CHM 11200 Chapter Notes - Chapter 16: Sulfuric Acid, Ammonia
Document Summary
Bronsted acid is a substance that can donate a proton: after donating the proton what remains is a conjugate base. Bronsted base is a substance that can accept a proton: after accepting the proton it becomes a conjugate acid. Hcl donates a proton to water leaving cl- aka conjugate base: the two species hcl and cl- are known as a conjugate acid-base pair or conjugate pair. H2nconh2 h2nconh3+ (cid:1005)(cid:1010). (cid:1006) the a(cid:272)id-base properties of water. Water has ability to act as acid or base in bronsted model. Amphoteric: species that can behave either as a bronsted acid or a bronsted base. Ion-product constant: kc for specific reaction (cid:1005)(cid:1010). (cid:1007) the ph s(cid:272)ale. Ph of a solution is defined as the negative base-10 logarithm of the hydronium ion concentration (in mol/l: ph = -log(h3o+) or ph = -log(h+) Convert numbers ranging a huge range to numbers between 1 and 14 (cid:1005)(cid:1010). (cid:1008) strong a(cid:272)ids and (cid:271)ases.
