Study Notes

Acids and Alkalis

Acids and alkalis are two groups of hazardous substances.
They differ from each other, but are both irritant or corrosive.
Both react with substances (including skin) to produce new substances, causing dissolution.
This dissolution makes it seem like the acid or alkali is "wearing away" the other substance.

Safety Precautions

To prevent accidents when dealing with corrosive chemicals, always wear safety goggles.
Immediately wash away any spills with plenty of cold water.
