WS #1 Conjugate Acid-Base Pairs
Make some brief notes on the commercial base NaOH - five common uses.
Describe the difference between a concentrated and dilute acid (hint: concentration refers to
the molarity). Describe their relative conductivities.
Concentrated means relatively high molarity and dilute means relatively low molarity.
Describe the difference between a strong and weak acid (p 121-124). Use two examples and
write equations to support your answer. Describe their relative conductivities.
A strong acid completely ionizes and a weak acid partially ionizes.
Describe a situation where a strong acid would have the same conductivity as a
weak acid (hint: think about concentration).
A weak acid could have a high molarity and the strong acid could have a low molarity.
Complete this worksheet for next period. Read pages 107-126 for homework.

19. Why is it impossible to write an equilibrium expression for a strong acid? Ka =
[H3O+] [Cl-] [HCl]
is equal to zero and in math numbers divided by zero are
undefined. [HCl]
20. Which acids are weak?
All acids listed on the acid chart below the top six.
23. What does the term weak acid mean?
Incomplete ionization. Such as: HF + H2O ⇄ F- + H3O+
24. Explain the difference between a strong and weak acid in terms of electrical conductivity.
A strong acid is a good conductor. A weak acid conducts but not so good.
