Weak Acid - Strong Base Titration In this example, strong sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq), is being added to weak ethanoic acid, CH3COOH (aq) NaOH (aq) + CH3COOH (aq) → CH3COONa (aq) + H2O (l) T...
Action of a Buffer Solution A buffer solution is a solution which resists changes in pH when small amounts of acids or alkalis are added A buffer solution is used to keep the pH almost const...

Drawing & Interpreting Titration Curves During a titration a pH meter can be used and a pH curve plotted A pH curve is a graph showing how the pH of a solution changes as the acid (or ba...
Measuring and Comparing pH Strong and weak acids The relative strengths of different acids can be determined by measuring the pH of equimolar aqueous solutions of the acids, at the same temp...
Ionic Product of Water, Kw In all aqueous solutions, an equilibrium exists in water where a few water molecules dissociate into protons and hydroxide ions We can derive an equilibrium consta...
Acid Dissociation Strong acids A strong acid is an acid that dissociates almost completely in aqueous solutions HCl (hydrochloric acid), HNO3 (nitric acid) and H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) The posi...
Defining pH The acidity of an aqueous solution depends on the number of H+ ions in solution The pH is defined as: pH = -log[H+] where [H+] is the concentration of hydrogen ions in mol dm–3 S...
Brønsted–Lowry Acid & Base Theory The Brønsted-Lowry Theory defines acids and bases in terms of proton transfer between chemical compounds A Brønsted acid is a species that can donate a ...
