H2O   +   H2O   ⇔     H3O+1   +   OH-1    

          [H3O+1][OH-1]    

Kw = ––––––––––––– =  [H3O+1][OH-1] = (1 x 10-7)2 = 1 x 10-14

              [H2O]2

The inverse logarithm, or -log, of [H3O*1][OH1] = 10-14 is pH + pOH = 14
1. What happens to the [H30*1] when base is added to neutral water ?
the [H3O*'] goes
2. What happens to the pH when base is added to neutral water ?
an example of a decreased [H30*1] is [H3O*l] = 1 x 108. Thus pH = -log[108] =
thus, adding acid makes the pH go
3. What happens to the [H3O*1] when base is added to neutral water ?
in the equation [H30*'][OH'] = 1014, when [OH'] increases, the [H3O+11 goes
4. What happens to the pOH when base is added to neutral water ?
when [OH] increases, the pOH goes
since the pOH = -log[OH1]
this can also be seen using pH + pOH = 14
5. What happens to the Kw when base is added to neutral water ?
because it's a constant.
a. down
b. up
c. no change
