Section A: Summary Notes
Acids and Bases - Calculations
Neutralisation Reaction
Neutralisation is the reaction between an acid and a base. The end point is reached when the acid
and base are chemically equivalent.
An indicator is used during neutralisation reactions to show the end point. An indicator is an organic
compound which turns a specific colour in an acid or base and at a specific pH.
Titration is the name given to process of performing a neutralisation reaction.
Concentration
-3
The unit of concentration is mol.dm , which is also written as M (stated as molar)
A concentrated acid or base contains a large quantity of solute (acid or base) per volume of solution.
A dilute acid or base contains a small quantity of solute (acid or base) per volume of solution.
Calculations
When a solution is diluted, the number of moles of the original solution stays the same even though
the volume of the solution changes. The following equation is used.
-3
c1 = concentration of solution 1 (mol.dm )
-3
𝑐1 𝑉1 = 𝑐2 𝑉2
c2 = concentration of solution 2 (mol.dm )
3
V1 = volume of solution 1 (dm )
3
V2 = volume of solution 2 (dm )
For a titration reaction the following equation is used.
na = number of moles of acid (mol)
nb = number of moles of base (mol)

Vb = volume of base (dm )
pH calculations
The pH of a solution is an indication of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. It is the negative
logarithm of the hydronium ion concentration in a solution.
𝑝𝐻 = = log 𝐻 +

If the pH is known, [H ] is found by:

[H ] = concentration of H or H3O ions
𝐻 + = 10βˆ’π‘π»
Water undergoes auto-ionisation or auto-protolysis, in which a proton is transferred from one water
molecule to another. This can be shown in the following equation:
π‡πŸ 𝐎 𝓡 + π‡πŸ 𝐎 𝓡 β‡Œ π‡πŸ‘ 𝐎+ 𝐚πͺ + πŽπ‡ βˆ’ (𝐚πͺ)
From this equation we get the equilibrium constant for this reaction, which is known as the
+
dissociation constant for water: Kw = [H3O ][OH ]
At 25 C, K w = H3 O+ OH βˆ’ = 1 × 10βˆ’14 , which means in a neutral solution that [H3O ] = [OH ] = 1 x

Hydrolysis
When an acid and a base react together one of the products formed is a salt. The salt will be neutral
if a strong base and strong acid are reacted together. However, if the acid and base are not of
comparable strengths then the salt formed will either be acidic or basic, depending on how it dissolves
in water.
Hydrolysis is the ability of the ions to react with the water molecules, thus altering the pH.
Salt in water
Example
Salt of strong acid and strong
base
NaCl
Salt of strong acid and weak
base
Salt of weak acid and strong
base
pH in aqueous
solution
pH = 7
(HCl& NaOH)
NH4Cl
pH < 7
(HCl& NH3)
(acidic)
CH3COONa
pH > 7
(CH3COOH & NaOH)
(basic)
Example:
Consider the salt NH4Cl.
-
This salt is made from the reaction between NH3 (weak base) and HCl (strong acid). The Cl ions will
not react with the water molecules in the solution. But the 𝑁𝐻4+ ions will react with water according to
the following equation:
𝑁𝐻4+ + 𝐻2 𝑂 β‡Œ 𝑁𝐻3 + 𝐻3 𝑂+
+
Thus an excess of H3O ions are created and the solution will be acidic.
