw = 1.0 × 10-14
• As temperature increases, the value of Kw
increases.
67
67
Solutions of Strong Acid or Base
• In a solution of a strong acid you can
normally ignore the self-ionization of water
as a source of H+(aq).
– The H+(aq) concentration is usually
determined by the strong acid
concentration.
– However, the self-ionization still exists and
is responsible for a small concentration of
OH- ion.
68
68
• As an example, calculate the concentration of OHion in 0.10 M HCl.
Because you started with 0.10 M HCl (a
strong acid) the reaction will produce 0.10
M H+(aq).
+
−
HCl(aq ) → H (aq ) + Cl (aq )
– Substituting [H+]=0.10 into the ion-product
expression, we get:
−
−
1.0 × 10 14 = (0.10)[OH ]
69
69
Solutions of Strong Acid or Base
• As an example, calculate the concentration of OHion in 0.10 M HCl.
Because you started with 0.10 M HCl (a strong
acid) the reaction will produce 0.10 M H+(aq).
+
−
HCl(aq ) → H (aq ) + Cl (aq )
– Substituting [H+]=0.10 into the ion-product
expression, we get:
1.0 × 10-14
= 1.0 × 10-13 M
[OH ] =
0.10
−
70
70
• Similarly, in a solution of a strong base you
can normally ignore the self-ionization of
water as a source of OH-(aq).
– The OH-(aq) concentration is usually
determined by the strong base
concentration.
– However, the self-ionization still exists and
is responsible for a small concentration of
H+ ion.
71
71
• As an example, calculate the concentration of H+
ion in 0.010 M NaOH.
Because you started with 0.010 M NaOH (a
strong base) the reaction will produce 0.010

Solutions of Strong Acid or Base
• By dissolving substances in water, you can
alter the concentrations of H+(aq) and OH(aq).
– In a neutral solution, the concentrations of H+(aq)
and OH-(aq) are equal, as they are in pure water.
– In an acidic solution, the concentration of H+(aq) is
greater than that of OH-(aq).
– In a basic solution, the concentration of OH-(aq) is
greater than that of H+(aq).
74
74
• At 25°C, you observe the following
conditions.
– In an acidic solution, [H+] > 1.0 x 10-7 M.
– In a neutral solution, [H+] = 1.0 x 10-7 M.
– In a basic solution, [H+] < 1.0 x 10-7 M.
75
75
The pH of a Solution
• Although you can quantitatively describe
the acidity of a solution by its [H+], it is
often more convenient to give acidity in
terms of pH.
– The pH of a solution is defined as the
negative logarithm of the molar hydrogenion concentration.
+
=
−
pH
log[H ]
76
76
• For a solution in which the hydrogen-ion
concentration is 1.0 x 10-3, the pH is:
−3
pH = − log(1.0 ×10 ) = 3.00
– Note that the number of decimal places in
the pH equals the number of significant
figures in the hydrogen-ion concentration.
77
77
The pH of a Solution
• In a neutral solution, whose hydrogen-ion concentration
is 1.0 x 10-7, the pH = 7.00.
• For acidic solutions, the hydrogen-ion
concentration is greater than 1.0 x 10-7, so the
pH is less than 7.00
• .
• Similarly, a basic solution has a pH greater
than 7.00.
• Figure 15.8 shows a diagram of the pH scale
and the pH values of some common solutions.

The pOH of a Solution
• A measurement of the hydroxide ion
concentration, similar to pH, is the pOH.
– The pOH of a solution is defined as the
negative logarithm of the molar hydroxideion concentration.

The pOH of a Solution
• A measurement of the hydroxide ion
concentration, similar to pH, is the pOH.
– Then because Kw = [H+][OH-] = 1.0 x 10-14
at 25 oC, you can show that
pH + pOH = 14.00

The pH of a Solution
• The pH of a solution can accurately be
measured using a pH meter (see Figure
15.9).
– Although less precise, acid-base indicators are
often used to measure pH because they usually
change color within a narrow pH range.
– Figure 15.8 shows the color changes of various
acid-base indicators.
