Theories of Acids and Bases:
Arrhenius Theory
Examples:                                                                
Acid - will produce a H + ion in water            
Base - will produce a OH- ion in water
HBr


KOH
                                                         
Bronsted-Lowry Theory

Acid - a proton donor
Base - a proton acceptor
HCl
NH3

Lewis Theory

Acid - e- pair acceptor
Base - e- pair donor

Answers:


  1)  [OH -] = 1 x 10-14/1 x 10-3 =  1 x 10 -11
  2)  [OH -] = 1 x 10 -14 /6.22 x 10-9 = 1.61 x 10-6
  3)  [OH -] = 1 x 10 -14 /7.5 x 10-5 = 1.33 x 10-10
  4)  [H +] = 1 x 10 -14 /1 x 10-6 = 1 x 10-8
  5)  [H +] = 1 x 10 -14 /2.8 x 10-11 = 3.6 x 10-4
  6)  [H +] = 1 x 10 -14 /4.95 x 10-2 = 2.02 x 10-13
  7)  pH = -log 1 x 10 -13 = 13
  8)  pH = -log 9.25 x 10 -2 = 1.03
  9)  pH = -log 5.045 x 10 -4 = 3.297
10)  [H +] = antilog -6 = 1 x 10-6
11)  [H +] = antilog -2.35 = 4.47 x 10 -3 12)  [H +] = antilog -12.62 = 2.399 x 10 -13
13)  pOH = 14 - 11 = 3
       
[OH -] = antilog -3 = 1 x 10-3
14)  pOH = 14 - 3.47 = 10.53
       
[OH -] = antilog -10.53 = 2.95 x 10-11
15)  [OH - ] = antilog -5.38 = 3.9 x 10 -6
16)  pOH = 14 - 2 = 12
17)  pH = -log 2.60 x 10 -9 = 8.59
       pOH = 14 - 8.59 = 5.41

18)  pOH = -log 8.12 x 10 -12 = 11.1

Titrations
M1V1 = M 2V2
Solve:
35. 8 ml of 2.70 M HCl is titrated to its endpoint with 22.1 ml of NaOH. Determine the [NaOH].

M1 V 1 = M2 V 2
2.70 M(35 . 8 ml) = M2(22 . 1 ml)
M2 = 4 . 37 M
