Ácidos y bases: reacciones químicas y aplicaciones (edX)

Los ácidos y las bases son sustancias muy comunes en el entorno cotidiano (vinagre, bicarbonato, amoniaco, Aspirina®). En este curso se presentan aplicaciones relacionadas con estos conceptos en aspectos tecnológicos, biológicos y de la vida cotidiana.

Los ácidos y las bases son sustancias muy comunes en el entorno cotidiano, con frecuencia las utilizamos sin ser conscientes de que son compuestos con carácter ácido o básico, por ejemplo:

  • el vinagre
  • el bicarbonato
  • la Aspirina®
  • el amoníaco

Los ácidos y las bases tienen un papel fundamental en los sistemas biológicos, están presentes en algunos fenómenos de contaminación ambiental y forman parte de numerosos productos medicinales, domésticos, industriales, etc. En este curso en línea se tratan los aspectos generales de las reacciones ácido-base en medio acuoso, en el contexto de la teoría de Brönsted-Lowry.
En este curso de química se enfatiza en la comprensión del concepto de ácido y de base y su fortaleza, de los pares conjugados ácido-base, de la escala del pH y su determinación experimental, así como de los procesos de neutralización entre ácidos y bases que dan lugar a la formación de las sales. Se aplican estas ideas a los cálculos de pH en disoluciones de diferentes tipos de ácidos y de bases. Se presentan aplicaciones relacionadas con estos conceptos en aspectos tecnológicos, biológicos y de la vida cotidiana
This course is part of the Fundamentos de Química XSeries.
