Term
Acid
Definition
a proton donor
Term
Base
Definition
proton acceptor
Term
conjugate Acid
Definition
formed by the addition of a proton to the reactant base
base-add proton-->conj. acid
Term
conjugate Base
Definition
formed by the removal of a proton from the reactant acid
acid--subtract proton--->conj. base
Term
Acids React with MEtals
Definition
acids will react with metals ABOVE hydrogen on the activity series to produce an ionic compound and H2 gas.
Ex. 6HC2H3O(aq)+2Al(s)-->3H2(g)+2Al(c3H3O2)3(aq)
Term
Acids Reaction With Bases
Definition
neutralizes reactions to produce a new salt and water. Use Solubility RULES.
Ex. HBr(aq)+KOH(aq)-->KBr(aq)+H2O(l)
Term
Acids Reaction with Metal Oxides
Definition
Produce a salt and water. Use Solubility RULES.
Ex. H2SO4(aq)+MgO(s)-->MgSO4(aq)+H2O(l)
Term
Acids Reaction with Carbonates(CO3 2-) & Bicarbonates (HCO3 -)
Definition
These reactions produce a new ionic compound and carbonic acid. Carbonic acid is unstable and immediately go to CO2 & H2O. Use Solubility Rules.
Ex. H2SO4(aq)+MgCO3(s)-->MgSO4(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g)
Term
Amphoteric
Definition
meaning they can either react as an acid or a base
Term
BASE reactions with Acids
Definition
neutralization reactions
Term
Reactions of BASES
Definition
1. with acids=neutralization reaction
2. Hydroxides of certain metals such as zinc, aluminum and chromium are amphoteric.
3. Some amphoteric metals react directly with KOH & NaOH to produce hydrogen.
Term
SALTS
Definition
recall that salts are the produce of a neutralization reaction.
Term
STRONG ACIDS
Definition
HCl, HBr, HI, H2SO4, HClO3, HClO4, HNO3
Term
STRONG BASES
Definition
Hydroxides of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals.
Term
ELECTROLYTES
Definition
Have Ions, Conduct electricity.
ionic compounds are electrolytes.
Term
NON Electrilytes
Definition
Do not dissociate into ions in water, they are molecular compounds, do not conduct electricity.
Term
Strong Electrolytes
Definition
100% dissociates into ions; all salts(ionic compounds) and Strong Acids and Bases.
Term
Weak Electrolytes
Definition
NOT 100% dissociated into ions in water, weak acids and bases, Nh3, Fe(OH)3, HNO2.

*do not confuse with nonelectrolytes HC2H3O2.
Term
pH
Definition
water is amphoteric and reacts as follows:
H2O+H2O-->H3O(hydronium)+OH-(hydroxide)
The ionization of water at 25'C produces a hydrogen (hydronium) ion concentration of 1.0x10^-7 M and a hydroxide ion concentration of 1.0x10^-7 M.
Term
pH: the Greater the acidity the...
Definition
the greater the H+ the less the pH.
pH less than 7 is acid.
less OH-=greater pH
Term
pH: the less the Acidity the....
Definition
less the H+, the greater the pH.
pH greater than 7=Base.
greater the OH-=less pH.
Term
pH: the acidity of the solution depends on the concentration of the hydrogen or hydronium ions.
Definition
Term
Titrations
Definition
are neutralization reactions involving the mixing of an acid and a base to get a salt and water.
Term
Equivalence Point
Definition
the equivalence point in a neutralization reaction is where moles of base added are equal to the moles of acid in the beaker.
Term
Endpoint
Definition
where the indicator changes colors.
it is an approximation of the equivalence point.
Term
Net Ionic Equations
Definition
show only the species that are involved with the chemical reaction.
Term
Spectator Ions
Definition
they are not directly involved with the chemical reaction.
Term
steps to writing a Net Ionized Equation
Definition
1. Write the complete balanced equation including phases of each compound.
2. IONIZE everything that is an (aq)-put in proper coefficients.
3. Cancel out the spectator ions.
4. Write the equation you have left..this is the net ionic equation!!
