Why do acids produce H3O+?
• H+ is extremely attracted to the unshared pair of electrons on the water molecule so it donates itself to this molecule where it becomes covalently bonded. The ion formed is known as the hydronium ion (H3O+)
H+

Why can we drink H2O?
• Water self ionizes to form equal concentrations of H3O+ and OH-
H2O(l) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + OH-
(aq)
• A substance is considered “neutral” when [H3O+] = [OH-]
• [H3O+] concentration = 1.0 x 10-7M
• [OH-] concentration = 1.0 x 10-7 M
![Page 12: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
When [H3O+] = [OH-]
• If [H3O+] > 1.0 x 10-7 M, the solution is acidic• If [OH-] > 1.0 x 10-7 M, the solution is basic
• To find the concentration of [H3O+] or [OH-] in acidic or basic solutions, the following equation can be used:
1.0 x 10-14 M2 = [H3O+] [OH-]
1.0 x 10-14 M2 = ionization constant for H2O (Kw)

The pH scale
• The pH scale measures the power of the hydronium ion [H3O+] in a solution
• The scale typically goes from 1-14 (although it can extend below or above it under extreme conditions)
• The following equations can be used to determine the pH or [H3O+] of a solution:
pH = -log [H3O+] [H3O+] = antilog (-pH)
[H3O+] = 1 x 10-pH

The pOH scale
• The pOH scale measures the power of the hydroxide ion [OH-] in a solution
• The scale typically goes from 1-14 (although it can extend below or above it under extreme conditions)
• The following equations can be used to determine the pOH or [OH-] of a solution:pOH = -log [OH-] [OH-] = antilog (-pOH)
[OH-] = 1 x 10-pOH

Expansion of the Acid-Base Theory
• Substances can still act as an acid or base if they are not dissolved in water to make a solution
![Page 25: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Bronsted-Lowry Bases
• A molecule or ion that is a proton (H+) acceptor

Monoprotic versus Polyprotic Acids
• Monoprotic acids can only donate 1 proton per molecule
HCl(g) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Monoprotic
![Page 28: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Polyprotic acids can donate more than one proton per molecule
H2SO4(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + HSO4
-(aq)
Polyprotic
HSO4-(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+

Is H2O an acid or a base?
• H2O is amphoteric, it can react as either an acid or a base
• If H2O reacts with a compound that is a stronger acid than itself, it acts as a base
• If H2O reacts with a weaker acid, it will act as the acid

OH- in a molecule
• When an OH- group is covalently bonded in a molecule, it is referred to as a hydroxyl group
• Hydroxyl groups are present in many organic compounds
Ex. Acetic acid (HC2H3O2) or CH3COOHHydroxyl
group
![Page 33: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
How does the OH- make something acidic?
• In order for a compound with an OH- group to be acidic, H2O must be able to attract the H atom from the OH- group and act as a proton donor
CH3COOH(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + CH3COO-
(aq)The more O atoms bonded to the OH- group, the more acidic the compound is likely to be.
Oxygen is highly electronegative and will attract electrons closer to it, making the OH- bond more polar. This will allow H2O to “steal” the H atoms more easily.
![Page 34: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Why are substances with OH- covalently bonded to it sometimes not acidic?
• Ex. Acetic acid (CH3COOH) versus ethanol (C2H5OH)
Acetic acidEthanol
Acetic acid- the 2 O atom on the C atom draws electron density away from the OH- group, making the bond more polar. This allows the H+ to be donated more easily
Ethanol- this compound is essentially neutral. It does not have a second O atom to make the bond as polar. It would be classified as a very weak acid because it is harder to donate H+.
![Page 35: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Further expansion of acid-base theory
• Substances can still act like an acid or base if they do not contain hydrogen at all
![Page 36: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Lewis acids & bases
• A Lewis acid is an atom, ion, or molecule that accepts an electron pair to form a covalent bond
Ag+(aq) + 2NH3(aq) [H3N-- Ag--NH3]+
• A Lewis base is an atom, ion, or molecule that donates an electron pair to form a covalent bond
e- pair acceptor
e- pair donator
![Page 37: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Sample Lewis acid-base problem
• For the following equation, which reactant is the Lewis acid? Lewis base?
BF3(aq) + F-
(aq) BF4- (aq)
![Page 38: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• BF3 is the Lewis acid because it is the e- pair acceptor
• F- is the Lewis base because it is the e- pair donor

Titrations
• When you have a solution with an unknown concentration, you can find it by reacting it completely with a solution of known concentration
• This process is known as titrating• To perform a titration, an instrument called a
buret can be used to precisely measure amounts of solution, drop by drop
![Page 43: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Titration Termonology
• Equivalence point - the point at which the known and unknown concentration solutions are present in chemically equivalent amounts
moles of acid = moles of baseIndicator - a weak acid or base that is added to the solution with the unknown concentration before a titration so that it will change color or “indicate” when in a certain pH range (table 16-6 on pg. 495 in your text will show various indicators and their color ranges)
![Page 45: Acids & Bases](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070411/5681476b550346895db4a6ba/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• End point - the point during a titration where an indicator changes color
• The 2 most common indicators we will use in our chemistry class will be:
• Phenolphthalein - turns very pale pink at a pH of 8-10
• Bromothymol blue - turns pale green at a pH of 6.2-7.6

How do pH indicators work?
• Acid-base indicators are usually weak acids or bases that are in equilibrium and show color changes when a stress is applied
HIn H+ + In-
In acidic solutions, the H+ concentration increases. The stress will cause a shift to the left (red color).
In basic solutions, the OH- concentration increases. These ions will combine with H+ which will cause a shift to the right (blue color)
