GRADE 12 – UNIT 1: ACID-BASE EQUILIBRIA

About Course
This unit explores acid-base concepts, including the limitations of the Arrhenius definition and the broader Bronsted-Lowry and Lewis theories. Key topics include the dissociation of water, weak acids, bases, and equilibrium calculations (Ka, Kb, pH, pOH). Students will study the common ion effect, buffer solutions, salt hydrolysis, and acid-base titrations, with real-world examples like buffering in biological systems. Practical skills include solving pH problems, predicting solution properties, and writing balanced chemical equations.
