Unit 9: Acids, Bases, Salts Notes & CWThe bold, underlined words are important vocabulary words that you should be able to define and use properly in explanations. This is a study guide for what you will be tested on throughout the year. The objectives are divided into categories of “Knowledge” (what you have to know) and “Application” (what you have to be able to do).
ACIDS, BASES, AND SALTS
Knowledge Application
1.
o The behavior of many acids and bases can beexplained by the Arrhenius Theory.
o Arrhenius acids produce H+ (hydrogen ions) asthe only positive ions in aqueous solution. Thehydrogen ion may also be written as H3O
+ andcalled the hydronium ion.
o Arrhenius bases produce OH– (hydroxide ions)as the only negative ion is aqueous solution.(Table E)
o Know the definitions of Arrhenius acids and bases
o If given the properties, chemical formula, or name,identify a substance as an Arrhenius acid orArrhenius base. (Use Tables K, L, and T to help youremember these definitions. Arrhenius acids begin with H,Arrhenius bases are metals + hydroxide ion(s). *Don’t befooled by alcohols, which also end in OH, but containcovalent bonds and do not ionize like bases do in solution.ALCOHOLS ARE NOT BASES!)
2.
o Arrhenius acids, Arrhenius bases, and salts (ioniccompounds) are all electrolytes. An electrolyte is asubstance which, when dissolved in water, forms asolution capable of conducting an electric current(electricity). Electrolytes can conduct electricitybecause they ionize (break apart into ions) in asolution.
o The ability of a solution to conduct an electriccurrent depends on the concentration of the ions init (more ions, more conduction).
o Given names or chemical formulas, identify acids,bases, and salts as being electrolytes
o Determine the relative strength (strong or weak)of an electrolyte given information on its abilityto ionize in solution.(Strong acids and strong bases are strong electrolytes –Tables K and L list acids and bases in order fromstrongest to weakest.If a salt is soluble, it is a strong electrolyte – Table F canbe used to determine the solubility of different salts.)
3.
o In the process of neutralization, an Arrhenius acidand an Arrhenius base react to form a salt andwater.
Acid + Base Salt + Water
o Recognize neutralization reactions when given thereaction equation
o Write neutralization reactions when given thereactants. (Remember that this is a double replacementreaction. Just switch the positive ions, look up theircharges and cross down the subscripts if needed. Thenbalance the equation.)
4.
o Titration is a laboratory process in which a volumeof solution with a known concentration is added toanother solution of unknown concentration.Titrations are done to determine the concentrationof the unknown solution.
o Calculate the concentration or volume of asolution, using titration data using the equation
Ma x Va = Mb x Vb (This equation is on Table T)
5. o There are alternate acid-base theories. One
such theory states that the acid is a proton donor(H+ donor) and the base is a proton acceptor.
o Give the alternate definitions of acids and baseso Use this definition to explain why ammonia is
considered a base
6.
o The acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solutioncan be measured using the pH scale.
o The pH scale measures the concentration ofH+/H3O
+ in a solution. [H+] = 10–pH
A pH of 1 means that the [H+] = 10–1 = 0.1MA pH of 3 means that the [H+] = 10–3 = 0.001M
Acids have pH values between 0 and 7 (the stronger the acid, the lower the pH and the more H+)
[H+] [OH–]
Neutral solutions have a pH of 7 [H+] = [OH–]
Bases have pH values between 7 and 14 (the stronger the base, the higher the pH and the more OH–)
[H+] [OH–]
o Identify a solution as acidic, basic (alkaline), orneutral based upon the pH value OR the relativeconcentrations of H+/H3O
+ and OH–
o Describe acidic, basic, and neutral solutions interms of pH value and relative H+/H3O
+ and OH–
concentrationso Differentiate between strong acids/bases and
weak acids/bases given pH values or ionconcentrations
7.
o The pH scale is a logarithmic scale, which meansthat a change of one pH unit changes theconcentration of H+/H3O
+ by a factor of ten
tenfold = 10 times = 101
hundredfold = 100 times = 102
thousandfold = 1000 times = 103
The exponents represent the CHANGE in pHo If a solution becomes more acidic,
the pH , and the [H+]/[H3O+]
o If a solution becomes more basic,
the pH , and the [H+]/[H3O+]
o Determine the new pH value of a solution giventhe starting pH and the amount of increase ordecrease in [H+]/[H3O
+] (such as tenfold, ahundredfold, or a thousandfold)
Ex: A lake with an initial pH of 6 has been affected by acid rain. The acid rain has caused a hundredfold change in the [H+] concentration of the lake. What is the new pH of the lake?
Answer: pH = 4
o Determine the amount that the [H+]/[H3O+]
would increase or decrease given a certain changein pH
8.
o The pH of a solution can be shown by usingindicators.
o An indicator is a substance that changes colordepending on the concentration ofhydrogen/hydronium ions in a solution.
o Interpret changes in acid-base indicator coloro Explain how different indicators can be used to
distinguish between solutions with different pHvalues
o Identify appropriate indicators that can be used toshow changes in pH values, such as during atitration, given starting and ending pH values

