Weak Acids
• A weak acid is an acid that ionizes poorly
• Only a small percentage of the acid molecules ionize
• Most acids are weak acids
Example:
+ −
𝐻𝐶2 𝐻3 𝑂2(𝑎𝑞) → 𝐻 (𝑎𝑞) + 𝐶2 𝐻3 𝑂2 (𝑎𝑞)
Bases
• A base is a substance that produces hydroxide
ions, OH-, in water
• When basic solutions are made, a process called
dissociation takes place
• Dissociation is the process in which ions break
apart when dissolved in solution
Strong Bases
• A strong base is a base that dissociates 100% in aqueous
solution
Examples:
𝑁𝑎𝑂𝐻(𝑠) → 𝑁𝑎+ (𝑎𝑞) + 𝑂𝐻− (𝑎𝑞)
𝐾𝑂𝐻(𝑠) → 𝐾 + (𝑎𝑞) + 𝑂𝐻− (𝑎𝑞)
Weak Bases
• A weak base is a base which ionizes poorly
• Only a small percentage of those base molecules actually
ionize
Example:
+ −
𝑁𝐻3(𝑎𝑞) + 𝐻2 𝑂(𝑙) → 𝑁𝐻4 (𝑎𝑞) + 𝑂𝐻 (𝑎𝑞)
Properties of
Acids & Bases
pH Scale
• pH is a measure of how acidic or basic a solution is
(<7 = acidic, 7 = neutral, >7 = basic)
• A change of one pH unit represents a tenfold change in how acidic or basic a
solution is
• Eg. lemon juice (pH 2) is 10 x more acidic than Pepsi (pH 3)
pH Indicators are substances
whose solutions change color
due to changes in pH
Reaction with Soft Metals Yes, forms H2 (g) No, except for Aluminum.
Ex: Mg + 2HCl → MgCl2 + H2 Aluminum will react with caustic
alkali (hydroxide)
ACIDS
Arrhenius Base
• an ionic compound that dissociates into cations and hydroxide ions
(OH-1) in water.
Dissociation
• occurs when water molecules pull the positive and negative ions of an
ionic compound apart.

Strong Bases and Weak Bases
• A strong base is a base that dissociates completely in water
- Hydroxides of group 1 and group 2 elements tend to be strong bases

Neutralization Reaction
• A reaction between an acid and a base
Salt
• A compound composed of a metal cation from a base and an anion from an
acid
• The reaction between any aqueous solution of a strong acid and any aqueous
solution of a strong base forms a neutral salt and water
• If the molar amounts are balanced—that is, if there are equal numbers of aqueous
hydrogen ions and aqueous hydroxide ions—all the acid and all the base will be
neutralized, leaving a solution with a pH of 7.
Equations
• Overall Equation:

AQUEOUS substances. All liquids, and solids will remain as the full
substance
Equations
• This equation removes all the SPECTATOR IONS (all ions that are on both reactant and
product side).

• A pH indicator helps us
determine the
NEUTRALIZATION POINT
• This point is when the
MOLES OF THE BASE are
equal to the MOLES OF THE
ACID
• We know this has occurred,
when there is a change in
colour of the solution
Experimentally Determining the Concentration of an Acid
or Base
Titration is a procedure used to determine the concentration of a
solution by reacting a known volume of that solution with a
measured volume of a solution that has a known concentration
• The goal of a titration reaction is to reach the EQUIVALENCE POINT, which is when the
MOLES OF H+ IONS in the solution is equal to the MOLES OF OH- IONS in the solution.
When this happens, the solution is NEUTRAL
• Very precise volumes of solution are required to determine the END POINT, which the
the point when a pH indicator in the solution will change colours.
• We choose the pH indicator so that the NEUTRALIZATION POINT matches the END POINT
• The EQUIVALENCE POINT is when the amount of acid and base in the flask match their
mole ratio in a chemical reaction. Basically nOH- = nH+ is the equivalence point
The main apparatus of a
titration include: a burette,
which holds the titrant, and an
Erlenmeyer flask, which
contains the solution of
unknown concentration and a
few drops of indicator.
Example 1
• Determine the concentration of acetic acid if 10.0
mL of unknown concentration of acetic acid is
titrated with 6.7 mL of a 0.15 mol/L solution of
NaOH.
Step 1: Write
out the
BALANCED
chemical
equation
Step 1
• To convert between one substance and another, you need to look at the mol ratio.
• This means to look at the coefficients of the two substances
• In this example, we are trying to find the concentration of acetic acid, given the
concentration of NaOH
• We can only do the ratio between moles! You CANNOT convert concentration to
concentration!
• The coefficients in front of acetic acid and sodium hydroxide are both 1. So, our ratio is
1:1
c=n/V
= 0.00100 mol / 0.0100 L
= 0.10 mol / L
= 0.10 M
• A 25.0 mL sample of
hydrochloric acid is titrated
with a 1.00 mol/L NaOH
solution. The end point is
Example reached when 67.5 mL of
base has been added.
Calculate the concentration
2 of the acid in mol/L.
