Strong acids/bases

Determine whether a combination of a strong acid/base and its salt is a buffer. 

Very low solubility, so that it can be reused, and resistance to chemical attack by strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. 

Acid-base Measures acid-base reactions. Strong acids (bases) will tend to change pH weak acids... 

Varies depending on the specific toxin. Some decompose rapidly after they become wet. Many react with strong acids, bases, or oxidizing agents. 

The end point in a titration is a little different from the end of a reaction. What is desired is to know when all the add is titrated. This happens when the titration curve, shown in Figure 10.1, reaches its maximum slope. This change occurs at a pH of 7 for a typical strong acid-base titration), but occurs at pH...

Denaturation is the irreversible precipitation of proteins caused by heating, such as the coagulation of egg white as an egg is cooked, or by addition of strong acids, bases, or other chemicals. This denaturation causes permanent changes in the overall structure of the protein and because of the ease with which proteins are denatured it makes it difficult to study natural protein structure. Nucleic acids also undergo denaturation. 

Strong acids, bases, or oxidizers can cause permanent eye damage, skin bums, and, if swallowed, gastrointestinal damage. Examples of corrosive products include alkaline drain cleaners and oven cleaners, acid-based toilet bowl cleaners and rust removers, concentrated disinfectants, and some concentrated pesticides, especially fungicides. 

Soil-bentonite backfills degrade in the presence of strong acids, bases, salt solutions, and some organic chemicals. 

In summary, the chemistry of ammonia solutions is remarkably parallel to that of aqueous solutions. The principal differences are in the increased basicity of ammonia and its reduced dielectric constant. The latter not only reduces the solubility of iotuc materials, it promotes the formation of ion pairs and ion clusters. Hence even strong acids, bases, and salts are highly associated. 

Because the by-product of the coupling is a strong acid, bases are usually added to die reaction mixture to scavenge it. For example, 4-iodobromobenzene can be coupled with methyl acrylate to give the 4-bromocinnamate ester in >68% yield. This reaction takes advantage of the faster oxidative addition to the carbon-iodine bond to give a single product.

Salts of Strong Acids/Bases Strong acids include HC1 and HN03. Because these are very strong acids, their conjugate bases (CL and N03-) have no base strength. Therefore these ions do not change the pH of a solution.

No strong acids, bases or high temperatures are needed as the enolate intermediate regenerates the reagent 2 so only catalytic weak base is needed. 

Impurities are a lot less problematic for eutectic-based ionic liquids. The strong acid-base nature of these systems leads to predominantly halometallate species which tend to be unaffected by simple salts or other impurities such as water. The strong Lewis acids and bases coordinate well to water and even in the chloroa-luminate systems low amounts of water do not significantly affect voltammetric behavior or have a deleterious effect on deposit morphology. 

In the case of H-SSZ-24, the values of the pre-exponential factor experimentally obtained (see Table 5.4) do not agree with the values theoretically predicted by the equation for a jump diffusion mechanism of transport in zeolites with linear channels, in the case of mobile adsorption [6,26], Furthermore, the values obtained for the activation energies are not representative of the jump diffusion mechanism. As a result, the jump diffusion mechanism is not established for H-SSZ-24. This affirmation is related to the fact that in the H-SSZ-24 zeolite Bronsted acid sites were not clearly found (see Figure 4.4.) consequently p- and o-xylene do not experience a strong acid-base interaction with acid sites during the diffusion process in the H-SSZ-24 channels, and, therefore, the hopping between sites is not produced. 

Unique Capabilities. A number of unique features and capabilities of the p-xylylene polymerization process have been uncovered and elucidated. The reactive monomers will condense and polymerize on any solid surface placed in the condensation (deposition) zone. The chemical nature of the surface is unimportant, and many materials, including strong acids, bases, the alkali metals, metal hydrides, and chemically reactive compounds such as resorcinol, have been coated when placed in a deposition chamber.
