Explain by writing a word equation bubbles are seen on adding lemon juice to baking soda
Answers
Answer:
Approximately 5 percent of lemon juice is citric acid, which accounts for the sour taste of the lemon. When you mix an acid and a base, the result is a chemical reaction that creates a new product, with a neutral base. In the case of lemon juice and baking soda, the new product is carbon dioxide gas, water and salt.
When baking soda (Sodium hydrogen carbonate) is mixed with lemon juice (citric acid), bubbles are formed. The bubbles are formed due to the evolution of carbon dioxide gas. This is a chemical change.
In this change, citric acid contained in lemon juice reacts with sodium hydrogen carbonate which results in the evolution of carbon dioxide gas.
Lemon juice + Baking soda → Carbon dioxide + Other substances
Citric acid Sodium
Hydrogen carbonate
