Concept introduction:
Acid–base reactions are the reactions in which the acid reacts with the base and tend to neutralize the effect of each other by producing a salt. In the esterification of 3-methylbutyl ethanoate from acetic acid and 3-methyl-1-butanol in the presence of a sulfuric acid catalyst, the ester portion remains in the organic layer on top, whereas water and alcohol constitute the aqueous inorganic layer below, because ester is less denser than water. The impurities, ethanoic acid, and sulfuric acid are removed by treating it with sodium bicarbonate whereas, alcohol is taken up by water.

An analytical chemist is titrating 109.1 mL of a 0.8800M solution of piperidine (C5H₁NH) with a 0.8300M solution of HNO3. The p K of
piperidine is 2.89. Calculate the pH of the base solution after the chemist has added 132.9 mL of the HNO3 solution to it.
Note for advanced students: you may assume the final volume equals the initial volume of the solution plus the volume of HNO3 solution added.

- For conjugate acidbase pairs, how are Ka and Kb related? Consider the reaction of acetic acid in water CH3CO2H(aq)+H2O(l)CH3CO2(aq)+H3O+(aq) where Ka = 1.8 105 a. Which two bases are competing for the proton? b. Which is the stronger base? c. In light of your answer to part b. why do we classify the acetate ion (CH3CO2) as a weak base? Use an appropriate reaction to justify your answer. In general, as base strength increases, conjugate acid strength decreases. Explain why the conjugate acid of the weak base NH3 is a weak acid. To summarize, the conjugate base of a weak acid is a weak base and the conjugate acid of a weak base is a weak acid (weak gives you weak). Assuming Ka for a monoprotic strong acid is 1 106, calculate Kb for the conjugate base of this strong acid. Why do conjugate bases of strong acids have no basic properties in water? List the conjugate bases of the six common strong acids. To tie it all together, some instructors have students think of Li+, K+, Rb+, Cs+, Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+ as the conjugate acids of the strong bases LiOH, KOH. RbOH, CsOH, Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, and Ba(OH)2. Although not technically correct, the conjugate acid strength of these cations is similar to the conjugate base strength of the strong acids. That is, these cations have no acidic properties in water; similarly, the conjugate bases of strong acids have no basic properties (strong gives you worthless). Fill in the blanks with the correct response. The conjugate base of a weak acid is a_____base. The conjugate acid of a weak base is a_____acid. The conjugate base of a strong acid is a_____base.
