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 …

If you add acid to an alkali (ind. = blue), the pH starts at 13 and falls little at first. As you get near to the neutralisation point at pH 7 (ind. = green), the change becomes more dramatic.

According to Brønsted-Lowry: Acids and bases are substances that are capable of donating and accepting protons (hydrogen ions, H+), respectively. An acid-base reaction consists of the transfer of …

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 …

Cells must be slightly alkaline in order to produce acid for function. Interstitial and cellular fluid’s pH must be alkaline for antioxidants to be effective against free radicals.

Write expressions for acidity (KA) and basicity (KB) constants. Understand the conjugate seesaw (KA KB = KW) and related equations (pKA + pKB = pKW) and how to use them problem solving and in …

There are four classes of acid-base reactions: strong acid + strong base, strong acid + weak base, weak acid + strong base, and weak acid + weak base. For each, we will investigate the extent of reaction …
