Chapter 19

Chapter 19: Acids, bases, and salts.

QuestionAnswer
(H3O+) Hydronium ion: The ion that forms when a water molecule gains a hydrogen ion.
Conjugate acid: The ion or molecule formed when a base gains a hydrogen ion.
Conjugate base: The ion or molecule that remains after an acid loses a hydrogen ion.
Conjugate acid-base pair: Consists of two ions or molecules related by the loss or gain of one hydrogen ion.
Amphoteric: A substance that can react as either an acid or a base.
Lewis acid: A substance that can accept a pair of electrons to form a covalent bond.
Lewis base: A substance that can donate a pair of electrons to form a covalent bond.
Self-ionization: The reaction in which water molecules produce ions.
Neutral solution: Any aqueous solution in which H+ and OH- are equal.
Ion product constant for water: (Kw)
Acidic solution: A solution in which H+ is greater than 1 x 10^-7 M
Base solution: One in which H+ is less than OH-
Alkaline solutions: Also known as basic solutions.
pH: The pH of a solution is a negative logarithmic hydrogen-ion concentration.
pH less than 7.0: Acidic
pH greater than 7.0 Basic
Two methods that are used to measure pH: Acid-base indicators, or pH meters.
Strong acid: (In general) is completely ionized in an aqueous solution.
Weak acid: Ionized only slightly in an aqueous solution.
Acid dissociation constant (Ka): The ratio of the concentration of the dissociated form of an acid to the concentration of the undissociated form.
Base dissociation constant (Kb): The ratio of the concentration of the conjugate acid times the concentration of the hydroxide ion to the concentration of the base.
Neutralization reaction: The complete reaction of a strong acid and a strong base produces a neutral solution.
Titration: The process of adding a measured amount of a solution of known concentration to the solution of unknown concentrations.
Standard solution: The solution of known concentration.
Equivalence point: The point at which neutralization occurs.
End point: The point at which the indicator changes color.
Salt hydrolysis: The cations and anions of a dissociated salt remove hydrogen ions from, or donate hydrogen ions to, water.
Buffer: A solution in which the pH remains fairly constant when small amounts of acid or base are added.
Buffer capacity: The amount of acid or base that can be added to a buffer solution before a significant change in pH can occur.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
