Acids

(Lecture id-1122)

TOPICS & OBJECTIVES

1010 - Acids Explained
    1010 - Describe the classic properties that define an acid and base.
    1020 - Identify and give examples of common substances that are acids and bases.
    1030 - Define and give examples of Arrhenius acids and Arrhenius bases.
    1040 - Recognize and understand that a proton in water is solvated and is often represented as H3O+.
    1050 - Define and give examples of Bronsted-Lowry acids and Bronsted-Lowry bases.
    1060 - Understand and identify conjugate acid-base pairs.
 
1020 - Acid Strength
    1010 - Recognize acid strength is inversely proportional to H bond strength.
    1020 - Relate acid dissociation constant Ka to the concentration of acid components in a solution.
    1030 - Understand that most organic acids (includeing acetic and formic acid) are weak.
    1040 - Identify strong and weak binary acids and oxy-acids, explain trends in acid strength.
    1050 - Identify the strength of conjugate bases (strong-neg, weak-weak, neg-strong).
    1060 - Identify polyprotic acids. Understand why they have more than one Ka.
    1070 - Explain why polyprotic acids have more multiple Ka values.
 
1030 - Autoionization of Water
    1010 - Explain the term amphoteric and identify water as amphoteric.
    1020 - Recognize pure water has a concentraiton of H+ and OH^1- of 10^-7 (at 25˚C).
    1030 - Express Kw (the disscociation of water) in terms of [H+] and [OH^1-]
    1040 - Show that Kw for water is 10^-14 (at 25˚C).
    1050 - Solve for [H+] and [OH^1-] in water, given the other.
