IX. Acids, Bases and Salts
Behavior of many acids and bases can be explained by the Arrhenius theory. Arrhenius acids and bases are electrolytes. 2
An electrolyte is a substance which, when dissolved in water, forms a solution capable of conducting an electric current. The ability of a solution to conduct an electric current depends on the concentration of ions. Acids, Bases and Salts (ionic compounds) are electrolytes 3

Titration is a laboratory process in which a volume of solution of known concentration is used to determine the concentration of another solution. Max. Va = Mbx. Vb Ma = Molarity of H+ Mb = Molarity of OH- Va = Volume of Acid Vb = Volume of Base At the equivalence point, the moles of H+ equals the moles of OH 22

Regents Question: A titration setup was used to determine the unknown molar concentration of a solution of Na. OH. A 1. 2 M HCl solution was used as the titration standard. The following data were collected. 35. 2 m. L - 23. 2 m. L 12. 0 m. L Calculate the volume of Na. OH solution used to neutralize 10. 0 m. L of the standard HCl solution in trial 3. Show your work. 25

Bromthymol Blue because it changes color at a neutral p. H (7) Phenolphthalein because it changes color right after being neutral. Calculate the average molarity of the unknown Na. OH solution for all four trials. Your answer must include the correct number of significant figures and correct units. Ma. Va=Mb. Vb 1. 2 Mx 10. 0 m. L = X x 12. 2 m. L X=1. 0 M 1. 2 Mx 10. 0 m.

There alternate acid-base theories. One theory states that an acid is an H+ (proton) donor and a base is an H+ (proton) acceptor. When NH 3 reacts with HCl, the HCl donates a proton (H+) and NH 3 accepts a proton (H+) NH 3 + HCl NH 4+ + Cl- 27
The acidity or alkalinity of a solution can be measured by its p. H value. The relative level of acidity or alkalinity of a solution can be shown by using indicators. Red Litmus turns Blue in Base Blue Litmus turns Red in Acid 28

Conjugate Acids & Bases Any acid that can release H+ can re-accept and bind it to varying degrees. Strong acids like HCl release essentially all H+ ions. HCl H+ + Cl Weak acids like in vinegar release a small percentage of H+ ions. Most remain bound. HC 2 H 3 O 2 H+ + C 2 H 3 O 2 Salts contain positive & negative ions. Any negative ion has some capacity to bind with H+ ions to act like a base. Conjugates represent examples with or without H+ attached.
