Acid property

Turns litmus paper red, has a pH less than 7, and tastes sour.

Base property

Turns litmus paper blue, has a pH greater than 7, feels slippery, and tastes bitter.

Neutral property

Has a pH of 7, and does not turn litmus paper either red or blue.

Physical change

Study Notes

Acids, Bases, and Neutrals

  • Acids turn litmus paper red
  • Bases turn litmus paper blue
  • Neutrals do not change litmus paper color
  • Acids have a sour taste
  • Bases have a bitter taste
  • Bases feel slippery

Physical vs. Chemical Changes

  • Boiling water is a physical change because the water molecules are not rearranged and the original substance is present, just in a different state

  • Adding sugar to water and making it dissolve is a physical change because the sugar molecules are dispersed in the water, but the original substances are still present, just different states

  • Neutralization is a chemical change, it forms a new substance

  • Folding paper or cooking an apple pie are physical changes

  • Cooking an apple pie is a chemical change

Solubility

  • Solubility is the ability of a substance to dissolve in another substance
  • As temperature increases, the solubility of most substances increases
  • The substances in this graph which are being dissolved into water are Potassium Nitrate, Sodium Chlorate, and Sodium Chloride
  • Materials in solution are more soluble in higher temperatures
