Topic 3 Chemical Changes(complete) Flashcards
Solutions with ph lower than 7 are
Acids
Solutions with ph higher than 7 are
Alkaline
Neutral solution has ph of
7
Acids form what ions in water
H+
Alkalis form what ions in water
OH-
Stronger acids have higher/lower ph
Weaker acids have higher/lower ph
Stronger acids lower
Weaker acids higher
Stronger alkalis have higher/lower ph
Weaker alkalis have higher/lower ph
Stronger alkalis higher
Weaker alkalis lower
What colour is litmus in acidic ,alkaline and neutral solutions
Acidic red
Neutral purple
Alkaline blue
What colour is methyl orange in acidic ,alkaline and neutral solutions
Acidic red
Neutral yellow
Alkaline yellow
What colour is phenolphthalein in acidic ,alkaline and neutral solutions
Acidic colourless
Neutral colourless
Alkaline pink
If the concentration of H+ ions increase what happens to the ph
Ph will decrease
If the concentration of OH- ions increase what happens to the ph
Ph will increase
As the concentration of h+ ions increases or decreases by factor of 10 how much will ph change
Ph will increase or decrease by 1
If an acid is concentrated what does it mean
Means there is more acid per volume of water
Dilute acid meaning there is less acid per volume of water
What does it mean for an acid to be strong or weak
Strong acids dissociate completely in water to release H+ ions
Weak acids don’t dissociate completely in water
What is a base
Substance that reacts with an acid to produce salt and water
Alkalis are soluble bases
HCl + NaOH —> NaCl + H20
Acid + base —> Salt + Water
H+ + OH- —> H20
What is a salt
An ionic compound
Metal and non metal
Eg NaCl
Acid + Metal Oxide—->?
Salt +Water
