Question

find out the acids and bases present in given salts?-NACL,NA²SO⁴,KCL,CUCL²​

Answer 1

Answer:

Define a strong and a weak acid and base.

Recognize an acid or a base as strong or weak.

Determine if a salt produces an acidic or a basic solution.

Except for their names and formulas, so far we have treated all acids as equals, especially in a chemical reaction. However, acids can be very different in a very important way. Consider HCl(aq). When HCl is dissolved in H2O, it completely dissociates into H+(aq) and Cl−(aq) ions; all the HCl molecules become ions:

HCl → H+(aq) + Cl−(aq) (100%)

Any acid that dissociates 100% into ions is called a strong acid. If it does not dissociate 100%, it is a weak acid. HC2H3O2 is an example of a weak acid:

HC2H3O2→ H+(aq) + C2H3O2−(aq) (~5%)

Because this reaction does not go 100% to completion, it is more appropriate to write it as an equilibrium:

HC2H3O2 ⇄ H+(aq) + C2H3O2−(aq)

As it turns out, there are very few strong acids, which are given in Table 12.2 “Strong Acids and Bases”. If an acid is not listed here, it is a weak acid. It may be 1% ionized or 99% ionized, but it is still classified as a weak acid.

The issue is similar with bases: a strong base is a base that is 100% ionized in solution. If it is less than 100% ionized in solution, it is a weak base. There are very few strong bases (see Table 12.2 “Strong Acids and Bases”); any base not listed is a weak base. All strong bases are OH– compounds. So a base based on some other mechanism, such as NH3 (which does not contain OH− ions as part of its formula), will be a weak base.
