1) Arrhenius definition of an acid
Acid is a substance that produces H+ ions in water
2) Statement that describes an amphiprotic molecule or ion?
Act as a acid or base
3) When a Brosted-Lowary base gains a proton, species formed is called a conjugate acid
4) Strong acids and bases = large degree of dissocilation in water, strong electrolytes
Weak acids and base - do not have a degree of dissolation in water, they have a weak electroloytes
5) Common strong Bronsted Lowery acids - HCL and NHO3
6) Arrheous acids - produce OH when dissolved in water
Arrheius base - produces H+ when dissolved in water
7) Species formed when a Bronstead -Lowery acid loses a proton is called its conjugate base
8- Weak Bronstead Lowery bases is called K0H and NaOH
9- Explain why pure water contains some ions - H20 abosrbs H+ and OH- ions from the surrounding air to become ionized.
10- A substance with a PH <7 is acidic and a substance with a pH >7 is basic
11- In order to provide a more accurate measurement of Ph, a pH meter should be used.
12- The autoionization of water is a process in which water ionizes very slightly to form hydronium ions and hydroxide ions
13- Basic solution = pH > 7.00, Acidic solution = pH <7.00, neutral solution = pH =7.00
14- The pH scale is a logarithmic scale of hydronoum ion concentration, it is used to characterise the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.
15 - pH can be measured qualitatively using pH paper or using a pH…
