2. Acids Have a sour taste. Vinegar owes its taste to acetic acid: CH 3 COOH Citrus fruits contain citric acid: C(CH 2 COOH) 2 (COOH)OH 4.3 Are corrosive. so don’t taste them!

3. Acids Have a pH < 7, and interact with indicators… Litmus Phenolpthalein Universal Indicator Soln 4.3 http://depts.uwc.edu/chemistry/helpful_files/indicators.jpg

4. Acids React with active* metals to produce hydrogen gas. 4.3 active* metals are those above H+ in the reactivity series – see p. 246. Ex1: magnesium + hydrochloric acid Ex 2: magnesium + sulfuric acid

5. Acids React with active* metals to produce hydrogen gas. 4.3 active* metals are those above H+ in the reactivity series – see p. 246. http://cathodic-- protection.blogspot.com/2009/0 8/fundamental-of-corrosion.html

6. Acids React with base (metal oxide or metal hydroxide) to produce a salt and water. 4.3 Ex 3: nitric acid + copper(ll) oxide Ex 4: phosphoric acid + sodium hydroxide

7. Acids React with metal carbonates and hydrogen carbonates to produce a salt, water, and carbon dioxide gas 4.3 Ex 5: hydrochloric acid reacts with zinc carbonate: Ex 6: ethanoic acid reacts with sodium hydrogen carbonate:

8. Common Acids (memorize) hydrochloric acidHCl sulfuric acidH 2 SO4 nitric acid HNO 3 ethanoic (or acetic) acidCH 3 COOH waterH 2 O hydrofluoric acidHF phosphoric acidH 3 PO 4

9. Solutions of bases are called alkalis… bitter taste feel slippery Many soaps contain bases. Bases 4.3 ? Any substance that neutralizes an acid ? metal oxides metal hydroxides metal carbonates ammonia amines

10. Bases Have a pH > 7, and interact with indicators… Litmus Phenolpthalein Universal Indicator Soln 4.3 http://depts.uwc.edu/chemistry/helpful_files/indicators.jpg

11. Bases React with acids to produce a salt and water 4.3 Ex 7: calcium oxide reacts with hydrochloric acid: Ex 8: calcium hydroxide reacts with nitric acid:

12. Common Bases (memorize) sodium hydroxideNaOH potassium hydroxideKOH barium hydroxideBa(OH) 2 ammoniaNH 3 waterH 2 O ethyl amineCH 3 CH 2 NH 2 ammonium hydroxideNH 4 OH
