Acid Base Reactions k1 RCOOH RCOO- + H+ k-1
Naproxen Physical Properties • Solubility of free acid [HA]o=1.37x10-4M • Mw=230.36 • [HA]o = 315.6 gm/L. =0.315 mg/ml • pKa= 4.57 • How long does it take a small particle ~ 0.1mm in radius to dissolve (in acid)?
What does ionization of the acid do?Let’s start with a film model Cs SS C=0 h
At the interface the ionization increases the solubility and we have HA, A- and H+ diffusing species. A- Cs H+ C=0 HA h
Assumptions • Stagnant fluid vi=0 • Steady State dC/dt = 0 • One dimensional
Acid Base Reaction Terms k1 RCOOH RCOO- + H+ k-1
Add Equations HAtot Htot
Now add Boundary Conditions Interface BC’s HA=HA0= solubility KA = H+ A -/HA dH+ /dx=dA - /dx=0 (can not penetrate boundary) Solid Bulk: HA=0 A - = 0 H +=H + bulk x 0 h
Solve these equations: Key assumptions • Equilibrium rate constants are fast relative to diffusion • Equal diffusivities • Equal film thickness
Conclusion • Ionization at the interface accelerated dissolution…due to added species (A-) • The effect can be orders of magnitude. pH=pKa +2 ~ 102 increase in rate

Let’s do one Phase (Olander reference) Material A diffuses into film m’ and can react to form E in film
