Question

1. List the six strong acids-name and chemical formula 2. List the six strong bases-name and chemical formula Write the neutralization reaction involving lithium hydroxide (LiOH) and nitric acid (HNO3). 3. . The following substances are contained in a chemical mixture. Select the acid and base that will neutralize first and write the neutralization reaction for those species. mixture contains: HSO4, HF, NH4, OH-, HS, and H20 5. Assuming the base is in a large excess and complet in #4, which acid would be the next to be neutralized in the mixture by that base? List all the remaining acids in order of which will be the next acid to be neutralized

Explanation / Answer

1) strong acid : HClO4 ( perchloric acid) , HCl ( hydrochloric acid) , HNO3 ( Nitric acid) , Sulphuric acid ( H2SO4) , HI ( hydroiodic acid ( HI) , hydrobromic acid ( HBr).

2 ) strong base : LiOH ( lithium hydroxide ) , NaOH ( sodium hydroxide ) , KOH ( potassium hydroxide ) , Ca (OH)2 ( calcium hydroxide , Sr (OH)2 ( strontium hydroxide ) , Ba ( OH ) 2 ( barium hydroxide)

3) LiOH + HNO3 gives LiNO3 + H2O

4) HSO4 - is a conjugate base but it is a weak acid as well because it can still give its hydeogen , HF is a weak acid , NH4+ is a conjugate acid , OH - is basic , HS is acid h2O is amphoteric
