2.3.3a Classifying Solutions of Electrolytes

Activity

1. Briefly describe the following

a. weak electrolyte

A weak electrolyte is an electrolyte that does not completely dissociate in aqueous solution.

b. strong electrolytes

A strong electrolyte is a solution/solute that completely, or almost completely, ionizes or dissociates

in a solution.

2.3.3b Acids and Bases

Activity;

1. Briefly describe the following.

a. bronsted-lowry base

A Brønsted-Lowry base is any species that is capable of accepting a proton, which requires a lone pair of
electrons to bond to the H+ .

b. the conjugate acid of a bronsted-lowry base

The conjugate acid of a Brønsted-Lowry base is the species formed after a base accepts a proton.

2. Identify the acid on the left and its conjugate base on the right in the following equations:

a. 2HCO 3 - ↔ H 2 CO 3 + CO 3 2-

Acid: HCO3

Conjugate base: CO32-

b. HONH 2 + H 2 O ↔ HONH 3 + + OH –

Acid: H2O

Conjugate base: OH-

3. Identify the base on the left and its conjugate acid on the right. Refer to equation # 2
a. 2HCO 3 - ↔ H 2 CO 3 + CO 3 2-

Base: HCO3

Conjugate Acid: H2CO3

b. HONH 2 + H 2 O ↔ HONH 3 + + OH –

Base: HONH3
