3. Equilibrium Acids and Bases & Equilibrium Section 6-7

4. Strong Bronsted-Lowry Acid A strong Bronsted-Lowry Acid is one that donates all of its acidic protons to water molecules in aqueous solution. (Water is base – electron donor or the proton acceptor).

5. Strong Bronsted-Lowry Base Accepts protons from water molecules to form an amount of hydroxide ion, OH -, equivalent to the amount of base added.

7. Question Can you think of a salt that when dissolved in water is not an acid nor a base?

8. Weak Bronsted-Lowry acid One that DOES not donate all of its acidic protons to water molecules in aqueous solution. Example?

9. Weak Bronsted-Lowry base Does NOT accept an amount of protons equivalent to the amount of base added, so the hydroxide ion in a weak base solution is not equivalent to the concentration of base added. example:

11. Question: Question: Calculate the Concentration of H + and OH - in Pure water at 25 0 C. Equilibrium and Water

12. EXAMPLE: Calculate the Concentration of H + and OH - in Pure water at 25 0 C. H 2 O H + + OH - KW=KW= K w =

14. EXAMPLE: Calculate the Concentration of H + and OH - in Pure water at 25 0 C. H 2 O H + + OH - KW=KW= K w =

15. Example What is the concentration of OH - in a solution of water that is 1.0 x 10 -3 M in [H + ] (@ 25 o C)? K w = [H + ][OH - ] 1.0 x 10 -14 = [1 x 10 -3 ][OH - ] 1.0 x 10 -11 = [OH - ] “From now on, assume the temperature to be 25 o C unless otherwise stated.”

25. Write out the equilibrium constant for the following expression Fe 3+ + SCN -  Fe(SCN) 2+ Q: What happens to K when we add, say KNO 3 ?

26. K decreases when an inert salt is added!!! Why? K eq

27. 8-1 Effect of Ionic Strength on Solubility of Salts Consider a saturated solution of Hg 2 (IO 3 ) 2 in ‘pure water’. Calculate the concentration of mercurous ions. Hg 2 (IO 3 ) 2(s)  Hg 2 2+ + 2IO 3 - K sp =1.3x10 -18 seemingly strange effect A seemingly strange effect is observed when a salt such as KNO 3 is added. As more KNO 3 is added to the solution, more solid dissolves until [Hg 2 2+ ] increases to 1.0 x 10 -6 M. Why? ICE some- - -x+x+2x some-x+x+2x

28. Increased solubility Why? LeChatelier’s Principle? Complex Ion? ?

30. The potassium hydrogen tartrate example

31. Alright, what do we mean by Ionic strength? Ionic strength is dependent on the number of ions in solution and their charge. Ionic strength (  ) = ½ (c 1 z 1 2 + c 2 z 2 2 + …) Or Ionic strength (m) = ½  c i z i 2

32. Examples Calculate the ionic strength of (a) 0.1 M solution of KNO 3 and (b) a 0.1 M solution of Na 2 SO 4 (c) a mixture containing 0.1 M KNO 3 and 0.1 M Na 2 SO 4. (  ) = ½ (c 1 z 1 2 + c 2 z 2 2 + …)

33. Alright, that’s great but how does it affect the equilibrium constant? Activity = A c = [C]  c AND

34. Relationship between activity and ionic strength Debye-Huckel Equation 2 comments  = ionic strength of solution  = activity coefficient Z = Charge on the species x  = effective diameter of ion (nm) (1)What happens to  when  approaches zero? (2)Most singly charged ions have an effective radius of about 0.3 nm Anyway … we generally don’t need to calculate  – can get it from a table

35. Activity coefficients are related to the hydrated radius of atoms in molecules

36. Relationship between  and 
