What to Focus On

  • Acids: sour taste, turn blue litmus red, conduct electricity in water
  • Bases: bitter taste, turn red litmus blue, soapy feel, conduct electricity
  • Natural indicators: litmus, turmeric, red cabbage leaves

  • Acid + Metal → Salt + Hydrogen gas (H₂ burns with 'pop' sound)
  • Acid + Metal carbonate → Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide
  • CO₂ turns lime water milky (forms CaCO₃ precipitate)

  • Some metals (Zn, Al) react with strong bases to produce H₂ gas
  • Neutralization: Acid + Base → Salt + Water
  • Neutralization cancels acidic and basic properties

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All acids are strong and all bases are strong

pH scale measures the 'power' or 'strength' of acids

Water is always neutral with pH = 7

Memory Tips

Litmus paper color changes

pH scale values (0-14)

Strong acids: HCl, H2SO4, HNO3

Neutralization reaction
