What are Acids &Bases?

Definition?

a) Arrhenius

b) Bronsted-Lowry

c) Lewis

16-5CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

Arrhenius, Svante August (1859-1927), Swedish chemist, 1903 Nobel Prize in chemistry

•Acid Anything that produces hydrogen ions in a water solution.

HCl (aq) H+

( aq) + Cl-

( aq)

•Base Anything that producs hydroxide ions in a water solution.

NaOH (aq) Na+

( aq) + OH

- ( aq)

•Arrhenius definitions are limited proton acids and hydroxide bases

to aqueous solutions.

Arrhenius Definitions

16-6CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

Expands the Arrhenius definitions to include many bases other than hydroxides and gas phase reactions

Acid Proton donor

Base Proton acceptor

This definition explains how substances like ammonia can act as bases.

Eg. HCl(g) + NH3(g) ------> NH4Cl(s)

HCl (acid), NH3 (base).

NH3(g) + H2O(l) NH4+

+ OH-

Brønsted-Lowry definitions

16-7CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

Lewis DefinitionG.N. Lewis was successful in including acid and bases

without proton or hydroxyl ions.

Lewis Acid: A substance that accepts an electron pair.

Lewis base: A substance that donates an electron pair.

E.g. BF3(g) + :NH3(g) F3B:NH3(s)

the base donates a pair of electrons to the acid forming a

coordinate covalent bond common to coordination

compounds. Lewis acids/bases will be discussed later in

detail

pH of Aqueous Solutions

16-22CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

What is pH?

Kw = [H3+O][OH-] = 1 x 10-14

[H3+O][OH-] = 10-7 x 10-7

Extreme cases:

Basic medium

[H3+O][OH-] = 10-14 x 100

Acidic medium

[H3+O][OH-] = 100 x 10-14

pH value is -log[H+]

spans only 0-14 in water.

16-23CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

pH, pKw and pOHThe relation of pH, Kw and pOH Kw = [H+][OH-] log Kw = log [H+] + log [OH-] -log Kw= -log [H+] -log [OH-] ; previous equation multiplied by -1 pKw = pH + pOH; pKw = 14 since Kw =1 x 10-14

14 = pH + pOH

pH = 14 - pOH

pOH = 14 - pH

14 = pH + pOH

pH = 14 - pOH

pOH = 14 - pH

16-24CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

pH and pOH calculations of acid and base solutionsa) Strong acids/bases

dissociation is complete for strong acid such as HNO3 or base NaOH

[H+] is calculated from molarity (M) of the solution

b) weak acids/bases

needs Ka , Kb or percent(%)dissociation

16-25CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

pH of Strong Acid/bases

HNO3(aq) + H2O(l) H3+O(aq) + NO3-(aq)

Therefore, the moles of H+ ions in the solution is equal to moles of HNO3 at the beginning.

[HNO3] = [H+] = 0.2 mole/L

pH = -log [H+]

Find out the pH, acidic or basic?

If acidic it should be a salt of weak base

If basic it should be a salt of weak acid

if acidic calculate Ka from Ka= Kw/Kb

if basic calculate Kb from Kb= Kw/Ka

Do a calculation similar to pH of a weak acid or base

What is the pH of 0.5 M NH4Cl salt solution? (NH 3; Kb = 1.8 x 10-5)

Find out the pH, acidic

if acidic calculate Ka from Ka= Kw/Kb

Ka= Kw/Kb = 1 x 10-14 /1.8 x 10-5)

Ka= 5.56. X 10-10

Influence of Molecular Structure on Acid Strength

Binary Hydrides• hydrogen & one other element

Bond Strengths• weaker the bond, the stronger the acid

Stability of Anion• higher the electronegativity, stronger the acid

16-65CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

Binary Acids

Compounds containing acidic protons bonded to a more electronegative atom.

e.g. HF, HCl, HBr, HI, H2S

The acidity of the haloacid (HX; X = Cl, Br, I, F)Series increase in the following order: HF < HCl < HBr < HI

16-66CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

Oxyacids

Compounds containing acidic - OH groups in the molecule.

Acidity of H2SO4 is greater than H2SO3 because of the extra O (oxygens)

The order of acidity of oxyacids from the a halogen (Cl, Br, or I) shows a similar trend.

HClO4 > HClO3 > HClO2 > HClO

Influence of Molecular Structure on Acid Strength

Oxyacids• hydrogen, oxygen, & one other element

H-O-E• higher the electronegativity on E, stronger the acid as

this weakens the bond between the O and H

16-69CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

Acidic Oxides

These are usually oxides of non-metallic elements such as P, S and N.

E.g. NO2, SO2, SO3, CO2

They produce oxyacids when dissolved in waterSO3 + H2O ---> H2SO4

CO2 + H2O ---> H2CO3

NO2 + H2O ---> HNO3

16-70CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

Basic Oxides

Oxides oxides of metallic elements such as Na, K, Ca. They produce hydroxyl bases when dissolved in water.

e.g. CaO + H2O ---> Ca(OH)2

Na2O + H2O ---> 2 NaOH

16-71CHEM 102, Fall 2010, LA TECH

Protic Acids

Monoprotic Acids: The form protic refers to acidity due to protons. Monoprotic acids have only one acidic proton. e.g. HCl.

Polyprotic Acids: They have more than one acidic proton.

e.g. H2SO4 - diprotic acid

H3PO4 - triprotic acid.

Lewis DefinitionG.N. Lewis was successful in including acid and bases

without proton or hydroxyl ions.

Lewis Acid: A substance that accepts an electron pair.

Lewis base: A substance that donates an electron pair.

E.g. BF3(g) + :NH3(g) F3B:NH3(s)

the base donates a pair of electrons to the acid forming a

coordinate covalent bond common to coordination

compounds. Lewis acids/bases will be discussed later in

detail