Lesson 5: The pH Scale - The Power of Hydrogen:
pH = direct measurement of _______________________ in a solution
The pH scale is designed to measure ___________ or ____________ an aqueous solution is. The concentration of hydronium and hydroxide ions in a solution will determine whether a solution is acidic or basic.
The pH scale ranges from ___ TO ___ (ACIDIC neutral BASIC)
In an acidic substance [H+] > [OH-] (brackets indicate concentration) In a basic substance [H+] < [OH-] In a neutral substance [H+] = [OH-] Example: H2O
The pH of a solution is the negative log of the [H+]:
pH = -log[H+]
7 14 0
ACIDIC NEUTRAL BASIC
If the [H+] is in the form 1 X 10-x then the pH = x Examples:
Solution A has [H+] = 1 X 10-2 then the pH = __________________ Solution B has [H+] = 1 X 10-8 then the pH = __________________Solution C has [H+] = 1 X 10-6 then the pH = __________________
Solution D has [H+] = 1 X 10-13 then the pH = __________________
20
For basic solutions, find the pOH using the negative log of the [OH-], then subtract that value from 14 to get the pH:
pOH = -log[OH-]
pH = 14 – pOH
Each change of a SINGLE pH UNIT signifies A TENFOLD CHANGE IN [H+] CONCENTRATION

pH:pH is a scale that measures the hydronium ion (H+) concentration of a solution. A pH of less than 7 indicates an acidic solution. A solution with a pH of 7 is neutral. A solution with a pH of 7 to 14 is basic and contains a higher concentration of hydroxide ions than hydronium ions. Indicators are substances that change color in the presence of certain ions. Phenolphthalein is colorless in an acid and a neutral solution, but pink in a base. Litmus is red in an acid and blue in a base. This is outlined on Table M of the Reference Tables. For each of the following substances indicate the pH range expected: acid = pH < 7, neutral = pH = 7, or base = pH > 7. Also indicate the color the indicator will appear based on these values. Finally, state if the substance is an acid (A) or a base (B).

Lesson 8: (Acid-Base) Titration:
Titrations are used to CALCULATE THE CONCENTRATION (MOLARITY) OF AN UNKNOWN SOLUTION
Acid of unkown molarity is reacted with a carefully measuredamount of a base of known molarity to the point of_____________________ (or vice versa)
In all neutralization reactions there must be a _____________ between the ______________________ and the ______________________
So, in a titration, when: _______ = _______
or ______________________ = ______________________
that means you’ve reached the _____________________ of the reaction; this is when the titration is complete. The ______________ of a titration is the pH at which the solution changes color permanently.
What does a Titration look like?
Titration formula (Table T): MA VA = MB VB
Where: MA = molarity of acid (H+) VA = volume of acid MB = molarity of base (OH-) VB = volume of base
Use this formula when you are dealing with atitration or neutralization word problem
Make sure that all units are in agreementwhen plugging into formula (so they cancel outand you get the right answer!)

