the reactions below:
a. HSO41- + NH3  SO42- + NH41+
b. H2O + NO31-  OH- + HNO3

3. Label the beaker in the picture that represents a strong acid. Label the beaker that represents a
weak acid.
a. What makes an acid or base strong?
b. What makes an acid or base weak?
c. List 7 strong acids.
d. List 8 strong bases.
4. List 4 properties of an acid. List 4 properties of a base.
5. Use the pH equations below to answer these questions.
pH = -log[H+]
pOH = -log[OH-]
pH + pOH = 14.00
[H+] = 10-pH
[OH-] = 10-pOH
[H+] × [OH-] = 1.00 × 10-14 M2

b. Calculate the pH of a solution of HCl with a concentration of 6.56 × 10-7 M.
c. Determine the pOH of a solution of HNO3 with a [OH-] of 7.67 × 10-11 M.
d. Find the pH of a solution of Ca(OH)2 with a concentration of 8.78 × 10-6 M.
e. Calculate the [H+] of an HClO3 solution with a pH of 2.32.
f.
Calculate the [OH-] of a solution of HI with a [H+] of 9.89 × 10-4 M.
g. Calculate the [H+] of a solution of Sr(OH)2 with a pOH of 3.43.
6. Use the neutralization equation to answer these questions.
MAVA = MBVB
a. What is the concentration of .900L HCl needed to neutralize 1.21 L of .0750 M LiOH?
b. What is the volume, in L, of 1.40 × 10-4 M HClO3 needed to neutralize 125 mL of 1.10 ×
