Arrhenius Theory of Acids and Bases What are Acids Wh t A id and Bases? Acids • the properties are due to the presence of _______________________________________ • Eg. HCl Bases ‐ the properties are due to the presence of ______________________________________ ‐ Eg. NaOH LIMITATIONS: ((1)) H+ (aq) does not exist in water Æ (2) Bronsted‐Lowry Bronsted Lowry Theory of Acids and Bases Theory of Acids and Bases Lewis Acids and Bases Acids are substances that produce a Lewis acid is a substance, such as the H+ ion, that can accept a pair of nonbonding electrons Æ p g _________________________ ____________________________________ A Lewis base is a substance, such as the OH‐ ion, that can donate a pair of nonbonding electrons Æ __________________ donate a pair of nonbonding electrons Æ Eg. HCl(g) + H2O(l) → H3O+(aq) + Cl‐(aq) Bases are substances that can accept a ____________________________________ Eg. NH3 (g) + H2O(l) ÅÆ NH4+(aq) + OH–(aq) ____________ _____________ Conjugate Acid‐Base Conjugate Acid Base Pairs Pairs Conjugate acid‐base pairs differ from each other by the presence or absence of a single hydrogen ion (proton). Every acid has a conjugate base, and every base has a conjugate acid conjugate acid. What are Strong Acids? What are Strong Acids? Strong acids produce many H+ ions (or H3O+ ions) Eg. HCl(g) + H2O(l) → H3O+(aq) + Cl‐(aq) Weak acids produce few H+ ions Eg. HC2H3O2 (aq) ↔ H+(aq) + C2H3O2‐(aq) The stronger the acid, _________________________ Polyprotic Acids ____________________________ H2SO4 (aq) → H+(aq) + HSO4‐(aq) 4 (aq) → HSO4‐(aq) → H+(aq) + SO42‐(aq) What are Strong Bases? What are Strong Bases? Strong bases produce many OH‐ ions Eg. Mg(OH)2 (aq) → Mg2+(aq) + 2 OH‐(aq) Weak bases produce few OH‐ ions Eg. NH2CH3(aq) + H2O(l) ↔ NH3CH3+(aq) + OH‐(aq) The stronger the base, __________________________ Calculating Ion Concentrations Calculating Ion Concentrations • Pg 386 #8 2.75g of MgO 2 75g of MgO (s) is added to 70 0mL of 2 40 mol/L HNO3(aq).
