Conjugate acids (cations) of strong bases are ineffective bases. * Compiled from Appendix 5 Chem 1A, B, C Lab Manual and Zumdahl 6thEd. The pKa values for organic acids can be found in Appendix II …

Since H+ and any cation from a solvent autodissociation is a Lewis acid, and anything that can add H+ or a solvent-derived cation is a Lewis base, the Lewis acid concept effectively includes the ones …

For our purposes, an acid is a substance that produces hydrogen ion (H+) when dissolved in water. A base is a substance that produces hydroxide ion (OH-‐) when dissolved in water.

3 Schematic representation of an acid–base titration curve for a strong acid (base). The inflection point is at pH = 7.0, where all the excess H+ (acid) or OH– (base) has been consumed.

The names have the general form of hydro(root)ic acid, such as hydrochloric acid. The formulas have the general form of HX(aq) (where X is F, Cl, Br, or I) or H2X(aq) (where X is S or Se) The formulas …

The pH scale ranges from 1 to 14 where 1 to 6 is classified as acidic, 7 neutral (neither a base or an acid) and 8 to 14 is classified as basic. In this lab, you will use the juice from red cabbage as a pH …

Indicators-- An indicator is a special type of compound that changes color as the pH of a solution changes, thus telling us the pH of the solution.
