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...
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...
Br?nsted–Lowry Acid & Base Theory The Br?nsted-Lowry Theory?defines acids and bases in terms of proton transfer between chemical compounds A?Br?nsted acid?is a species that can donate a ...
