1. Bronsted-Lowry Acid-Base Model
Conjugate pairs
HB(aq) + A-(aq) ⇌ HA(aq) + B-(aq)
Example:
(a) What is the conjugate base of HNO2? The conjugate acid of
F-?
(b) The HCO3- ion, like the H2O molecule, is amphiprotic. What is
its conjugate base? Its conjugate acid?
Answer:
a. HNO2 H+ + NO2- (conjugate base)
F- + H+ HF (conjugate acid)
b. HCO3- H+ + CO32- (conjugate base)
HCO3- + H+ H2CO3 (conjugate acid)
1. The Ion Product of Water
pH + pOH = 14
3. pH dan pOH
3. pH dan pOH
Calculate, at 25oC:
a. the [H+] and pH of a tap water sample in which [OH-] = 2.0 x 10-
7
.
b. the [H+] and [OH-] of human blood at pH 7.40.
c. the pOH of a solution in which [H+] = (5.0)[OH-].
Answer:
2. pH = -log10[H+] = 7.40
[H+] = 10-7.40 = 4.0 x 10-8 M

Measuring pH
The pH of a solution can be measured by:
1. pH meter. A
pH meter translates the H+ ion concentration of a solution
into an electrical signal that is converted into either a
digital display or a deflection on a meter that reads pH
directly
2. Universal indicator
a mixture of acid-base indicators that shows changes in
color at different pH values. The measurement is less
accurate
3. pH paper
Has similar principle with universal indicator. Strips of this
paper are coated with a mixture of pH-sensitive dyes.
Depending on the indicators used, a test strip can measure
pH over a wide or narrow range.
3. pH dan pOH
pH meter
Universal indicator
• Strongly acidic solution (upper left), pH < 6
• Neutral solution, pH 6-8 (yellow – green)
• Strongly basic solution, (lower right), pH>8
(deep violet)

4. Weak Acids
As a simple ionization:
HB (aq) + H2O H+ (aq) + B- (aq)
4. Weak Acids
[ H ][ B ]
Ka
[ HB ]
Answer:
a. HC2H3O2 (aq) + H2O ⇌ C2H3O2- (aq) + H3O+
Zn(H2O)42+ (aq) + H2O ⇌ Zn(OH)(H2O)3+ (aq) + H3O+

4. Weak Acids
Percent ionization
HB (aq) H+ (aq) + B- (aq)
Example:
Nicotinic acid, HC6H4O2N (Ka = 1.4 x 10-5), is another name for
niacin, an important member of the vitamin B group. Determine
[H+] in a solution prepared by dissolving 3.0 g of nicotinic acid
(MM = 123.11 g/mol), HNic, in enough water to form 245 mL of
solution
4. Weak Acids
Answer:
[HNic]o = 3 g/123.11 = 0.1 M

4. Weak Acids
Example:
Calculate [H+] in 0.100 M HNO2 with Ka = 6.0 x 10-4.
Answer:
HNO2(aq) ⇌ H+(aq) + NO2-(aq)

x = 0.0074 M
4. Weak Acids
Example:
The distilled water you use in the laboratory is slightly acidic
because of dissolved CO2, which reacts to form carbonic acid,
H2CO3. Calculate the pH of a 0.0010 M solution of H2CO3 and [CO32-]
at equilibrium.
Answer:
H2CO3 (aq) ⇌ H+(aq) + HCO3-(aq) Ka = 4.4x10-7
4.4 x 10-7 = x2
