Arrhenius, Bronsted Lowry, and Lewis Acids and Bases.
Using acid-base titration to find mass of oxalic acid.
Professor Sylvia Ceyer concludes her discussion of acid/base titrations and moves onto the guidelines for assigning oxidation number. After defining the terms oxidation, reduction, oxidizing agent, and reducing agent, Professor Ceyer explains how to balance a redox reaction.
Acetic Acid to Acetyl Chloride mechanism. Can be generalized to forming any acid halide from a carboxylic acid.
Professor Sylvia Ceyer discusses the classification of acids and bases as they are defined by Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lory, and Lewis acid/base. The pH function (and pOH function) are defined as they relate to the strength of acids and bases (in water). Professor Ceyer then runs through the types of acid-base problems and concludes by discussing equilibrium involving weak acids.
Professor Sylvia Ceyer continues her discussion of acid-base equilibrium, diving into buffers. The lecture concludes with the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation and its use in designing a buffer.
Professor Sylvia Ceyer discuses titrations involving a strong acid and a strong base. Defining the point and equivalence and the end point. The lecture continues with a focus on calculating points on a pH curve, specifically calculating pH before the equivalence point, calculating volume of HCl needed to reach equivalence point, and calculating pH after the equivalence point. Finally, Professor Ceyer discusses characteristics of titratio...more
Addition of Water (Acid-Catalyzed) Mechanism.
This lecture completes the first half of the semester by analyzing three functional groups in terms of the interaction of localized atomic or pairwise orbitals. Many key properties of biological polypeptides derive from the mixing of such localized orbitals that we associate with "resonance" of the amide group. The acidity of carboxylic acids and the aggregation of methyl lithium into solvated tetramers can be understood in analogous terms...more
