22.4Solubility Equilibria

22.4 Solubility Equilibria Solubility product, ftsp Solubility product, ftsp is the product of the concentrations of each ion in a saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt at 298 K, raised to the power of their relative concentrations For any so called...

22.3Buffer Solutions

22.3    Buffer Solutions What is a buffer solution? A buffer solution is a solution whose pH does not change significantly when small amount of acid or base is added to it   Buffer solutions should therefore contain: large amount of acid to react with the...

22.2Acid-base Titrations

22.1    Acid-base Titrations Titration curves Titration curves or pH curves are curves that show the pH changes during an acid-base titration. Titration curve of a strong acid and strong base titration, take hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide as an example:...

22.1pH, fta, pfta and ftw

22.1 pH, fta, pfta and ftw The ionic product of  water, ftw Water is able to act as an acid as well as a base. Therefore whenever liquid water is present, the following equilibrium occurs 2H2O ⇌ H3O⁺ + OH⁻ Or the more simplified version(Note that H⁺ ≡  H3O⁺): H2O ⇌ H⁺...
