Identify ions formed in aqueous solution2. Assume cation and anion react with water3. Are either (or both) of these reactionsunrealistic?Predicting acid strength H-X bond polarity and strength, conjugate base stabilityMore oxygens = more acidicLewis acid Electron pair acceptorLewis base Electron pair donorChapter 17Common ion Ion common to 2 solutes, shift in equilibriumcaused by the addition of an ion already present in solutionBuffers Resist pH change when small amounts of acidor base is addedBuffer composition Weak acid + conjugate base or weak base + conjugate acidpH = pKa + log ([base]/[acid]) Henderson – Hasselbach equationChoosing acid base pair 1. Choose acid with pKa closest to desired pH2. Solve Henderson-Hasselbach equationfor [base]/[acid] ratioBuffer capacity Amount of acid or base a buffer can neutralize before pH changes significantly-more concentration buffers have higher capacity-capacity highest when concentrations of conjugates are equalTitration Accurate measurement of volume of solutionrequired to completely react with a sampleEquivalence point Point at which stoichiometrically equivalent quantities of reactant are brought togetherEnd point Point at which indicator changes color, very near equivalence pointCalculating solubility equilibria Use ICE table, molecule is dissociating Ksp = [C]^c [D]^d Solubility productFactors affecting solubility Common ion effect, pH, complex ion formation, amphotorismAmphotorism Will react in both acids and
