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
