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).

HCl as example
Strong Bronsted-Lowry Base


Accepts protons from water molecules
to form an amount of hydroxide ion,
OH-, equivalent to the amount of base
added.
Example: NH2- (the amide ion)
Question


Can you think of a salt that when dissolved
in water is not an acid nor a base?
Can you think of a salt that when dissolved
in water IS an acid or base?
Weak Bronsted-Lowry acid

One that DOES not donate all of its
acidic protons to water molecules in
aqueous solution.

Example?

Equilibrium
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:
NH3

Kw = [H+][OH-] = 1.01 X 10-14

Example
What is the concentration of OH- in a
solution of water that is 1.0 x 10-3 M in
[H+] (@ 25 oC)?

Is there such a thing as Pure
Water?


In most labs the answer is NO
Why?
CO2 + H2O

HCO3- + H+
A century ago, Kohlrausch and his students
found it required to 42 consecutive
distillations to reduce the conductivity to a
limiting value.

Q: What happens to K when we add, say KNO3 ?
A: Nothing should happen based on our K, our K is
independent of K+ & NO3-

K decreases when an inert salt is added!!! Why?
8-1 Effect of Ionic Strength on
Solubility of Salts

in ‘pure water’. Calculate the concentration

A seemingly strange effect is observed when a salt such as KNO3 is
added. As more KNO3 is added to the solution, more solid dissolves until
[Hg22+] increases to 1.0 x 10-6 M. Why?
Increased solubility

Alright, what do we mean by
Ionic strength?
Ionic strength is dependent on the
number of ions in solution and their
charge.
Ionic strength (m) = ½ (c1z12+ c2z22 + …)

Or Ionic strength (m) = ½ S cizi2
Examples

Calculate the ionic strength of (a) 0.1 M solution of
KNO3 and (b) a 0.1 M solution of Na2SO4 (c) a
mixture containing 0.1 M KNO3 and 0.1 M Na2SO4.
(m) = ½ (c1z12+ c2z22 + …)
Alright, that’s great but how does
it affect the equilibrium constant?

m = ionic strength of solution
g = activity coefficient
Z = Charge on the species x
 = effective diameter of ion
(nm)
2 comments
(1) What happens to g when m approaches zero?
(2) Most singly charged ions have an effective radius of about 0.3 nm
Anyway … we generally don’t need to calculate g – can get it from a table
Activity coefficients are
related to the hydrated
radius of atoms in
molecules
