REACTIONS OF ACIDS
Acids react with metals to produce hydrogen gas
Magnesium + hydrochloric acid  magnesium chloride + hydrogen
gas
Hydrochloric acid also reacts with carbonate compounds to
produce carbon dioxide
REACTIONS OF BASES
Bases react with carbon dioxide to form carbonates
Calcium hydroxide + carbon dioxide  calcium carbonate + water
NAMING ACIDS
Binary Acids
•composed of two elements: hydrogen and a non-metal ex. HF (aq)
•typically a hydrogen attached to a halogen and dissociated in water,
hence the “aq”
HF  F- + H+
•begin with the prefixes “hydro”
HCl (aq) = hydrochloric acid
HBr (aq) =
Oxoacids
•formed from a polyatomic ion that contains oxygen, hydrogen and
another element. They have NO overall charge

NAMING BASES
Ionic hydroxides
NaOH =
Hydroxide bases only show their basic properties when
they are in solution; thus, we use (aq) in the formula of a
base.
ARRHENIUS THEORY OF ACIDS AND BASES
• An acid is a substance that ionizes in water to produce one or more
hydrogen ions, H+
• Example:
H2SO4 (aq)  2 H+ (aq) + SO4 2- (aq)
• A base is a substance that dissociates in water to produce one
or more hydroxide ions, OH• Example: Ca(OH)2 (aq) 
Ca 2+ (aq) + 2 OH- (aq)
• Ionization vs dissociation
• Both occur when a compound breaks apart in water, causing the
presence of ions
• Dissociation occurs when water molecules pull the + and – ions apart
• Ionization involves the formation of ions from uncharged molecules,
causing uncharged entities to become ionized. How? Arrhenius didn’t
say!
• In water, ionic compounds DISSOCIATE and molecular compounds
IONIZE.
• Thankfully, the chemical equations look the same!
BRøNSTED LOWRY THEORY OF
ACIDS AND BASES
A broader definition of acids and bases
BRØNSTED ACID: Substance that donates an H+ (proton)
BRØNSTED BASE: Substance that accepts an H+ (proton)
Under this definition, a substance can ONLY act as an acid
(donating a proton) IF another substance is acting as a
base at the same time.
BRøNSTED LOWRY THEORY OF
ACIDS AND BASES
Two molecules or ions that are related by the transfer of a
proton are called: A CONJUGATE ACID-BASE PAIR
EVERY BRØNSTED ACID has a conjugate base that forms after
the acid has donated its H+ (proton).
EVERY BRØNSTED BASE has a conjugate acid that forms after the
base has accepted a H+ (proton).

**STRENGTH and CONCENTRATION of
acids/bases are not related!
• Diluting A STRONG ACID does not make it a
weak acid.
• ie: HCl is always a strong acid, regardless of
whether its [ ] is 20 mol/L or 0.001 mol/L
• It will always completely ionize in water,
regardless of concentration!!
• Similarly, a WEAK ACID can be very
concentrated.
STRONG AND WEAK ACIDS
Acidic solutions that have high electrical conductivity are
considered STRONG ACIDS
In these solutions almost all (>99%) the acid ionizes
(produces ions)
Typically these acids are highly corrosive HCl, HNO3, H2SO4
WEAK ACIDS have low percentage ionization, i.e. they only
ionize partially (<50%)
Examples of weak acids are H2CO3 and HCH3COO
STRONG AND WEAK BASES
An ionic hydroxide compound that dissociates
completely (>99%) in solution is considered a
STRONG BASE
Similar to acids, weak bases do not dissociate
completely
Some weak bases do not contain a hydroxide ion
but, when dissolved in solution, produce hydroxide
ions
Example: ammonia
NH3 + H2O  NH4+ + OH-
MONOPROTIC ACIDS
Contain a single hydrogen ion that can dissociate (can only
lose one proton).
Example: HCl(aq) 
H+(aq) +
Cl-(aq)
What are diprotic acids and triprotic acids?
EXAMPLE OF A TRIPROTIC ACID
H3PO4(aq) + H2O(l) ↔
H+(aq) + H2PO4-(aq)
H2PO4-(aq) + H2O(l) ↔
H+(aq) + HPO42-(aq)
HPO4(aq) + H2O(l)
↔
H+(aq) + PO4-(aq)
*FIRST DISSOCIATION IS STRONGER THAN SECOND DISSOCIATION.
pH
In pure water, (neutral solution), a very low
concentration of water molecules ionize to
produce hydronium ions and hydroxide ions
•
S.P. Sorenson proposed that the acidity of a
solution be expressed in terms of a quantity
known as pH
The pH of solution is related to the quantity of
hydronium ions (H3O+) in a given amount of
solution, in the mathematical expression
pH
• pH = “power of hydrogen”
• pH scale is measurements by powers of ten
• pH of 3 is 10 times more acidic than pH of 4
100 times more __________than
basic
• pH of 10 is _______
pH of 8
• Indicators are substances that will change different colours in the presence
of an acid or base
ACID BASE INDICATORS
Indicators can be used to determine the
whether a solution is acidic or basic
We must choose the right indicator!
pH of a Solution
Recall…
•
Acids release H+ when they ionize in water
•
Concentration is the amount of a solute in a
given volume of solvent
These two concepts have been combined to describe
the acidity of a solution (or pH)
•
pH is the concentration of H3O+ (or H+) in a
solution
pH of a Solution
Also recall (according to Arrhenius)…
Acidic solutions have a higher concentration of
hydronium ions
Basic solutions have a higher concentration of
hydroxide ions
Thus, the pH scale works by determining the
hydronium ion concentration
pH Scale
Pure water has a hydronium concentration of
1 x 10-7 mol/L
Thus,
In an acidic solution: [H3O+] > 1 x 10-7 mol/L
In a basic solution: [H3O+] < 1 x 10-7 mol/L
pH Scale
From this:
The pH of a solution is defined as the negative
of the exponent to the base 10 of the hydrogen
ion concentration
+
[H ]
=
-pH
10
pH Scale
Example: What is the [H+] of a solution with a pH
of 3?
[H+] = 10-pH
[H+] = 10-3
[H+] = 1.0 x 10-3 mol/L
pH Scale
Example: What is the [H+] of a solution with a pH
of 10.33?
[H+] = 10-pH
[H+] = 10-10.33
[H+] = 4.7 x 10-11 mol/L
pH Scale
To determine the pH of a solution, the following
equation would need to be used:
pH = -log[H+]
Example: What is the pH of an antacid solution with
a hydrogen ion concentration of 5.3 x 10-11?
pOH
The same formulas can be used to find the concentration of base
pOH = -log[OH-]
[OH-] = 10-pOH
pH + pOH = 14
