Q

Tell me the method for the neutralisation reaction for acids and bases neutralisation reaction

A

measure a volume of HCL into a conical flask
add a fixed mass CaO into HCL
wait for base to completely react and record the PH of the solution using glass rod if u added UI
repeat till unreacted CaO on bottom of flask
Plot graph

Q

Explain a strong acid

A

ionise completely in water as large amounts of acid molecules dissociate to release H+

Q

explain a weak acid

A

do not fully ionise and set up reversible reaction as only few proportion of acids dissociate to release H+
