Acidic/basic solutes

Oxide hydrosols synthesis relies on the destabilization of a true solution by a pH change. In order to prepare palladium oxide colloidal particles, two experimental routes can be carried out the neutralization of an acidic (basic) solution by an alkaline (acidic) solution, or thermohydrolysis of the palladium precursor solution. 

The conformational equilibrium of 2-methoxy-1,3-dioxane was studied again both in the gas state (97JMS335) and in acidic/basic solutions (97JA585).

Figure 15.11 shows x-ray diffraction (XRD) profiles of ceria powders produced by precipitation. The XRD data for the synthesized particles show characteristics of Ce02 with a typical fluorite stracture. Since the starting cerium salt was Ce(N03)3, it required the oxidation of Ce + to Ce + in the solution. In this system, there is a possible cause for this oxidation. According to the Lewis definition of acids and bases, Ce is a Lewis base and Ce + is a Lewis acid. Basic solution therefore favors Ce compared with Ce . The crystallite size was calculated from the Scherrer formula ...

Hydrolysis of conjugate base (A ) of weak acid > basic solution and Hydrolysis of conjugate acid (BH ) of weak base > acidic solution. This solution can be basic, neutral, or acidic, depending on which hydrolysis occurs to a greater extent use K, and K, values for the hydrolysis reactions to tell which ion wiU be the dominant fector. (We did not do calculations for this type of salt.)... 

Acidic/Basic Solutes. Reversed-phase separations are conducted as described for neutral solutes with the exception that the aqueous component (or both components) of the mobile phase is modified with acid/base or buffer. Modifying the aqueous phase such that the pH is a minimum of 2 pH units above, or a minimum of 2 pH units below, the solute pRa allows for ionizable compounds to be evaluated in either charge state. For basic compounds, suppression via a change in pH can be more troublesome due to the inherent instability of silica gel in basic media. However, considerable efforts over...

For solutes that are strong acids and bases a third component is often required in the mobile phase. In general, acidic solutes require an acidic additive (like trifluoroacetic acid). Basic solutes require a basic additive (like dimethylethylamine). These additives are mixed with the modifier at 0.1-0.5%. Polar solutes are separated on polar stationary phases (silica, amino, diol, cyano, ethyl pyridine, etc.)... 

For chemical processes, some examples are the elimination of aromatics by sulfonation, the elimination of olefins by bromine addition on the double bond (bromine number), the elimination of conjugated diolefins as in the case of the maleic anhydride value (MAV), and the extraction of bases or acids by contact with aqueous acidic or basic solutions. 

An amino-acid, although insoluble in water (e.g., anthranilic acid), is usually soluble in excess of mineral acid in such a case it is important to make the solution only very slightly acid. This applies also to a mixture of a neutral and a basic substance, from which dil. HCl will extract an amino-acid the solution must then be carefully treated with NaOH to precipitate the amino-acid. 

Solubility in 5 per cent, hydrochloric acid. Add the acid to 0 10 g. of the solid or 0 20 ml. of the liquid in quantities of 1 0 ml. until 3 0 ml. have been introduced. Some organic bases (e.g., p-naphthylamine) form hydrochlorides that are soluble in water but are precipitated by an excess of acid if solution occurs at any time, the unknown is assigned to Group IV. If the compound appears insoluble, remove some of the supernatant liquid by means of a dropper to a semimicro test-tube (75 X 10 mm.), and add 5 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution until basic and observe whether any precipitate is produced the formation of a precipitate will place the compound in Group IV. 

Step 3. The non-steam-volatile compounds. The alkaline solution (82) remaining in the distiUing flask from Step 2 may contain water-soluble, non-volatile acidic, basic or neutral compounds. Add dilute sulphuric acid until the solution is just acid to Congo red, evaporate to dryness, and extract the residual solid with boiling absolute ethyl alcohol extraction is complete when the undissolved salt exhibits no sign of charring when heated on a metal spatula in the Bunsen flame. Evaporate the alcoholic solution to dryness and identify the residue. 

This is my version, but may be better done. First one, evaporate methanol, better with vacuum. Then we have two layers similar in volume, we add 100 of solvent and 50 cc of basic solution (sodium carbonate, bicarbonate or 10 % NaOH ). We shake it and may be we will have little more precipitate or tar. Also may be we can t see separation, then w/e add a bit more solvent without shaking to see separation. We make two more extractions with 50 cc of solvent. Even if we can t see separation, we can add enough HCI and shake, this will forme some tar and layers will be distincts, so we can separate and make a basic wash. Sometimes I ve done first an acid wash, but I can t sure it s better. I m thinking now may be is better to do all extraction as Strike s top 3. Add acid solution, like 250 cc (less PdClz and no CuCI) 15% HCI, extract and make a basic wash.

Step in the dehydration phase is rate determining when the reaction is carried out in acid solution If the solution is too acidic however protonation of the amine blocks step 1 Therefore there is some optimum pH usually about 5 at which the reaction rate is a maximum Too basic a solution reduces the rate of step 4 too acidic a solution reduces the rate of step 1...

The pH of an acidic solution, therefore, must be less than 7.00. A basic solution, on the other hand, will have a pH greater than 7.00. Figure 6.3 shows the pH scale along with pH values for some representative solutions. 

Balance the following redox reactions, and calculate the standard-state potential and the equilibrium constant for each. Assume that the [H3O+] is 1 M for acidic solutions, and that the [OH ] is 1 M for basic solutions. 

For acidic solutions, balance the hydrogen in each half-reaction by adding H3O+ and H2O to opposite sides of the reaction for basic solutions, add OH and H2O to opposite sides of the reaction. 

When the surface conditions are acidic or the ambient humidity is low enough to affect the cure significantly, a surface accelerator may be used to promote the reaction. Available from most manufacturers, these basic solutions may be dip, wipe, or spray appHed. Recentiy, new additive chemistry has been developed that accelerates the cure under adverse conditions without the need for a separate accelerator. 

The AsF ion is very stable toward hydrolysis in aqueous solution. It is not hydroly2ed by boiling a strongly basic solution almost to dryness (26), although it is hydroly2ed in sulfuric acid (27) or in boiling perchloric acid (26). The hydrolysis of AsF in concentrated sulfuric acid (27) and in base (28) at 193—222°C is first order in AsF . The hydrolysis of AsF in alkaline solution is slower than either PF or SbF . ... 

The extent of the initial hydrolysis depends on temperature and how the water is added. Hydrolysis is reduced at slower addition rates and lower temperatures. The hydrolysis subsequent to the initial fast reaction is slow, presumably because part of the acid is converted to fluorosulfate ions which hydrolyze slowly even at elevated temperatures. The hydrolysis in basic solution has also been studied (17). Under controlled conditions, hydrates of HSO F containing one, two, and four molecules of water have been observed (18,19).
