#3
Front (Question)

When dissolved in water, ____ acids completely ionize (break apart ions).

Back (Answer)

Strong Acids. HCl, HBr, HI, HNO3, HClO4, H2SO4 Have weak conjugate bases.

#4
Front (Question)

When dissolved in water, ____ acids partially ionize.

Back (Answer)

Weak acids. (prefers this form) HF, H2CO3, H3PO4, organic acids (carboxylic acid, protonated drugs, etc) *Have STRONG conjugate bases.

#5
Front (Question)

When dissolved in water, ____ bases completely ionize (break apart ions).

Back (Answer)

Strong bases. LiOH, NaOH, KOH, Sr(OH)2, Ca(OH)2, Ba(OH)2

#6
Front (Question)

When dissolved in water, ____ bases partially ionize.

Back (Answer)

Weak bases. Mg(OH)2, transition metal hydroxies, NH3

#7
Front (Question)

When a base accepts a proton, what has it now become?

Back (Answer)

Conjugate acid!

#8
Front (Question)

When an acid gives away a proton, what has it now become?

Back (Answer)

Conjugate base!

#9
Front (Question)

What is amphoteric?

Back (Answer)

When speaking of water, it means it can act as either an acid or a base. She’s a lil indecisive. ;)

#10
Front (Question)

What is the water constant (Kw) (pH + pOH = )

Back (Answer)

14

#11
Front (Question)

Back (Answer)

Pure water! (Neutral pH)

#12
Front (Question)

Is the pH scale logarithmic? What does this mean?

Back (Answer)

Yes. This means an increase of 1 (so pH of 6 to 7) is actually a factor of 10!!!

#13
Front (Question)

How do we measure acid strength? (2 ways)

Back (Answer)

• Ka (acid-dissociation constant) (the larger = more acidic = easier it is to remove a proton) • pKa (the lower, the more acidic)

#14
Front (Question)

pKa scale *lower = more acidic

Back (Answer)

• -20 - 25 = acidic! • 30-60 = not as acidic (not considered basic)

#15
Front (Question)

Strong base calculation ____.

Back (Answer)

• pOH- = -log [OH-] • pH + pOH = 14 (plug in and solve) *remember normal range for pH of a base (>7) *dont forget to balance your equation!!!

#16
Front (Question)

Strong acid calculation ____.

Back (Answer)

pH = -log [HCO3] *dont forget to balance your equation!!!

#17
Front (Question)

(Ka/Kb x M), take square root, plug into pH or pOH formula accordingly (subtract 14 if Kb/base).

Back (Answer)

Calculating pH given the Moles & Ka/Kb.

#18
Front (Question)

Bases produce ____, acids produce ____.

Back (Answer)

Bases = hydroxide (OH-) Acids = hydronium (H3O+)

#19
Front (Question)

What is a homogenous mixture of 2 or more substances?

Back (Answer)

Solution!

#20
Front (Question)

Where do most chemical reactions take place?

Back (Answer)

In water! *most common and most important

#21
Front (Question)

What is the major component of a mixture?

Back (Answer)

Solvent

#22
Front (Question)

What is the minority component of a mixture?

Back (Answer)

What are two terms that could describe the amount of solute in a solution? It is either ___ or ___.

Back (Answer)

• Concentrated • Diluted

#24
Front (Question)

Blood pH calculation

Back (Answer)

pH = 6.1+ log (HCO3/0.03 x pCO2)
