What is an acid,bases or salts define with examples??
Answers
The acid are those substance which produces H+ ions in their aqueous solution is known as acid.
ex:- H2SO4, HNO3, H3PO4, HCL etc.
Acids convert blue lithmus in to red lithmus .
Properties of Acids:-
- Acids are sour in taste.
- Acids are corrosive in nature.
- Acids react with metal to give metal salt and hydrogen gas.
- Acids react with bases to give salt and water.
- Their ph value is less than 7.
The Bases are those substance which give hydroxyl ions in their aqueous solution.
ex:- NaOH, Ca(OH)2, NH4(OH) etc.
They convert red lithmus in to blue lithmus.
Properties of bases :-
- They are soapy in touch.
- They are bitter in taste.
- They are also corrosive in nature.
- They react with metal to give salt.
- They react with acid to give salt and water.
- Their ph value is greater than 7
Salts :- The salt is the neutral substance formed as a result of interaction between acid and base by neutralization reaction is called salt.
Ex:- NaCl, NaSO4, KCl, KNO3.
- They are neutral in nature.
- Their ph value is 7.
An acid is any hydrogen containing substance that is capable of donating a proton ( hydrogen ion ) to another substance .
example - sulphuric acid ( H2SO4 ) , acetic acid ( CH3COOH )
A base is a molecule or ion able to accept a hydrogen ion from an acid .
example - calcium hydroxide [ Ca(OH)2 ] , Sodium hydroxide ( Naoh ) ...
