To test a diagnosis of diabetic coma, a doctor orders several tests, including the acidity of the patient s blood. Results from this test will be expressed in units of ph. You will learn how the ph scale is used to indicate the acidity of a solution and why the ph scale is used. 1 of 50 Hydrogen Ions from Water Hydrogen Ions from Water The reaction in which water molecules produce ions is called the self-ionization of water. 2 of 50 1
Hydrogen Ions from Water In the self-ionization of water, a proton (hydrogen ion) transfers from one water molecule to another water molecule. 3 of 50 Ion Product Constant for Water Ion Product Constant for Water How are [H + ] and [OH - ] related in an aqueous solution? 4 of 50 2
Ion Product Constant for Water For aqueous solutions, the product of the hydrogen-ion concentration and the hydroxide-ion concentration equals 1.0 10-14. Any aqueous solution in which [H + ] and [OH - ] are equal is described as a neutral solution. 5 of 50 Ion Product Constant for Water The product of the concentrations of the hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions in water is called the ion-product constant for water (K w ). 6 of 50 3
Ion Product Constant for Water An acidic solution is one in which [H + ] is greater than [OH - ]. 7 of 50 Ion Product Constant for Water Unrefined hydrochloric acid, commonly called muriatic acid, is used to clean stone buildings and swimming pools. 8 of 50 4
Ion Product Constant for Water A basic solution is one in which [H + ] is less than [OH ]. Basic solutions are also known as alkaline solutions. 9 of 50 Ion Product Constant for Water Sodium hydroxide, or lye, is commonly used as a drain cleaner. 10 of 50 5
