Unit 12 2008- Acids, Bases and Salts

• Three definitions of acids and bases
• Chemical behavior of acids and bases
• What is a salt and how does one form
• The behavior of water as an amphoteric substance
• The ionization constant of water and its relation to pH
• What pH is an indication of
• The relation of pH to concentration for strong acids and bases (how to calculate)
• Titration stoichiometry for strong acids and bases
• Identify acid/base anhydrides and acidic and basic salts
• What is acid rain, how it forms in the atmostshpere

Assignments and Activities

  Readings

  Chapter 9

• Section 2 - Page 250 - 251 - Naming acids. Study the flowchart on page 251.

• Read Pages 910 - 911 in the Math Handbook of the Text. Use Table 4 on page 910 to "check and confirm" you know how to use the log key on your calculator.

  Chapter 19

  • Section 1 - Read and compare with class notes.
  • Section 2 - Read and study definitions for strong and weak acids and bases. Re-read Page 607 and study Figure 19-10.
  • Section 3 - Read and study example problems 19-1,19-2,19-3 and 19-4
  • Section 4 - Read through page 620

Study guide - a bit beyond what we will do (no naming) but everything else is right on target for our class
