Aqueous Solutions of Acids, Bases, and Salts a For each of the following salts, write the reaction that occurs when it dissociates in water: NaCl(s), NaCN(s), KClO2(s), NH4NO3(s), KBr(aq), and NaF(s). b Consider each of the reactions that you wrote above, and identify the aqueous ions that could be proton donors (acids) or proton acceptors (bases). Briefly explain how you decided which ions to choose. c For each of the acids and bases that you identified in pan b, write the chemical reaction it can undergo in aqueous solution (its reaction with water). d Are there any reactions that you have written above that you anticipate will occur to such an extent that the pH of the solution will be affected? As pan of your answer, be sure to explain how you decided. e Assume that in each case above, 0.01 mol of the salt was dissolved in enough water at 25C to make 1.0 L of solution. In each case what additional information would you need in order to calculate the pH? If there are cases where no additional information is required, be sure to state that as well. f Say you take 0.01 mol of NH4CN and dissolve it in enough water at 25C to make 1.0 L of solution. Using chemical reactions and words, explain how you would go about determining what effect this salt will have on the pH of the solution. Be sure to list any additional information you would need to arrive at an answer.
Two strategies are followed when solving for the pH of an acid in water. What is the strategy for calculating the pH of a strong acid in water? What major assumptions are made when solving strong acid problems? The best way to recognize strong acids is to memorize them. List the six common strong acids (the two not listed in the text are HBr and HI). Most acids, by contrast, are weak acids. When solving for the pH of a weak acid in water, you must have the Ka value. List two places in this text that provide Ka values for weak acids. You can utilize these tables to help you recognize weak acids. What is the strategy for calculating the pH of a weak acid in water? What assumptions are generally made? What is the 5% rule? If the 5% rule fails, how do you calculate the pH of a weak acid in water?
