1
New cards

acids

a proton donor

2
New cards

proton

H+, hydrogen without electron

3
New cards

base

proton acceptor

4
New cards

strong acid

HCl (hydrochloric acid), 100% ionized

5
New cards

weak acids

vinegar; 5% allows for the acid to be reversibile

6
New cards

Hydronium ion

H3O, H+ doesnt exist in H2O so in water we have this ion instead

7
New cards

pH scale

is a way to express the acidity or basicity of a solution

8
New cards

pH

is equal to the negative log of H+ or H3O

  • -log[H+] = -log[H3O]

9
New cards

p

-log

10
New cards

if pH = 2.5

  • -log[H+] = 2.5

  • -log[H3O] = 10-2.5 = 3×10-3 M

11
New cards

pH 7

neutral (pure water)

12
New cards

pH > 7

any pH greater than 7 is a basic

13
New cards

pH < 7

any pH less than 7 is an acid
