Key facts you may know • Acids: from the latin “acidus” (sour), pH1-6 and found in our stomachs, vinegar and some batteries. • Alkalis: from arabic “al qalīy” (plant ash), pH 8-14, found in detergents, added to soil to help some crops grow and to make soap.
Atomic facts to record • Acids: ALL contain “H” - hydrogen. HCl is hydrochloric acid HNO3 is nitric acid H2SO4 is sulfuric acid • Alkalis: Often contain a metal and “OH” - hydroxide NaOH is sodium hydroxide LiOH is lithium hyrdoxide
Atomic facts to record • When they react in the correct proportions, they cancel each other out – neutralisation: sodium hydroxide + nitric acid → sodium nitrate + water (pH 12) (pH 2) (pH depends (pH 7) on the salt)
1) Use a measuring cylinder and measure 10 cm3 hydrochloric acid into a beaker. 2) Use a measuring cylinder and measure 10 cm3 sodium hydroxide and add about 9 cm3 to your beaker and stir it using the glass rod. 3) Add sodium hydroxide a few drops at a time. Test a drop from the beaker each time, until the blue litmus does not turn red – you have now used up all the acid (it is neutralised). 4) Pour the solution you have made into an evaporating dish. Heat the solution gently using a water bath. Be careful of a spitting solution! 5)Stop heating when crystals appear, DON'T let it boil dry. Allow to cool. .
Writing the reaction Acid + Alkali → Salt + Water Can you write a word equation for our reaction we just carried out? Can you write a symbol equation? Using the symbols below? NaOH , HCl, H2O, NaCl
Writing the reaction Acid + Alkali → Salt + Water Can you write a word equation for our reaction we just carried out? hydrochloric acid + sodium hydroxide → sodium chloride + water Can you write a symbol equation? Using the symbols below? HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O
Writing the reaction Acid + Alkali → Salt + Water Can you write a word equation for our reaction we just carried out? hydrochloric acid + sodium hydroxide → sodium chloride + water Can you write a symbol equation? Using the symbols below? HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O The H in the acid has been replaced by the metal.
Writing the reaction Acid + Alkali → Salt + Water You always make water. The salt has 2 words and they depend on the acid and alkali used. The salt gives us the surname: • hydrochloric acid makes a chloride • nitric acid makes a nitrate • sulfuric acid makes a sulfate The metal in the alkali gives us the first name: • sodium hydroxide has sodium
To consolidate 8B41a – help to consolidate the naming of salts 8B41b – same reactions but some of the chemicals have already been placed. 8B4 2 – summary questions for the whole lesson.
