Bases
Types of Attractions
• Ionic
• Covalent
• Hydrogen
• Van der Waals Forces
– Intermolecular force of attraction
– Due to uneven sharing of electrons in covalent bonds
– Slight attraction between oppositely charged regions of molecules that
are closely packed together
– Holds large molecules together
Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic
Substances
• A hydrophilic substance is one that has an
affinity (likes!) for water
• A hydrophobic substance is one that does
not have an affinity (does NOT like; scared
of) for water
• Mixtures
– physically, not chemically mixed compounds
– Not necessarily evenly distributed
– Homogenous
• Evenly distributed
• Cannot see the different parts
– Heterogenous
• Not uniformly distributed
• you can see the parts
• Solution
– Homogenous Mixture
• components are uniformly distributed
– Solutes and solvents
– Ex. Salt water
• Suspension
– Mixture of water and non-dissolved material
– Some of the most biologically important substances
are both solutions and suspensions
• Ex. blood
How water acts in solution
• Occasionally a water molecule
dissociates (breaks up) into ions
H2O H+ + OH-
This happens to every one water
molecule in a million in pure water…
not very common
– The H+ immediately reacts with
another water molecule in the
solution to make a HYDRONIUM ion
H30+
Acids and Bases
• What do you know?
Acids
• An acid is any substance that increases the H+
concentration of a solution
– ADDS H+ ions to water
– taste sour
– turn cabbage juice red
– turn blue litmus paper red
• Strong acids (LOW pH)
– Dissociate completely in water
– Adds LOTS of H+ ions
– Hydrochloric acid HCl
– HCl H+ and Cl-
• Weak Acids (pH slightly below 7)
– Partially dissociate in water
ions
– Only add a little bit of H+ H O
| //
– Coffee, tomato juice, acetic acid
H --C —C
CH3COOH = CH3COO- + H+ | \\
H O -
Bases
• A base is any substance that reduces the H+ concentration
of a solution
• ADDS HYDROXIDE ions (OH-) to water
– OH- ions bind to any free H+ ions to make…a molecule of
water
– This does what to the concentration of H+ ions ion the
water?\
• DECREASE H+ ion concentration, therefore, making it basic
• Characteristics:
– taste bitter
– feels slimy
– turns cabbage juice yellow, green or blue depending upon
the solution concentration
– turns red litmus paper blue
• Strong Bases (pH High- close to 14)
– Completely dissociate in solution
– Adds LOTS of OH- ion to solutions
– NaOHsodium hydroxide NaOH Na+ and OH-
• Weak Bases
Strong Acids and Bases
H C l - h yd ro ch lo ric LiOH - lithium hydroxide
a cid NaOH - sodium hydroxide
H N O 3 - nitricacid KOH - potassium hydroxide
RbOH - rubidium hydroxide
H 2SO4 - sulfuric CsOH - cesium hydroxide
acid
HBr - hydrobromic
DISSOCIATE COMPLETELY
acid
HI - hydroiodic acid
HClO4 - perchloric
