E N D
Substances that dissociate in solution to produce HYDROGEN IONS (H+) (“PROTONS”) • Chemical formula begins with an H and is usually followed by “(aq)” • Taste sour, water soluble, conduct electricity • React with metals and carbonates (corrosive)
BINARY ACIDS- molecular compound in which H is combined with another non-metallic element • Hydrofluoric acid, HF(aq), etching glass • Hydrochloric acid, HCl(aq), cleaning concrete • Hydrobromic acid, HBr(aq), cleaning compounds • Hydrosulphuric acid, H2S(aq), purifying metals
Binary acids are very dangerous • They can cause CHEMICAL BURNS if not handled safely
OXYACIDS- an acid that contains O, at least one other element, and at least one H attached to an O • Acetic acid (vinegar) HC2H3O2(aq) , salad dressing • Citric acid, HC6H7O7(aq), oranges, lemons • Ascorbic acid, HC6H7O6(aq), vitamin C • Lactic acid, HC3H5O3(aq), sour milk • Carbonic acid, H2CO3(aq), carbonated drinks • Acetylsalcyclic acid (ASA), HC9H7O4(aq), Aspirin • Sulphuric acid, H2SO4(aq), car batteries
“ALKALINE” • Substances that dissociate in solution to produce HYDROXIDE IONS (OH-), chemical formula is usually followed by “(aq)” • Taste bitter, water soluble, slippery feeling, conducts electricity • Reacts with proteins
Common Bases: • Sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), NaOH(aq) , industrial chemical, drain cleaner • Aluminum hydroxide, Al(OH)3(aq) , heartburn medication • Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), making baked goods rise, abrasive cleaner • Ammonium hydroxide, NH4OH(aq) , window cleaner
