Unit 14: Acids and Bases
Guiding Questions:
- What is an acid?
- What makes acids dangerous?
- Is acid rain an issue for us?
- What does pH balanced mean?
What you should learn:
- Acids are essential for life, are commonly found in the home, and have a myriad of uses outside the home.
- The strength of an acid is determined by its electron structure
- Acids can cause chemical changes by breaking or weakening chemical bonds.
More Specifically...:
- Properties and Theory (SOL Ch. 4 g)
- List general properties of acids and bases
- Compare Arrhenius and Brönsted-Lowry theories of acids
- Classify acids and bases as Arrhenius or Brönsted-Lowry
- Identify acid base conjugate pairs
- Convert between chemical formula and name using acid naming rules
- Relate the acidic and basic properties of aqueous solutions to the dissociation of water
- Distinguish between strong and weak acids in terms of
- a. degree of ionization/dissociation
- b. conductivity
- c. Ka
- d. pH
- Write and balance neutralization reaction an acid and base react to form a salt and water
- Sketch titration curves and be able to suggest a suitable indicator for a particular titration using a table of indicators
- Distinguish between 'equivalence point' and 'end point'
- List causes and dangers of acid rain
- Math (SOL Ch. 4 g)
- Calculate pH of acids and bases from hydrogen and hydroxide ion concentration (pH = -log[H3O+])
- Convert between pH and pOH
- Calculate unknown concentration using titration data
