Reaction of Acids Flashcards
what are metal oxides and metal hydroxides
bases
do metal oxides and metal hydroxides dissolve in water
some do. these soluble compounds are alkalis
alkalis react with acids in neutralisation reactions
reaction of acids and metal oxides and metal hydroxides to form a salt and water
Acid + Metal Oxide – Salt + Water
Acid + Metal Hydroxide – salt + water
what are metal carbonate
also bases, they react with acids to form a salt, water and carbon dioxide
Acids and metal carbonates produce carbon dioxide
Acid + metal carbonate – salt + water + carbon dioxide
how can you make soluble salts using an insoluble base
(learn practical)
calcium carbonate is added to to hydrochloric acid
write a word equation for the reaction that occurs
hydrochloric acid + calcium carbonate – salt + water + carbon dioxide.
