Q

what is la chateliar’s principle

A

If one or more factors that affect an equilibrium is changed, the position of equilibrium shifts in the direction that reduces the change

17
Q

how to find pH of strong acids

A

[H+] = concentration of acid

18
Q

how to find pH of strong bases

A

using Kw

[OH-] = concentration of base

19
Q

how to find pH of weak acids

A

Ka = [H+]^2/[HA}

20
Q

what does high value of Ka mean

A

equilibrium toward right = stronger acid

21
Q

pKa formula

A

-log[Ka] (less positive = more acidic)

22
Q

definition of indicator

A

Acid-base indicator is a dye/mixture that changes colour over a specific pH range. The weak acid and conjugate base has different colours. Hln ⇌ H+ + ln-

23
Q

what does pKa show

A

transition of colour

24
Q

where is equivalence point

A

midpoint of fall

25
Q

strong acid + strong base

equivalence point + pH range

A

7

10.5 - 3.5

26
Q

strong acid + weak base

equivalence point + pH range

A

5

7.5 - 3.5

27
Q

weak acid + strong base

equivalence point + pH range

A

9

11 - 7.5

28
Q

how to find Ka of buffer solution

A

[H+][A-]/[HA]

29
Q

definition of buffer solution

A

a solution that resists in pH changes when small amounts of H+ or OH- are added;

30
Q

uses of buffer solution

A

electroplating

dyes

31
Q

how to find equations in buffer solution

A

acid partially dissociates so conjugate base is not enough - salt is needed
A (acid) ⇌ B + C
D (salt) → E + F (conjugate base)

32
Q

look at examples of buffer solutions now

A

ok

33
Q

how to find pH of buffer solution

A

pKa + log [A-]/[HA]

34
Q

definition of solubility product

A

product of concentrations of each ion in a saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt at 298K raised to the power of their relative concentrations

35
Q

definition of saturated solution

A

solution in contact with its undissolved solid

36
Q

smaller Ksp means

A

less soluble

37
Q

what is Ksp dependant

A

temperature

38
Q

definition of common ion effect

A

the reduction in the solubility of a dissolved salt achieved by adding a solution of a compound which has an ion in common with the dissolved salt, often resulting in precipitation.

39
Q

definition of partition coefficient

A

equilibrium constant that relates the concentration of solute partitioned between two immiscible solvents at a particular temperature.

40
Q

how to find Kpc

A

[organic solvent]/[in water]
