Study Notes
Acids, Bases and Salts
- Acids taste sour and change the color of blue litmus to red
- Bases taste bitter and change the color of red litmus to blue
- Litmus is a natural indicator
- Turmeric is another natural indicator
- Synthetic indicators include methyl orange and phenolphthalein
- Acids and bases can neutralize each other's effects
- Acids react with metals to produce a salt and hydrogen gas
- Metal carbonates and hydrogencarbonates react with acids to produce a salt, water, and carbon dioxide
- Acids react with bases to produce a salt and water
- Bases react with some metals to produce a salt and hydrogen gas
- Some oxides are acidic, some are basic
- The pH scale measures the acidity or basicity of a solution
- The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14
- A pH of 7 is neutral
- A pH less than 7 is acidic
- A pH greater than 7 is basic
- Substances like vanilla, onion, and clove can be used as olfactory indicators
- Tooth decay occurs when the mouth's pH falls below 5.5
- Common salt (sodium chloride) is a raw material for several other substances, including sodium hydroxide, baking soda, and washing soda
- Sodium hydroxide is produced through the chlor-alkali process
- Chlorine and hydrogen gas are also produced during this process
- Bleaching powder is made by reacting chlorine with calcium hydroxide
- Baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate) is used in cooking and as an antacid
- Washing soda (sodium carbonate) is used in many industries and as a cleaning agent
- Plaster of Paris is a calcium sulfate hemihydrate that hardens when mixed with water
