Acid-Base Equilibria pH and pOH Relationship of Conjugate Pair acid-base strength. When acids or bases control pH: determine K predict pH When pH controls acid/base state: predict acid/base state use acid/base state to determine pH Buffer action pH titration curves
pH/pOH Calculations [H 3 O + ][OH - ] = 1.0 x pH = -log[H 3 O + ] pOH = -log[OH - ] [H 3 O + ] = 10 -pH [OH - ] = 10 -pH pH + pOH = What is the pH of a solution with [H 3 O + ] = 4.6 x What is the pOH of a solution with [OH - ] = 3.3 x What is the pOH of a solution with [H 3 O + ] = 2.4 x What is [H 3 O + ] when pH = 4.2
Acid-Base Equilibria Bronsted Acid: H + (proton) donor Bronsted Base: H + acceptor Acid-Base reactions: H + transfer reaction Conjugate Acid-Base Pairs: acidconjugate base HFF - NH 4 + NH 3
