Further Neutralisation Reactions Flashcards
Metal salt
When the hydrogen part of the acid is replaced by the metal part of the alkali
Neutralisation
A reaction that occurs when the acid is cancelled down by the alkali
What happens when you add a metal carbonate to acid?
Heat is evolved, metal carbonate disappears and effervescence or fizzing is observed.
General equation for acids reacting with carbonates
Acid + Carbonate –> Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide
Reaction equation for carbon dioxide
Calcium Carbonate + Hydrochloric Acid –> Calcium Chloride + Salt Water + Carbon Dioxide
Physical properties of Carbon Dioxide
- Colourless & tasteless gas
- Slightly soluble in water
- Heavier than air
Chemical properties of Carbon Dioxide
- Forks carbonated when reacted with alkalis
- Forms acidic solution when bubbles through water.
Test for Carbon Dioxide
Turns colourless lime water milky white when it is bubbled through
Acid + Alkali –>
Salt + Water
Acid + Base –>
Salt + Water
Acid + Carbonate –>
Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide
Metal + Acid –>
Salt + Hydrogen
Equation for Hydrogen gas
Metal + Acid –> Salt + Hydrogen
