    Study Notes

    Acids and Bases

    • Acids generate H+(aq) and bases generate OH-(aq) ions
    • Neutralization reaction: Acid + Base → Salt + Water
    • H+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)

    Mixing Acids and Bases with Water

    • The process of dissolving an acid or base in water is highly exothermic
    • Care must be taken while mixing concentrated acids or bases with water
    • Acid must be added slowly to water with constant stirring to avoid splashing and burns

    Indicators and Tests

    • Litmus is a natural indicator that changes color in response to acids and bases
    • Acids are sour in taste and change blue litmus to red
    • Bases are bitter and change red litmus to blue
    • Other natural indicators include turmeric, red cabbage leaves, and certain flowers
    • Synthetic indicators like methyl orange and phenolphthalein can also be used

    Neutralization Reaction

    • The reaction between an acid and a base to give a salt and water is known as a neutralization reaction
    • Base + Acid → Salt + Water
    • Example: NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

    Reaction of Metallic Oxides with Acids

    • Metallic oxides react with acids to give salts and water
    • Metal oxide + Acid → Salt + Water
    • Example: CuO + HCl(aq) → CuCl2(aq) + H2O(l)
    • Metallic oxides are said to be basic oxides

    Reaction of Non-metallic Oxides with Bases

    • Non-metallic oxides react with bases to give salts and water
    • Non-metallic oxides are acidic in nature
    • Example: Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2(g) → CaCO3(s) + H2O(l)

    pH in the Digestive System

    • The stomach produces hydrochloric acid to aid in digestion
    • Excess acid production can cause pain and irritation
    • Antacids, which are mild bases, can be used to neutralize excess acid

    pH Change and Tooth Decay

    • Tooth decay starts when the pH of the mouth is lower than 5.5
    • Tooth enamel is corroded when the pH is below 5.5
    • Bacteria in the mouth produce acids that can cause tooth decay
    • Using toothpaste, which is generally basic, can help neutralize excess acid and prevent tooth decay
