Acid and base Flashcards
(15 cards)
1
Q
bronsted-lowry model
A
acid is proton donator
base is proton acceptor
2
Q
monoprotic
A
can only donate one proton
3
Q
strong acid pairs with …
A
weak conjugate base
4
Q
properties of strong acid and bases
A
readily accepts/donates protons
a lot of ions
increased conductivity
5
Q
self-ionization of water
A
H2O(l) —-> OH-(aq) + H+(aq)
6
Q
conjugates
A
when acid donates -> conjugate base
base accepts -> conjugate acid
7
Q
buffer systems
A
resist change in pH
made of; weak acid and conjugate base
and weak base and conjugate acid
8
Q
smaller Ka value …
A
weaker acid
9
Q
smaller pKa value…
A
stronger acid
10
Q
types of strong acids
A
HCl
HNO3
11
Q
strong bases
A
NaOH
KOH
12
Q
weak acids
A
CH3COOH
13
Q
weak base
A
amines
NH3
14
Q
arrhenius model
A
when dissolved in water, it will donate H+
15
Q
what do indicators do
A
- change colour as the conc of H+ ions changes
- are weak acids or bases
