Acids, Bases and Salts, Quick Revision, 1. Acids, CACO, (s)+ 2HCI(aq), → CaCl, (aq) + H,0(1), Calcium, carbonate, Hydrochloric, acid, Acids are those chemical substances which, Calcium, chloride, Water, have a sour taste and turn blue litmus solution, red., + CO,(g ), Carbon, dioxide, According to Arrhenius concept, substances, that furnish H* ions in an aqueous solution are, called acids., → NaCl (aq), + H,O(s) + CO, (g), H,SO, → 2H* + So;, • Acids may be strong (which completely, e.g., Substances that furnish hydroxide ions (OH), in aqueous solution are called bases. e.g., Caustic soda or sodium hydroxide, NaOH., 2. Chemical Properties of Acids, • Reaction with Metals Dilute acids, and H,SO,, not HNO,) react with certain active, metals like zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), etc., to evolve H,, Strong Bases The substances/bases which, ionise completely to furnish OH ions, are called strong bases. e.g. KOH (caustic, potash)., • Weak Bases The bases which ionise only, partially are called weak bases. e.g. Calcium, hydroxide [Ca(OH),]., • Alkali Water soluble base is called alkali. e.g., NaOH. All alkalies are base, but all base are, not alkalies., Samasth Claase, HCI, 45, gas., e.g., Zn(s ) + H,SO, (aq) –, → ZnSO,(aq)+ H,(g), 4, Zinc, Zine, Hydrogen, Sulphuric, acid, sulphate, • Reaction with Metal Oxides Acids react with, certain metal oxides (basic oxides) to form salt, and water., • Bases have bitter taste, turn red litmus to blue, and soapy to touch., e.g., 4. Chemical Properties of Bases, • Reaction with Metals Strong bases react, with active metals to produce hydrogen gas. e.g., CaO(s)+ 2HCI(aq), → CaCl, (aq)+ H,O(1), Calcium, oxide, Water, Hydrochloric, аcid, Calcium, chloride, • Reaction with Metal Carbonate and, Hydrogen Carbonate Acids react with metal, carbonates and hydrogen carbonates to produce, carbon dioxide gas. e.g., Zn(s)+ 2NAOH(aq), Sodium hydroxide, → Na ,ZnO, (aq), Zinc, Sodium zincate, + H,(g), Hydrogen

Acids, Bases and Salts, 17, Reaction with Non-metallic Oxide Bases, Colour, react with non-metallic oxides (acidic oxides) to, produce salt and water. This reaction proves, that non-metallic oxides are acidic in nature. e.g., Indicator, pH-range (In Acidic (In Basic, Medium) Medium), (i) Natural Indicators, CO, (g )+ Ca(OH),(aq), → CaCO, (s )+ H,0(1), Litmus, Red, Blue, Calcium, carbonate, Water, Carbon, dioxide, Slaked lime, Turmeric, Yellow, Red, 5. Reaction Between Acids and Bases, Red cabbage, Red, Green, • Acids react with bases to produce salt and water., In this reaction, acid neutralises a base,, i.e. reduce its effect or vice-versa, thus the, juice (from, leaves), reaction is known as neutralisation reaction., (ii) Synthetic indicators, • In general, neutralisation reaction can be, Phenolphthalein 8.4-10.00 Colourless Pink (Red), written as, Base + Acid → Salt +Water, Methyl orange, 3.1-4.4 Red, Yellow, (iii) Olfactory Indicators Those substances, whose odour changes in acidic or basic, medium are called olfactory indicators. e.g., e.g., → NaCl(aq)+ H,O(1), NaOH(aq)+ HCI(aq), Hydrochloric, acid, Sodium, Water, Sodium, chloride, hydroxide, extract and onion., 6. Effect of Dilution on an Acid or Base, Mixing of an acid or base with water is called, dilution. It results in decrease in the, given acid or base is, a universal indicator is, used which is a mixture of several indicators., concentration of ions (H,O"/OH) per unit, volume and the acid or base is said to be, It shows different colours at different, concentrations of hydrogen ion in a solution., diluted., • The process of diluting an acid or base is a, highly exothermic process. The acid must be, added slowly to water with constant stirring., • If water is added to a concentrated acid, the heat, generated may cause the mixture to splash out, 8. Strength of an Acid or Base, Strength of an acid or base depends on the, number of H* ions or OH¯ ions produced by, them respectively., Larger the number of H* ions produced by, an acid, stronger is the acid. Similarly, larger, the number of the OH ions produced by a, base, stronger is the base., Samarth Claes, and cause burns., 7. Indicators, Indicators are the substances that change their, colour or odour when added into an acid or, alkaline solution. Indicators can be classified as, 9. pH Scale, It is a scale used for measuring hydrogen ion, concentration. The p in the pH stands for, potenz which means power in German. It, has values ranging from 0 (very acidic) to 14, (very alkaline)., Thus, pH is a number which indicates the, acidic or basic nature of a solution., natural, synthetic indicators, olfactory indicators, and universal indicators., (i) Natural Indicators These indicators are found in, nature in the plants. e.g. Litmus solution is a, purple colour dye extracted from the lichen plant., (ii) Synthetic Indicators The indicators which are, synthesised in the laboratory or industry are, known as synthetic indicators. e.g. Methyl, orange, phenolphthalein., • According to Danish chemist Sorensen, pH is, the negative of logarithm to the base 10 of, hydrogen ion concentration present per litre, of solution.

The bacteria present in the mouth, degrades the sugar and left over food, particles and produce acids that remains, in the mouth after eating., 1, Similarly, pOH=- log [OH¯]=log, %D, [OH"], and pH + pOH —DрК., 14, Higher the hydronium ion concentration present in, the solution, lower is its pH value [pH means power, of hydrogen ions]., - If pH >7, solution is basic., - If pH < 7, solution is acidic., - If pH = 7, solution is neutral., To prevent tooth decay, toothpastes, (basic) are used which neutralise the, |, excess acid., (v) Self Defence by Animals and Plants, through Chemical Warfare When, insects like honeybee, ant, etc., bite, they, inject an acid into the skin, that causes, pain and irritation. If a mild base like, baking soda is applied on the affected, area, it gives relief., (vi) pH in Plants Stinging hair of nettle, leaves injects methanoic acid in the skin, which causes burning pain. It is cured by, rubbing with leaves of dock plant., 11. Salts, • These are produced by the, %3D, |, Neutral, Acidic nature increasing, Basic nature increasing, 7, 14, H*, OH, Increase in H ' ion concentration, Decrease in H' ion concentration, Variation of pH wilth the change in, concentration of H (ag) and OH (ag) ions, of free, ions.

Importance of pH in Everyday Life, Following are the examples showing importance of pH, in everyday life, (i) Plants and Animals are pH Sensitive Our body, works normally within a pH range of 7.0 to 7.8., When pH of rain water goes below 5.6, it is called, acid rain. It lowers the pH of the river water and, makes survival of aquatic life difficult., (ii) pH of the Soil Nature of soil is known by testing its, pH and then a particular crop is grown in it by, selecting fertilizer., Here, X is non-metal and M is metal., • Salts of strong acid and strong base are, neutral (pH=7). Salts of strong acid and, weak base are acidic [pH < 7] and salts of, strong base and weak acid are basic in, nature (pH > 7)., 12.
