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
