Q

What is the pH of a base/ alkali?

A

pH more than 7

18
Q

What is the pH scale a measure of?

A

The concentration of hydrogen ions in any given solution

19
Q

How can the pH be measured?

A

By universal indicator
pH paper
pH meter

20
Q

What is the name for H+

A

Hydrogen ions

21
Q

What is the name of OH-

A

Hydroxide ions

22
Q

In pure water what is the concentration of H+ and OH- ions?

A

Hydrogen ions = hydroxide ions

23
Q

What ion does all acids contain?

A

H+ / Hydrogen ions

24
Q

Why do acidic and alkaline solutions conduct electricity well?

A

They contain oppositely charged ions that are free to move in solution and can carry charge

25
Formula for Ethanoic acid
CH3COOH
26
What is the proportion of hydroxide and hydrogen ions in alkaline solution ?
More OH- than H+
27
What happens to the pH and the concentration of an acid when you dilute it?
The pH goes up and concentration of the acid goes down
28
What happens to the pH and the concentration of an alkali when you dilute it?
The pH goes down and concentration of the alkali goes down
29
If a metal oxide is soluble in water what does it produce ?
An alkali
30
If a non metal oxide is soluble in water what does it produce
An acid
31
What does acids contain?
Charged particles called hydrogen ions
32
what is the difference between a base and an alkali
A base is a substance that neutralises an acid A base that is soluble in an alkali All alkalis are bases but not all bases are alkalis
33
What is a spectator ion?
It's an ion that exists in the same form on both the reactant and product sides of a chemical reaction
34
what is titration?
an experimental method to determine the concentration of an unknown solution.
35
How to recognise hydrogen? (test for hydrogen?)
Burns with a pop
36
How to recognise oxygen? (test for oxygen)
Relights a glowing splint
37
How to recognise carbon dioxide? (test for carbon dioxide)
Turns lime water cloudy
38
What is the name of a metal oxide that do not dissolve in water but is capable of neutralising an acid?
a base
39
What are the products of this reaction: Hydrochloric acid + potassium carbonate?
potassium chloride + water + carbon dioxide
40
What are the products for this reaction: | Sulfuric acid + Lithium oxide? (write the chemical formula for the salt produced)
Lithium sulfate + water Salt: Lithium Sulfate, formula: Li2SO4
41
