Q

How do you test for a carbonate?

A
  • Add an acid, it should fizz as a reaction happens:
    acid + carbonate —–> CO2 + water + salt
  • Test for the CO2 by doing the limewater test, bubble the gas through limewater, if it turns cloudy then it is CO2.

18
Q

What is titration used for with acids and alkalis?

A

To see how much acid is needed to neutralise an alkali.

19
Q

Describe the titration process.

A
  • Put some alkali in a flask with an indicator
  • Add acid to the alkali using a burette, gradually while swirling the flask each time.
  • The indicator will change colour as soon as the acid is neutralised.
  • Measure how much acid was used and record.
  • Repeat
20
Q

What indicator is used in titration?

A

Phenolphthalein or methyl orange

21
Q

Why isn’t universal indicator used in titration?

A

The change in colour would be too gradual, we need an indicator which changes colour right away as soon as the alkali is neutralised.
