make a whole table of difference b/w chemical properties of acids and bases with examples/reactions
Answers
Acids and bases are two types of corrosive substances. A corrosive substance is a substance that will destroy and damage other substances with which it comes into contact. Corrosive substances are known to have strong reactions with variety of materials, including metals and various organic compounds.
All chemical compounds have a pH value. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14. It is the measure of concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. Any substance above the neutral pH is considered a base, whereas any substance below the neutral pH is considered an acid. The neutral pH is the pH of pure water, i.e. 7. So, any substance with a pH value between 0 up to 7 is considered acidic, whereas a pH value of 7 to 14 is a base.
Acids are ionic compounds that break apart in water to form a hydrogen ion (H+). Ionic compounds are a compound with a positive or negative charge. Bases, on the other hand are ionic compounds that break apart to form a negatively charged hydroxide ion (OH-) in water. The strength of an acid or base is determined on the basis of how many of their respective ions do they release; the more ions,

Answer :
Physical properties of Acid and Base :
1) Acids are sour in taste, turn blue litmus red, and dissolve in water to release H+ ions
e.g. HCl, H2SO4, HNO3 etc.
2) Bases are bitter in taste, have soapy touch, turn red litmus blue and give hydroxide ions in solution.
e.g. NaOH, KOH etc.
Physical properties of salt are:
Salt is a white cubic crystals.When the salt is pure it clear.
It is odorless but has strong salty taste.
Solubility in water is different at different temperatures.
Chemical properties of acids:
i) Acids react with active metals to give hydrogen gas.
Eg : Zn + H2SO4→ZnSO4 + H2
ii) Acids react with metal carbonate and metal hydrogen carbonate to give carbon dioxide.
Eg : NaHCO3 +HCl→NaCl + H2O + CO2
reaction.
iii) Acids react with bases to give salt and water. This reaction is called as neutralization
Eg : NaOH + HCl→ NaCl +H2O
iv) Acids react with metals oxides to give salt and water.
Eg : CuO + H2SO4→CuSO4 + H2O
Chemical properties of Bases:
i) Reaction with Metals - Certain reactive metals such as Zinc, Aluminium, and Tin react with alkali solutions on heating and hydrogen gas is evolved.
Eg : 2NaOH + Zn→Na2ZnO2 +H2
ii) Reaction with acids -Bases react with acids to form salt and water.
Eg : KOH +HCl→KCl +H2O
iii) Reaction with Non -metallic oxides – These oxides are generally acidic in nature. They react with bases to form salt and water.
Eg : 2NaOH + CO2→Na2CO3 + H2O
