Relating Strength and Equilibrium
What do the Ka and Kb tell us about strength?
A large Ka means
the reaction
“lies to the
right”.
There is a large
ratio of products
: reactants.
For acid and base
reactions, the
products are
the dissociated
ions.
The more
dissociated ions,
the stronger the
acid or base.
31/71
The larger the Ka or Kb, the stronger the acid or base.
Strength and Conjugates
How does the strength of a species relate to the
strength of its conjugate?
If it donated the
A strong acid
donates it’s
proton easily.
After donating
the proton, it
then becomes
a (conjugate)
base.
If it donated the
proton easily, it
will not easily
grab and hold
onto another
one.
It will be a weak
base.

Acid-Base
Properties of Salts
41/71
How Salts Have Acid/Base Properties
Understanding conjugates is a key to understanding
acid/base properties of salts.
A weak acid has
a strong
conjugate
base that can
form salts.
That strong
conjugate
base will
produce a
basic solution.
Salts made from
the conjugate
of a weak acid
will have a
basic pH.
42/71
The opposite is also true: Salts made from the conjugate of a
weak base will be acidic.

Definition - Buffer
Buffer – Solution containing a weak acid
or base and its conjugate that resistsj g
change in pH levels.
e.g. H3PO4 (weak acid) and PO4
3- (conjugate base)
Conjugates are added in the form of a salt
45/71
j g
(soluble ionic compound).
e.g. To add PO4
3- to a buffer, Na3PO4 salt is added.
How Does a Buffer Work?
Buffer: Weak Acid and
conjugate base
How does a buffer resist pH changes?
Conjugate base “absorbs”
acid and produces more weak
acid already in buffer.
Strong Acid added
Weak acid “absorbs” base and
produces more conjugate base
already in buffer.
Strong Base added
Eventually, so much strong acid or base could be added and all of
46/71
the buffer material would be used up.
Buffer Capacity – Amount of strong acid or base
that can be absorbed without large pH change.

Definition - Common Ion Effect
Common Ion Effect – Effect an ion has on
the pH of an acidic or basic solution
containing the same ion.
59/71
Example: Adding NaCH3COO will affect the pH of
a solution of CH3COOH as they have a common
ion (CH3COO-).
Common Ion and Le Chatelier
Le Chatelier’s Principle says that adding a product will
push the reaction towards the reactants.
CH COOH (aq) + H O (l) H O+ (aq) + CH COO- (aq)CH3COOH (aq) + H2O (l) H3O (aq) + CH3COO (aq)
Adding the
common ion
(CH3COO-)
would push
the reaction
Fewer acid
molecules are
dissociated,
so there are
fewer H O+
pH will be higher
(less acidic)
with this
common ion
than without
60/71
back to the
reactants.
fewer H3O
ions.
than without.
Bases would work the opposite - adding the common ion of a
base would cause the solution to be “less basic” (have a lower
pH).

Solving Common Ion Problems
Common Ion problems are like weak acid problems -
except you have an initial amount of the conjugate.
Example: Find the pH of a 0.25 M solution of CH3COOH

Multiple Choice Questions
Acid/base multiple choice questions tend to be more
qualitative.
Example: How can 100 mL of a 0.10 M basic solution with pH of
13.00 become a solution with a pH of 12.00?
A. Diluting solution with 8 more mL of distilled water
B. Diluting solution with 100 mL more of distilled water
C. Diluting solution with 900 mL more of distilled water
D. Adding 100 mL of 0.10 HA
E. Adding 100 mL of 0.10 base
65/71
pH is a log base 10 scale.
1 change in pH = 10 x change in acidity
You want the solution to be diluted by 1/10.
Making a 100 mL solution into a 1000 mL solution is a 1/10 dilution.
Answer: C
Free Response Questions
An acid-base free response question may contain sub-
questions such as:
a. Describe the features of the titration curve that indicate the acid is a
k idweak acid
b. Describe one way in which the acid dissociation constant can be
determined from the titration curve
c. A 25 mL sample of 0.10 M HA is titrated with 0.35 M NaOH
I. What is the volume of NaOH needed to reach the equivalence
point?
II. Is the pH at this equivalence point above or below 7?

Answering Free Response Questions
a. Describe the features of the titration curve that indicate the acid
is a weak acid.
Weak acids begin at a higher pH and have a less defined
inflection point The stoichiometric point will be above pH
b. Describe one way in which the acid dissociation constant can be
determined from the titration curve.
