Question

Assignment 1: Theory of Acids and Bases 1. Fill in the chart below by providing simple definitions of Arrhenius and Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases. (4) mbenius's 2. a. Write the correct symbol for the hydrogen ion: b. Write the correct symbol for a hydronium ion. 3. Write the equation for the ionization ofacetic acid. CH,COOH, showing the formation of the hydronium ion. (2) 4. Write the equation ionization of ammonia, NH o showing the formation of the hydroxide ion. (2) 5. Identify the acid, base, conjugate acid and conjugate base. 6. Write the formulas for the conjugate base of each of the following acids. 7. Write the formulas for the conjugate acid of each of the following bases.

Explanation / Answer

1)

Arrhenius acid Forms H+ ions in water

Arrhenius base Forms OH- ions in water

Bronsted lowry acid Donates a proton (H+)

Bronsted lowry base Accepts a proton (H+)

2)

Hydrogen ion H+

Hydronium ion H3O+

3)

CH3COOH (aq) + H2O -----> CH3COO- (aq) + H3O+ (aq)

4)

NH3 + H2O -----> NH4+ + OH-
