acids Flashcards
acid
proton donor
base
proton acceptor
acid or base
react with water is a reversible reaction
alkali as a base
base that’s soluble in water and produces oh- ions in water
weak acid
CH3COOH and other carboxylic acids
backwards reaction favoured so not many h+ produced
ch3cooh ⇌ ch3cooh + h+
strong acid
Hcl h2so4 hno3
forward reaction favoured lots of h+ ions produced
strong base
Naoh KOH
forward reaction favoured strongly so man hy oh- ions produced
weak base
nh3
backward reaction favoured so not many oh- ions produced
acid + base
acid + base → salt (ph neutral)
h= ions from acid reaction with oh- ions in base forming water = neutral
nh3
doesn’t produce oh- ions directly
reacts with water 1st
accepts protons to produce nh4+ and oh- Ions
ammonia + acid
salt and no water
acid + metal
salts
metal and acid
salt and hydrogen
ca(S) + h2so4 → caso4 + h2
metal hydroxide + acid
salt and water
2naoh +h2s04 → na2so4 +h20
metal oxide and acid
salt and water
Mgo + 2hcl → mgcl + h20
