Answer: The correct answer is acids are sour in taste whereas bases are bitter in taste.
Explanation:
- Any substance that tastes unpleasant in water solution, turns blue litmus paper red, reacts with some metals to release hydrogen, reacts with bases to create salts, and stimulates chemical processes or reactions is considered an acid (acid catalysis).
- Any hydrogen-containing material that has the ability to donate a proton (hydrogen ion) to another chemical is considered an acid and a base is a molecule or ion that can take up an acid's hydrogen ion. Typically, sour tastes help to identify the acidic chemicals.
- Acids often taste sour because of the sour H+ ion, while bases typically taste bitter because of the OH- ion. However, depending on the other component of the molecule, they may have diverse flavors. Typically, bases have a soapy texture. Active metals corroded by acids; protein denatured by bases.
