Question 5

Reactions between acids & bases

Answer 5

ACIDS:
Property 1: Acids + metals -> salt + H2
Property 2: Acids + metal carbonates -> salt + CO2 + H2O
Property 3: Acids + metal oxides / hydroxides -> salt + H2O (neutralisation)
- H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) -> H2O (l)

BASES:
Property 1: Alkalis + acids -> salt + H2O (neutralisation)
- H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) -> H2O (l)
Property 2: Alkalis + ammonium salts -> ∆ (heat is added) salt + H2O + ammonia gas
