Difference between acid base and salt and their properties
Answers
Answer:
Acid is a kind of chemical compound that when dissolved in water gives a solution with H+ ion activity more than purified water. A base is an aqueous substance that donates electrons, accept protons or release hydroxide (OH-) ions. An acid is a proton donor. ... Acid remains colourless when dissolved.
Answer:
Explanation:
Acid:
Acids are sour in taste and they release H+ ions when dissolved in water. Acids turn blue litmus paper to red. Acids are formed when non-metals react with water under certain conditions.
Ex: HCl, H2SO4, HNO3, CH3CH2OH,etc.
Base:
Bases are bitter in taste and they release OH- ions when dissolved in water.Bases turn red litmus paper to blue. Bases are formed when metals react with water under certain conditions.
Ex:NaOH, KOH, Ca(OH)2, Mg(OH2),etc.
Salts:
Salts are formed when acids and bases react with each other. Salts are neutral in nature and they also conduct electricity when dissolved in water as the acids and bases. They have high boiling and melting points.
Ex: NaCl, MgSO4, KNO3, etc.
Acid + Base ------------》Salt + Water.
