1. Write two chemical properties of acid. Give one example of each
Answers
Two chemical properties of acid.
1 ) Acids reacts with bases to form salt and water which is also known as neutralization reaction.
for eg: i) HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O
in this reaction, hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to form common salt and water. note that we obtain NaCl in liquid form.
2) Acids react with active metals to liberate hydrogen.
for eg: Zn+H₂SO₄ → ZnSO₄ + H₂
this reaction shows displacement reaction.
