According to the Arrhenius definition, acids contain _____ and produce ______ and bases contain _____ and produce ______
hydrogen, hydrogen ions, hydroxide, hydroxide ions
What is the equivalence point? What is the end point?
Equivalence point - end of titration (when the known neutralizes the unknown)
End point - when the color of indicator changes
The stronger the conjugate base...
the weaker the acid
Write the Ka expression for the weak acid:
H2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) = HCO3-1(aq) + H3O+1(aq)
