write the main difference between an acid and a base with the suitable examples explain the term neutralization and the formation of :acidic ,base, neutral salt
Answers
Answer
Acid dissociate H+ ions in aqueous solution & turns blue litmus to red while base dissociate OH- ion in aqueous solution & turns red litmus to blue.
Neutralization is the process in which neutral salt are formed when acid & base reacts with each other.
Ex - NaOH + HCl---> NaCl+ H2O
Formation of
I) acidic salt
when strong acid react with weak base , acidic salt is formed.
ii) basic salt
when weak acid react with strong base, basic salt is formed.
Ex- NaOH + HCO3----> NaHCO3 + H2O
iii)Neutral salt
when strong acid react with strong base or weak acid react with weak base,neutral salt is formed.
Ex- NaOH + HCl----> NaCl + H2O
Answer:
acid:
* it furnishes H+ ions
*it turns blue to red litmus
*it is sour in taste
*non metals are acidic in nature
* HCl,Ch3CooH,.....
base:
* it furnishes OH- ions
*it turns red to blue litmus
*it is bitter in taste and soapy to
touch.
*metals are basic in nature
*NaoH,KoH,........
Neutralization:
the reaction in which acid reacts with base to give salt and water
HCL+NaoH------------>NaCl+H2o
Explanation:
Hope it helps you!!
