Reactions of acids and basesThe information on this sheet will give you a starting point for your understandings of reactions of acids and bases.
Neutralisation reactions
Neutralisation reactions occur between strong __________________ and __________________ Bases.
They are called neutralisation reactions because they produce__________________ which is neutral
with a pH _______.
The general work equation is.
Acid + Base Salt + Water
The type of salt produced will be determined by the metal in the base and the type of acid.
The reaction of potassium hydroxide and sulphuric acid will give?
Sulphuric acid + Potassium Hydroxide ________________________ + Water
Metal and Acid reactions
We have already looked at the reactions of metals and acids when we produced the gas
____________________.
The general word equation for the reaction of a metal and an acid is.
Metal + Acid _________________ (g) + Salt
The word equation for the reaction of magnesium metal with hydrochloric acid is
________________+___________________ ___________________+________________ + heat
This the gas produced can be identified through the _____________ test.
Acid and metal carbonate reactions
We have looked at an example of these reactions when
we produced the gas __________________.
Today we did this reaction in class using the setup shown
here. Label all components.
Our reactants were: Calcium carbonate and hydrochloric
acid
Our products were: _________________+ _______________+__________________
The word equation for this reaction is:
Calcium Carbonate + Hydrochloric acid _______________+ ________________+ Calcium chloride
solution
The general word equation for the reactions of metal carbonates with an acid is:
Acid + Metal Carbonate Carbon dioxide + Water + Salt
