Topic 4 - Acids Flashcards
Indicators ×3
Litmus - Red Blue
Methyl orange - Red Orange Yellow
Phenolphthalein - Colourless Pink
Metals Reactions ×5
\+ Metal - H2 \+ Metal oxides - H2O \+ Metal hydroxides - H2O \+ Metal carbonate - CO2 + H2O \+ Metal hydrocarbonate - CO2 +H2O
Ionization
Ionize in H2O
Give H+ - responsible for acidic properties
Fizzy drink component
Solid acid
Solid NaHCO3
Base defination
Reacts with acid that forms salt and water only
Reaction of alkali ×4
Neutralization
+CO2 -> Metal carbonate + H2O (eg limewater)
Alkali + NH4+ -> NH3 + salt + H2O
Metal ions + OH- -> Metal Hydroxide
Alkali in water
Dissociation
Not ionization
Except ammonia
Covalent - ionization
Corrosive
HCl
H2SO4
HNO3
HCl: white fume
HNO3: Yellow on storage -decompose to NO2
H2SO4: liquid
Involatile
Dehydrating, drying, oxidizing
Dilution of H2SO4 (l)
Add conc sul. slowly to a large amount water
Constant stirring
If not,
Conjunction of liquid
Heat - boil the water
Acid splash out
