Acids and bases Flashcards
strong acids vs weak acids in water
strong acids will completely ionize
weak acids partially ionize
what are the weak acids?
what are the strong acids?
Acetic,
what is a concentrated solution?
A concentrated solution is a solution that has a large amount (number of moles) of acid per Litre of solution
what is a diluted
A dilute solution has few moles of acid per Litre
what is the product between an acid and a carbonate?
Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide
what is neutralisation
A neutralisation reaction is one in which a base reacts with an acid.
what is an indicator?
Indicators are substances whose solutions change color due to changes in the acidity levels of solutions (changes in pH).
what are the products of acids and metal hydroxides?
Acid + Metal Hydroxide → Salt + Water
what are the products of acids and metals?
Acid + Metal → Salt + Hydrogen Gas
what are the products of acids and metal oxides?
Acid + Metal Oxide → Salt + Water
what are examples of indicators used
what is an acid
is a proton donor
what is a base?
is a proton acceptor
what is pH
pH is a measure of the concentration of hydronium ions in solution (H3O+).
