What defines an acid in relation to a base?
An acid is defined as a H+ donor, while a base is defined as a H+ acceptor.
2
New cards
What is the chemical equation for the formation of carbonic acid from CO2 and water?
CO2(g) + H2O(l) → H2CO3(aq) (Carbonic Acid)
3
New cards
What is produced when carbonic acid interacts with water?
H2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) → HCO3-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
4
New cards
What is the chemical equation for oyster shell formation?
CaCl2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq) → CaCO3(s) + 2 NaCl(aq)
5
New cards
How does increased acidity affect oyster shell formation?
Increased acidity can lead to shell deconstruction, as shown by the equation: H3O+(aq) → HCl(aq) + CaCO3(s) ⇌ H2O(l) + CO2(g) + CaCl2(aq).
6
New cards
What principle explains equilibrium shifts in chemical reactions?
Le Chatelier's Principle.
7
New cards
What happens to equilibrium when there is an increase in reactant concentration?
There is a shift towards the products side to counteract the change.
8
New cards
What does adding heat do to an exothermic reaction according to Le Chatelier's Principle?
It shifts the equilibrium towards the reactants (R ⇌ P + Heat).
9
New cards
What is indicated by '(aq)' in a chemical equation?
It signifies that the substance is in an aqueous solution, meaning it is dissolved in water.
10
New cards
What does it mean when there are no shifts in equilibrium?
It indicates that the conditions of the system are at balance, and there are no changes in concentration or other stress applied.
