Acids Alkalis And PH Flashcards
1
Q
On the PH scale what number is neutral (water and blood)
A
7
2
Q
What PH levels are acids found in?
A
Less than 7
Acids also form hydrogen ions when dissolved in water
3
Q
What PH are alkalis found in?
A
Above 7
Alkalis also form hydroxide ions when dissolved in water
4
Q
What happens when you combine acids and alkalis together?
A
You get a neutral substance because there ions (H+ and OH-) combine to form H2O (water) and water is a neutral substance meaning the acid and alkali neutralize one another
5
Q
What are the types of acids and the salts that result from them?
A
Hydrochloric acid-chlorine
Nitric acid-nitrate
Sulfuric acid-sulfate
6
Q
What are soluble salts?
A
Salts that dissolve in water
