Chapter 8- Material Changes chapter 9- The earth Flashcards
What are acids and alkalis
Liquids
What is an indicator
A liquid which produces a particular color if it is mixed with an acid or an alkali
Study the indicator acid and alkali table in your photos
How well did u know it
There are two types of litmus paper then which one is used for acid and which one is used for alkalis
Blue is for acids, red is for alkalis
What’s the letters P & H stand for
Power of hydrogens
What is hydrogen found in? and what does it do in what it is found in
Acids,I played as an active part in the chemical reactions
Describe what the letters on the pH scale Stand for
0-2 strong acids 3-6 weak acid 7- neutral 8-11 weak alkali 12-14 strong alkali
Study the diagram in your camera roll on the pH scale
How well did you know it
When does neutralization occur
We are in an accident alkali take part in a chemical reaction, salt is formed
What is the general word equation for naturalization
Acid+alkali —> salt+water
Go look in your photos and memorize some basic word equations
How old did you know them
What is added to soil To neutralize it’s acidity
Calcium hydroxide
What does sodium hydrogen carbonate dissolve into water to produce
An alkaline solution look at this word equation in your phone
What is used in indigestion tablets when there is too much acid in the stomach
Sodium hydrogen carbonate
What are a few things sodium hydrogen carbonate is used in
Baking powder, fire extinguishers, indigestion tablets
What type of chemical reactions take in heat?
Endothermic reactions
What chemical reactions give out heat
Exothermic reactions
When a chemical reaction is not useful
When oxygen reacts with oils and food and makes them smell bad, it can make metals weaker, call dust and flour mix with oxygen in the end become hot they can cause explosions
Describe the endothermic reaction burning
A substance burns it reacts with oxygen in the air this reaction releases heat. Fuel’s such as wood, coal, oil and natural gas are burnt to provide heat for cooking, warming houses and making steam in power stations to generate electricity, carbon dioxide and water are produced when fuels are burnt
Explain the Exothermic reaction respiration
Expiration is the process in which energy is released from food. It takes place in the bodies of all living things. The word equation is glucose plus oxygen —>Carbon dioxide plus water
The energy is used for making substances needed in the body for growth and in animals it is used by muscles to allow movement
Explain the endothermic reaction rusting
When iron and oxygen react In an oxidation process to produce rest, heat is given out. In hand warmers this heat is held by a bag which can be used to warm the body
Different metals react at different speeds when they react with…
Other chemicals
What happens when oxygen is heated with sodium
It bursts into flames and burns quickly to form a white powder
