Q

What is a Base?

A

A base is a metal oxide or metal hydroxide which reacts with an acid producing a salt and water

20
Q

What is a soluble base?

A

Alkali is a solube base

21
Q

Define neutralisation

A

when an acid and a base react to form water and a salt and involves the combination of H+ ions and OH- ions to generate water

22
Q

What type of reactions are neutralization reactions

A

Exothermic

23
Q

Name the 4 types of Acid Reactions

A

Acid + Alkali—–> Salt + Water
Metal + Acid—-> Salt + Hydrogen
Metal Carbonate + Acid—–> Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide
Acid + Ammonia —> Ammonium Salt

24
Q

How to Test for Carbon Dioxide?

A

Bubble the gas into colorless limewater(calcium hydroxide solution)
it will turn milky if the gas in carbon dioxide
