Acids and alkalis
What can you remember?

Acid tastes
Acid comes from the latin word acer, which means sharp. Acids are sharp tasting! (“Tangy”)
(also the word
acute comes from this)

What do you call a chemical that
changes colour in acids and alkalis
![Page 5: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Indicators
Indicators are chemicals (coloured dyes) which change colour in acids and alkalis.

Can you name some indicators?
![Page 7: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Litmus
Turns red in acid
Turns blue in alkali
Litmus can tell us if something is an acid or an alkali, but it cannot tell us how strong the
acid or alkali is

Universal Indicator
It comes in the form of a paper
![Page 9: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Universal Indicator
It also comes in the form of a liquid

Other indicators
Red cabbage and beetroot make excellent indicators

What do we call the scale we use the measure acidity?
![Page 12: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The pH scale
The strength of an acid is measured on the pH scale
pH stands for the “potential of hydrogen”
![Page 13: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Universal Indicator
To measure pH, we need an indicator that has a different colour for each value of pH

What do you call it when an acid is added to an alkali?
![Page 15: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Neutralisation
![Page 16: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Neutralisation
What is produced when we add an acid to an alkali?
![Page 17: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Neutralisation
Acid + alkali salt + water
Both neutral
![Page 18: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Can you give examples of everyday life of neutralisation?
![Page 19: Acids and alkalis What can you remember?. What does the word ‘acid’ mean? Where does it come from?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5697bfe21a28abf838cb4483/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Examples of neutralisation

What do these symbols mean?
