Compounds
Compounds are groups of two or more elements that are bonded together.

What are Acids? Acids are
common Some are
dangerous and can burn your skin
Some are safe to eat and drink
Stomach acid helps digest food explosion

Acids
Definition • A group of compounds which behave similarly• All have low pH• Turn Litmus paper RED• All donate H+ ions in aqueous solution
Examples• Hydrochloric HCl• Sulfuric H2SO4
• Nitric HNO3

Acids
A dilute acid has lots of water and a small amount of acid
A concentrated acid has lots of acid and not much water so must be handled carefully
A strong acid releases lots of H+
A weak acid releases fewer H+

What are Bases (Alkalis)?
In our home we often use bases to clean things. Eg Bleach and toothpaste
Some things are not acids or bases, we say that they are neutral. Eg Water

Bases
Definition• A family of compounds that behave
similarly• Have a high pH• Turn litmus BLUE• All donate OH-
Examples• Ammonia NH3
• Sodium Hydroxide NaOH

Measuring acid strength?
To decide if something is an acid or a base we can use an indicator.
Litmus and Universal Indicator are examples of indicators.
They change colour depending on if they are in an acid or a base.

Working with Indicators
Red litmus turns BLUE in the presence of Bases
Blue litmus turns RED in the presence of acid
Acids and bases react together in a NEUTRALISATION reaction

Acid Reactions
Acid + Base Salt + Water
Acid + Metal Salt + Hydrogen

Antacid – (Anti-Acid)
Acid + Base = Neutral Solution
Stomach Acid Mylanta – Base The two together
make a neutral solution.

Demonstration
NaOH + HCL NaCL + H20Base Acid Neutral Solution
Turns blue in indicator
Turns red in indicator
Turns green in indicator
