difference between acids and basis
Answers
Answer:
Acids:
1.)An acid is any chemical compound once dissolved in water produces a solution with hydrogen ion activity more than purified water
2.)Strength relies on the concentration of the hydronium ions
3.)examples - Acetic acid CH3COOH and sulphuric acid
4.) they Would depend upon the temperature acids would look solid, liquid or in the form of gas. It would also have a sour taste.
5.) Acids would release hydrogen ions (h+) when mixed with water
6.)Test with Litmus would turn litmus paper red
Base:
1.)A base is an aqueous substance that could absorb hydrogen ions.
2.)Strength relies on the concentration of the hydroxide ions
3.)Example - Sodium Hydroxide (NAOH) and Ammonia
4.)Bases would feel slippery and solid in nature except ammonia which is gaseous. It would have a bitter taste.
5.)Bases would release hydroxide ions(OH-) when mixed with water
6.)Test with Litmus would turn litmus paper blue
Answer:
ACID
1.acid are sour in taste
2.acid have phvalue less than 7
3.it react with metal to form hydrogen gas
4.turn blue litmus to red
BASE
1.base are bitter in taste
2.base have phvalue greater than 7
3.bases are slippery to touch
4.turn red litmus to blue
