Solution pH

(Lecture id-1123)

TOPICS & OBJECTIVES

1010 - pScale
    1010 - Know the relationships pX = -log (X) and X = 10^-pX
    1020 - Convert to or from pScale with X = [H+], [OH^1-] or Ka
    1030 - Explain what problem pScale solves and how to interpret X with increasing pX.
    1040 - Identify solution relative acidity or basicity by pH.
    1050 - Recognize the pH of pure water is 7 (at 25 ˚C).
    1060 - Use the relationship pOH + pH = 14 to solve for either.
    1070 - Relate the pH of a solution to concentration and Ka of a strong acid.
 
1020 - Weak Acids & Bases
    1010 - Classify binary acids, oxy-acids, and their conjugate bases as weak or strong.
    1020 - Identify an acid as weak if it has a pKa of 2-14.
    1030 - Relate the pH of a weak acid solution to concentration and Ka of its acid.
    1035 - Identify Kb as the hydrogen abstraction reaction of a base with water.
    1037 - Relate Kb of a weak base to Ka of its conjugate acid using Kw = Ka * Kb.
    1050 - Relate the [OH^1-] of a weak base solution to the concentration and Kb of its base.
 
1025 - Lewis & Polyprotic Acids
    1010 - Determine the pH of a polyprotic acid solution with a weak Ka and a strong(er) Ka.
    1020 - Classify salt anions as strongly basic, weakly basic or pH neutral by examing their conjugate acid.
    1030 - Understand how small, highly charged cations (ex: Fe^3+, Al^3+) increase [H+].
    1040 - Classify a substance that accepts electron pairs as a Lewis acid.
    1050 - Classify a substance that donates electron pairs as a Lewis base.
