Soluble in water Some bases are soluble in water.


Solubility
They are called alkalis.

Electricity Conductors Conductors

Chemical properties of Acids and Bases
• Litmus is one of the dyes commonly used to distinguish solutions of acids and bases.
• Acidic solutions cause blue litmus paper to turn red ,while Basic solutions cause red litmus paper to turn blue.

3
Hydronium and hydroxide ions
• All water solutions contain hydrogen Ions ( H+) and hydroxide ions (OH -).
• Amounts of the two ions determine whether an aqueous solutions is acidic , basic ,or neutral.

Acidic Solutions Basic solution


OH -
More Hydrogen ions More hydroxide ions
than hydroxide ions than Hydrogen ions

4
The Arrhenius Model
• The Arrhenius Model states that an acid is a substance that contains hydrogen and ionizes to produce hydrogen ions in aqueous solution.

Examples of Arrhenius acids and Bases:-


1)When hydrogen chloride gas dissolves in water , HCL molecules Ionize to form H+ ions ,which make the solution acidic.
HCL(g) H+(aq)+CL-(aq)

2) When the ionic compound sodium hydroxide dissolves in water , It dissociated to produce OH- ions ,which make the solution basic
NaOH(s) Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)

5
The Bronsted-Lowry Model
• The Bronsted-Lowry Model of acids and bases ,an acid is a hydrogen-ion donor.

Hydrogen ion donors and acceptors:-

HX(aq) + H2O(I) = H3O+(aq) + X-(aq)


Acid base conjugate acid conjugate base

Conjugate acids and bases:-


Conjugate acid: is the species produced when a base accepts a hydrogen ion.
Conjugate base: is the species that results when an acid donates a hydrogen ion.
Conjugate acid-base pair; consists of two substances related to each other by the donating and accepting of a
single hydrogen ion.

6
• Ammonia----a Bronsted-Lowery base:-
All acids and bases that fit the Arrhenius definition of acids and bases also conform to the Bronsted-Lowery definition ;however, Some other substances that
lack a hydroxide group and cannot be considered bases according to the Arrhenius definition can be classified as bases according to the Bronsted- Lowery
model. One example of those substances is ammonia(NH3)

Water----a Bronsted-lowery acid and base:-


Depending on what other substances are in the solution, Water can act as either an acid or a base.
Water and other substances that can act as both acids and bases are said to be amphoteric.

7
Lewis model
• Lewis model is an electron-pair acceptor and a Lewis base is an electron-pair donor
This model includes all the substances classified as Bronsted-Lowery acids and bases.

Electron pair donors and acceptors:-


The role of the electron reaction pair is illustrated through the following Lewis structures.
