Q

Difference between PH paper and litmus paper

A

PH paper tells you its PH value and if it is a strong or weak acid/base
Litmus paper only tells you if it is an acid or base

20
Q

Litmus paper rules

A

Blue Litmus Paper :
Turns blue = base
turns red = acid

Red Litmus Paper :
Turns blue = base
turn red = acid

21
Q

Formation of gas using splints

A

Oxygen = glowing splint and it will relight
Carbon Dioxide = burning splint and it will go out
Hydrogen + burning splint and will create mini explosion and pop noise

22
Q

Indicators of a chemical change

A
  1. Change in colour
  2. change is odour
  3. change in temperature
23
Q

A
  • toxic
  • flammable
    -corrosive
    – explosive (contents of container) ^
    explosive (container)
24
Q

what does room 2013 not have
