Q

Test for iodide ions

A

Add silver nitrate
Yellow precipitate formed
When added to dilute and concentrated ammonia precipitate remains

17
Q

How does the equation showing the dissociation of acids

A

strong acids fully dissociate so reaction is one way:
HCl –> H+ + Cl-
weak acids partially dissociate so reaction is reversible:
CH3COOH CH3COO- + H+

18
Q

Coomon Alkalis

A

Sodium Hydroxide NaOH
Potassium Hydroxide KOH
Ammonia NH3

19
Q

Types of bases

A

Metal Hydroxides - OH- can accept 1 H+ ion to form water

Metal Oxides - Can accept 1 H+ ion to form a hydroxide or 2 to form water

20
Q

Ammonia as a base and alkali

A

Ammonia is an alkali as it’s soluble in water however can act as a base as it contains a nitrogen with a lone pair of electrons which can form a bond with a H+ ion to form NH4+

21
Q

how can water act as an acid and a base

A

Water can act as an acid as it can donate a H+ ion:
H2o -> OH- + H+

Water can also act as a base by accepting a H+ ion:
H2O + H+ -> H3O+ (hydronium ion)

22
Q

Acid + Alkali

A

Salt + Water

23
Q