Lab - Hydronium vs. Hydroxide: A Battle to the End Point
It is sometimes necessary to experimentally determine
the concentration of an acid solution or a base solution. A
procedure used for this is called an acid-base titration. In
this procedure, a solution of known concentration, called the
standard solution, is used to neutralize a precisely measured
volume of the solution of unknown concentration, to which an
indicator has been added. If the solution of unknown
concentration is acidic, a standard base solution is added to
the acid solution until neutralized. If the solution of unknown
concentration is basic, a standard acid solution is added to the
base solution until it is neutralized.
When carrying out an acid base titration, you must be
able to recognize when to stop adding the standard solution
(when the point of neutralization is reached). This is the
purpose of the indicator. A sudden change in color of the indicator signals that neutralization has
occurred. At this point, the number of hydrogen ions H+ (or hydronium ions, H3O+) from the acid equals
the number of hydroxide ions (OH-) from the base. The point at which this occurs is called the endpoint
of the titration. The volumes of the standard solution and the unknown solution are measured, and
applied to the following equation:
MaVa= MbVb
Ma =Molarity of the acid solution Mb = Molarity of the basic solution
Va =Volume of the acid solution Vb = Volume of the basic solution
Objective: In this experiment you will determine the molarity of an unknown HCl with a standard
solution of 1.0 M NaOH .
The equation for this reaction is: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)
Materials and Equipment:
burette stand, burette clamp, 100 ml graduated cylinder, 25 mL graduated cylinder, 250 mL
Erlenmeyer flask, 2 - 250 mL beakers, dropper bottle of phenolphthalein, distilled water and funnel
Procedure:
1. Put on goggles. Keep them on until your instructor gives the OK for everyone to remove them.
2. Label two beakers: A (for acid) and B (for base).
(Standard Solution -Known Concentration)_
(Solution of unknown
concentration)
38
3. In Beaker A obtain approximately 75 mL of acid, and in Beaker B obtain 75 mL base from the stock
bottles. Record the known concentration of the base on your Data sheet.
4. Rinse the burette with distilled water. Let it run out into the sink. Then rinse once with 5-10 mL of
base. Again let it run into the sink with the faucet slowly running. Then close the stopcock. It
should be perpendicular to the burette.
5. Hold the top of the burette at eye level or slightly below. Using the funnel, carefully add the base to
the burette. Go about an inch past the top line on the burette, being careful not to let it overflow.
Then again hold the burette over the sink. Open the stopcock and let excess base run into the sink
(while you run water) until the base in the burette is at or just below the 0 mark. This allows any
trapped air bubbles to be removed. Now place the burette in its holder.
6. Record the initial volume of the base in the burette to the nearest 0.1 mL in the table.
7. Rinse out the graduated cylinder and Erlenmeyer flask with distilled water. Use the graduated
cylinder and a pipette to measure out about 20 mL of the acid. Record the exact amount in the
data table to the nearest 0.1 mL. Carefully pour into the Erlenmeyer flask.
8. Use the dropper pipet to add 2 to 3 drops of phenolphthalein to the flask.
9. Put the flask under the burette. Put a piece of white paper underneath it. The tip of the burette
should be within the flask.
10. Slowly add base to the flask, while constantly swirling the flask. The pink color should fade with
swirling. When the pink color persists for longer periods, add the base more slowly until you are
adding it drop by drop.
** It is titrated when 1 drop of base causes a pink color that persists for 10-20 seconds (with swirling)
and then disappears. At this point, your solution is at the end point.
11. Record the final volume of the base in the burette in the table to the nearest 0.1 mL.
12. Dump the contents of the flask down the drain。Repeat the experiment from Step 6 above. If the
burette need to be refilled, make sure you record the new initial volume.
13. When done with both trials, drain the burette down the drain while running water. Rinse burette
with distilled water. Hang burette upside down on the burette clamp with paper towel underneath.
Rinse out the burette funnel with water. Dispose of excess acid and base from the beakers as
directed. Clean up and return supplies.
14. Do calculations and answer questions.

Part 2: Acid Rain Simulation
Background
Acid rain and vinegar have similar pH values. Over the next week you will observe and record the effect that vinegar has on an egg shell.
Materials 25 ml vinegar
One uncooked egg Glass container with lid
pH paper with pH chart Graduated cylinder Small paint brush
Safety
Always wear safety goggles when handling chemicals in the lab. Wash your hands thoroughly before leaving the lab. Follow the teacher’s instructions for cleanup of materials and disposal of
chemicals. When working with acids, if any solution gets on your skin immediately rinse
the area with water.
Procedure
1. Carefully place a single egg inside one of the glass containers.2. Record your qualitative observations about the egg shell in the data table
(color, hardness, etc.)3. Measure 25 ml of vinegar in a graduated cylinder.4. Pour all the vinegar onto the egg in the jar. Using the paint brush, apply the
vinegar to the shell of the egg, so that the entire surface has been saturatedwith vinegar.
5. Touch the paint brush to a strip of pH paper. Compare the color change withthe pH color chart. Record the pH value in the data table.
6. Seal the jar with the lid, and place the jar in a safe place.
7. After 24 hours return to the jar.8. Remove the lid, and dip your paint brush in the jar and touch it to a new
piece of pH paper. Record this value in your data table.9. Again record your qualitative observations about the egg shell in the data
table, specify color, hardness, etc. Wear gloves if you remove the egg from
the jar.10. Seal the jar with a lid, and place the jar in a safe place.
11. Repeat steps 7-9 several times during a week (complete 3-4 observationsafter the first day).
12. After a week, wearing gloves remove the egg from the jar and gently rinse
the egg with water. Record your final observations.

Analysis
1. How does the pH of vinegar compare with the average pH of acid rain? Referto your webquest if needed.
2. What indicators of chemical change did you observe on the egg shell duringthe week trial?
3. Research to find out what the main chemical component of an egg shell is.Record its chemical name and chemical formula.
75
4. Research to find out what the acid in vinegar is called. Record its chemicalname and chemical formula.
5. What kind of reaction took place between the egg shell and the vinegar?
Conclusion
What other materials contain the same chemical as the one found in egg shells?
Reflect on the egg and vinegar reaction, why was this done, and how was it helpful
as you learned about acid rain?
