Review and analyze homework problem given 02/27. Introduce the general formula for determining the Ksp. Use specific examples of salt formations and their balanced equilibriums to show how to determine the constants. Define solubility and saturation, show that it is expressed in g/100ml or mol/liter
Review and correct homework questions from missing days. Calculate the pKa, pH, and hydrogen ion concentration of a Boric acid solution on known molarity. The calculation will involve completion. of ICE table along with determination using logs.
List the 4 different categories of acid base reactions . For each one an example of the acid and base. Discuss why each reaction will either be a neutralization, result in an acid solution or alkaline solution, or be determined by the pKa.
Outline and discuss equilibrium constant for acids and bases. Relate to pH of the ionized solution. Discuss pKa of acid mathematically as the negative log. of the Ka..
List and discuss how to determine acidity or alkalinity of a product formed from one of the four acid-base reactions
Introduce the pKa of acids. Discuss it as a way of expressing acid strength other than pH. Show that as the acid strength increases, the pKa becomes smaller. Discuss acid base reactions which occur between: strong acids and strong bases, weak acids and weak bases, strong acids and weak bases, and weak acids and weak bases. Discuss each reaction in terms of Hydronium ion productio and conjugate acids and bases formed.
