NH_4OH(aq) -> NH_4^+(aq) + OH^(-)(aq) When ammonium hydroxide is dissolved in water, the ion-water attraction overcomes the attraction between ions, so it dissociates into the ammonium cation and hydroxide anion. To be clear, H+ itself would be just an isolated proton

Salts such as \(\ce{K_2O}\), \(\ce{NaOCH3}\) (sodium methoxide), and \(\ce{NaNH2}\) (sodamide, or sodium amide), whose anions are the conjugate bases of species that would lie below water in Table \(\PageIndex{2}\), are all strong bases that react essentially completely (and often violently) with water, accepting a proton to give a solution of \(\ce{OH^{}}\) and the corresponding cation: \[\ce{K2O(s) + H2O(l) ->2OH^{}(aq) + 2K^{+} (aq)} \nonumber\], \[\ce{NaOCH3(s) + H2O(l) ->OH^{}(aq) + Na^{+} (aq) + CH3OH(aq)} \nonumber\], \[\ce{NaNH2(s) + H2O(l) ->OH^{}(aq) + Na^{+} (aq) + NH3(aq)} \nonumber\].

If we add Equations \(\ref{16.5.6}\) and \(\ref{16.5.7}\), we obtain the following (recall that the equilibrium constant for the sum of two reactions is the product of the equilibrium constants for the individual reactions): \[\cancel{HCN_{(aq)}} \rightleftharpoons H^+_{(aq)}+\cancel{CN^_{(aq)}} \;\;\; K_a=[H^+]\cancel{[CN^]}/\cancel{[HCN]}\], \[\cancel{CN^_{(aq)}}+H_2O_{(l)} \rightleftharpoons OH^_{(aq)}+\cancel{HCN_{(aq)}} \;\;\; K_b=[OH^]\cancel{[HCN]}/\cancel{[CN^]}\], \[H_2O_{(l)} \rightleftharpoons H^+_{(aq)}+OH^_{(aq)} \;\;\; K=K_a \times K_b=[H^+][OH^]\].

If both the Lewis acid and base are uncharged, the resulting bond is termed semipolar or coordinate, as in the reaction of boron trifluoride with ammonia: Frequently, however, either or both species bears a charge (most commonly a positive charge on the acid or a negative charge on the base), and the location of charges within the adduct often depends upon the theoretical interpretation of the valences involved. similar to the case with sucrose above.

For many practical purposes, the molality (mol solute/kg water) and molar (mol solute/L solution) concentrations can be considered as nearly equal at ambient temperature and pressure if the solution density remains close to one (i.e., sufficiently diluted solutions and negligible effect of temperature changes). Thus some dissociation can occur because sufficient thermal energy is available. This means that if we add 1 mole of the pure acid HA to water and make the total volume 1 L, the equilibrium concentration of the conjugate base A - will be smaller (often much smaller) than 1 M/L, while that of undissociated HA will be only slightly less than 1 M/L. 0000002182 00000 n
Acetic acid as we have just seen is a molecular compound that is weak acid and electrolyte. Because the initial quantity given is \(K_b\) rather than \(pK_b\), we can use Equation \ref{16.5.10}: \(K_aK_b = K_w\). H As an example, let's calculate the pH of a 0.030 M

Note that water is not shown on the reactant side of these equations
The two molecular substances, water and acetic acid, react to form the polyatomic ions
between ammonia and water. All of these processes are reversible. For example, the general equation for the ionization of a weak acid in water, where HA is the parent acid and A is its conjugate base, is as follows: \[HA_{(aq)}+H_2O_{(l)} \rightleftharpoons H_3O^+_{(aq)}+A^_{(aq)} \label{16.5.1} \] 0000239563 00000 n

As we noted earlier, the concentration of water is essentially constant for all reactions in aqueous solution, so \([H_2O]\) in Equation \ref{16.5.2} can be incorporated into a new quantity, the acid ionization constant (\(K_a\)), also called the acid dissociation constant: \[K_a=K[H_2O]=\dfrac{[H_3O^+][A^]}{[HA]} \label{16.5.3}\]. All acidbase equilibria favor the side with the weaker acid and base.

No acid stronger than \(H_3O^+\) and no base stronger than \(OH^\) can exist in aqueous solution, leading to the phenomenon known as the leveling effect.

Just as with \(pH\), \(pOH\), and \(pK_w\), we can use negative logarithms to avoid exponential notation in writing acid and base ionization constants, by defining \(pK_a\) as follows: Similarly, Equation \ref{16.5.10}, which expresses the relationship between \(K_a\) and \(K_b\), can be written in logarithmic form as follows: The values of \(pK_a\) and \(pK_b\) are given for several common acids and bases in Table \(\PageIndex{1}\) and Table \(\PageIndex{2}\), respectively, and a more extensive set of data is provided in Tables E1 and E2.
