| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Acids | - turns blue litmus paper red - corrosive - react with bases - low pH (0-6.9) - conduct electricity |
| Bases | - turns red litmus paper blue - corrosive - react with acids - high pH (7-14) - tastes bitter - feel slippery |
| Bronsted-Lowry theory | - describes acid base properties in terms of proton transfer - Bases Accept Acids Donates (BAAD) |
| Amphiprotic substances | - can act as an acidor a base depending on what it is reacting with. eg. H2O, HSO4, HCO3. H2PO4, HPO4 |
| Classification of acids | - based on how many protons/hydrogens they can donate. > Monoprotic - acids that only donate one proton. > DIprotic - acids that donates two protons. > Triprotic - acids that donates three proton. |
| Strong vs weak | strong - - will ionise fully - in a solution, will basically have no unreacted molecules. weak - - will ionise only a small amount - in a solution, there will be alot of unreacted molecules. |
| Strength vs Concetration | strength: refers to the tendency to dissociate. concentration: refers to how much of a substance is present within a solution |
| Neutralisation reaction | acid + base -> salt + water |
| Acid and metal hydroxides | acid + metal hydroxide -> salt + water |
| Acid with metal carbonates | acid + metal carbonate -> salt + water + carbon dioxide |
| Reactions of antacids | - antacids are a type of medicine that neutralise the acid content in your stomach. - bases. - reaction will produce salt, water and SOMETIMES carbon dioxide. - some can form alginate (a salt of alginic acid) |
| Ionic product of water (Kw) | - [H3O] = [OH] = 1.00 x 10^-7 M at 25 C - Because of this, the ionic productof water is 1.00 x 10^-14 M^2 and is represented by Kw. |
| pH | - measeurement of acidity of a solution - pH of a solution (pH = -log10[H3O] - can be rearranged to [H3O] = 10^-pH |
| Need-to-know acids | - HCL - H2SO4 - HNO3 - CH3COOH - H2CO3 - H3PO4 |
| Need-to-know bases | - NaOH - NH3 - Ca(OH)2 - Mg(OH)2 - Na2CO3 |
