Concept Review:
16.6/16.7 Weak Acids and Bases
Write out the chemical equation and Ka equation for dissociation of an acid and a separate one for bases (Kb.)
Strong acids have ______conjugate bases. Weak acids have ______conjugate bases.
T / F A large Ka value means the acid is weak
T / F A large pKa value means the acid is weak
T / F Small % ionization means the acid is weak. Write out the % ionization equation:
T / F The first proton in a polyprotic species is harder to remove than the second (What do we know about the acidity of each of these H’s) When can we treat them as monoprotic?
Given pH values in weak acid problems tell you about initial OR equilibrium conditions? How do you get to concentration from pH? Which concentration(s) does this tell you?
Given a Ka value and initial concentration of a weak acid, what can we find? What assumptions might we make? How do we check their validity?
What are some helpful things to write down when solving weak acid/base problems? (Discuss with a partner how you approach them!)
