Acid/Base Help Files

Here are some helpful PDF files about ACID/BASE Theory. Everything is catagorized as Type 1 or 2 and the type of species put into solution.

Don't forget the BASICS, know your Strong Acids and Bases

Exam 2 Stuff - Chapter 7 (Zumdahl)

Here's a nice help sheet on the pH and pOH Scales

General Acid/Base Theory - compare the equations used for all acid/base equilibria. (Exam 3 and 4)

Type 1 problems - only ONE species goes into the solution

Weak Acid - only a weak acid (HA) put into solution.

Weak Bases - only a weakbase (B) put into solution.

Salt of a Weak Base - only a salt of a weak base (BHX) put into solution.

Salt of a Weak Acid - only a salt of a weak acid (NaA) put into solution.

Fraction of Species

Exam 3 Stuff - Chapter 8 (Zumdahl)

Type 2 problems - TWO species go into the solution

Weak Acid and its Salt - both a weak acid (HA) and the salt of that weak acid (NaA) put into solution.

Weak Base and its Salt- both a weak base (B) and the salt of that weak base (BHX) put into solution.

Here are two help sheets on Titration Curves
