Solubility in 5% NaHCO3 (aq) and 5% NaOH(Aq)
Compounds that dissolve in sodium bicarbonate (Why?), a weak base,are relatively strong acids. Compounds that dissolve in NaOH(Why?), a strong base, may be either strong or weak acids. Thus,once can distinguish weak and strong acids by determing theirsolubility in both strong and weak bases. Some examples of strongeracids that are soluble in both NaOH and NaHCO3 are: Carboxylicacids (why stronger?), o/p-substituted di and trinitrophenols (whystronger?)

Why do ionic compounds dissolve well in water? Select all that are true.

Question 5 options:

Because water and ionic compounds are both polar

Water molecules have partial charges that attract the ions in the solid compound, causing it to dissociate into separated ions

Because organic compounds are nonpolar

Water molecules can surround an ion, and neutralize the ion's charge using either it's partial positive or negative side.

The individual ions are solvated by water molecules which stabilizes the ions

For conjugate acid-base pairs, how are Ka and Kb related?

Consider the reaction of acetic acid in water:

CH₃CO₂H (aq) + H₂O (l) ⇌ CH₃CO₂⁻ (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq) where Ka = 1.8 × 10⁻⁵

Which two bases are competing for the proton?
Which is the stronger base?
In light of your answer to part b. why do we classify the acetate ion (CH₃CO₂⁻) as a weak base? Use an appropriate reaction to justify your answer.
In general, as base strength increases, conjugate acid strength decreases. Explain why the conjugate acid of the weak base NH₃ is a weak acid.

To summarize, the conjugate base of a weak acid is a weak base and the conjugate acid of a weak base is a weak acid (weak gives you weak). Assuming Ka for a monoprotic strong acid is 1× 10⁶, calculate Kb for the conjugate base of this strong acid.

Why do conjugate bases of strong acids have no basic properties in the water?

List the conjugate bases of the six common strong acids.

To tie it all together, some instructors have students think of Li⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺, Cs⁺, Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺, and Ba²⁺ as the conjugate acids of the strong bases LiOH, KOH, RbOH, CsOH, Ca(OH)₂, Sr(OH)₂, and Ba(OH)₂. Although not technically correct, the conjugate acid strength of these cations is similar to the conjugate base strength of the strong acids. That is, these cations have no acidic properties in water; similarly, the conjugate bases of strong acids have no basic properties (strong gives you worthless). Fill in the blanks with the correct response. The conjugate base of a weak acid is a_____base. The conjugate acid of a weak base is a_____acid. The conjugate base of a strong acid is a_____base. The conjugate acid of a strong base is a_____ acid. ( Hint: Weak gives you weak and strong gives you worthless.)

The Behavior of Substances in Water

Part 1:

Ammonia, NH₃, is a weak electrolyte. It forms ions in solution by reacting with water molecules to form the ammonium ion and hydroxide ion. Write the balanced chemical reaction for this process, including state symbols.
From everyday experience, you are probably aware that table sugar (sucrose), C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁, is soluble in water. When sucrose dissolves in water, it doesn’t form ions through any reaction with water. It just dissolves without forming ions, so it is a nonelectrolyte. Write the chemical equation for the dissolving of sucrose in water.
Both NH₃ and C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ are soluble molecular compounds, yet they behave differently in an aqueous solution. Briefly explain why one is a weak electrolyte and the other is a nonelectrolyte.
Hydrochloric acid, HCl, is a molecular compound that is a strong electrolyte. Write the chemical reaction of HCl with water.
Compare the ammonia reaction with that of hydrochloric acid. Why are both of these substances considered electrolytes?
Explain why HCl is a strong electrolyte and ammonia is a weak electrolyte.
Classify each of the following substances as either ionic or molecular:

KCl
NH₃
CO₂
MgBr₂
HCl
Ca(OH)₂
PbS
HC₂H₃O₂

For those compounds above that, you classified as ionic, use the solubility rules to determine which are soluble.
The majority of ionic substances are solids at room temperature. Describe what you would observe if you placed a soluble ionic compound and an insoluble ionic compound in separate beakers of water.
Write the chemical equation(s), including state symbols, for what happens when each soluble ionic compound that you identified above is placed in water. Are these substances reacting with water when they are added to water?
How would you classify the soluble ionic compounds: strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or nonelectrolyte? Explain your answer.
Sodium chloride, NaCl, is a strong electrolyte, as is hydroiodic acid, HI. Write the chemical equations for what happens when these substances are added to water. m
Are NaCl and HI strong electrolytes because they have similar behavior in an aqueous solution? If not, describe, using words and equations, the different chemical process that takes place in each case.

Part 2:

You have two hypothetical molecular compounds, AX and AY. AX is a strong electrolyte and AY is a weak electrolyte. The compounds undergo the following chemical reactions when added to water.

AX (aq) + H₂O (l) → AH₂O⁺ (aq) + X⁻ (aq)

AY (aq) + H₂O (l) → AH₂O⁺ (aq) + Y⁻ (aq)

Explain how the relative amounts of AX ( aq ) and AY ( aq ) would compare if you had a beaker of water with AX and a beaker of water with AY.
How would the relative amounts of X⁻ ( aq) and Y⁻ ( aq) in the two beakers compare? Be sure to explain your answer.
