4 Reactions Of Acids

Question 1

What can acids react with to form salts and water

Answer 1

Bases such as metal oxides or metal hydroxides

Question 2

What does the self formed depend on

Answer 2

The positive ions in the base and the acid it reacts with

Question 3

What does acid reacting with metal carbonates form

Answer 3

Salt water and carbon dioxide

Question 4

How do you make a pure dry sample of a soluble salt from the reaction of an acid with an insolvable oxide or carbonate

Answer 4

• put acid in beaker. Gently warm the dilute acid using a Bunsen burner, then turn off bunsen burner
• at the insoluble reactant and stir (forming a sorrier ball product in the acid as it reacts)
• keep adding the insoluble reactant until it’s in excess(this shows all acid has been neutralise and reaction has finished)
• filter out X historical reactants to get salt solution
• convert into pure solid crystals of salt using crystallisation
