reactions of acids Flashcards
what do all acids produce when they react
they all produce salts when they react
what is a salt
a salt is a compound formed when some or all of the h+ ions of a acid are replaced by a metal or ammonium ions
what salt does hydrochloric acid produce
chloride
what salt does sulfuric acid produce
sulfate
what salt does nitric acid produce
nitrate
a salt is named in two parts whats the first part and whats the second part
the first part is the name of the metal
the second part of the name comes from the acid
The word equations for the main reactions of acids are
- metal + acid → salt + hydrogen
- base (usually a metal oxide or hydroxide) + acid → salt + water
- metal carbonate + acid → salt + water + carbon dioxide
- metal hydrogencarbonate + acid → salt + water + carbon dioxide
with all metal reactions what will happen with the solid
what will the temp be like
the solid will disappear
warm
when gas is in one of these reactions what will be producted
bubbles
if a transition metal reacts with a acid what will be produced
blue
What is observed when solid copper(II) carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid?
Bubbles of gas/effervescence/fizzing
* The solution changes form colourless to blue
* The green solid copper(II) carbonate disappears
* Heat is released
what do acid solutions contain
h+ and a negative ion
the negative ion is what combines with a metal ion
