- Acids, Bases and Salts
- Acids
- H+ (aq) make solutions acidic
- reacts with bases to form salts
- Hydrochloric acid = chlorides
- Nitric acid = Nitrates
- sulphuric acid = sulfates
- The volumes of acid and alkali solutions that react with each other can be measured by Titrations
- Bases
- metal oxides are bases
- limewater= test for CO2
- OH- (aq) make solutions alkaline
- soluble hydroxides are called alkalis
- Ammonia dissolves in H20 to form an alkali
- forms ammonium
- used as fertilisers
- forms ammonium
- Salts
- The salts formed depends on the metal in the base or alkali
- making salts
- insoluble salts
- made by mixing appropriate solutions of ions
- forms precipitate
- used to remove unwanted ions from solutions
- eg. in treating water
- used to remove unwanted ions from solutions
- forms precipitate
- made by mixing appropriate solutions of ions
- insoluble salts
- Acids
