Important Questions from Study of Acids, Bases and Salts

1multiple correct

Which of the following are properties of acids? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

Sour taste, Turn blue litmus red, React with metals to produce hydrogen

Acids have sour taste, turn blue litmus red, and react with active metals to produce hydrogen gas. Bitter taste and turning red litmus blue are properties of bases.

2multiple choice

Which type of salt is NaHSO4?

Show answer

Acid salt

NaHSO4 (sodium hydrogen sulphate) is an acid salt because it contains a replaceable hydrogen atom from the original acid H2SO4. It is formed by partial replacement of hydrogen atoms.

3multiple choice

What happens when zinc reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid?

Show answer

Hydrogen gas is produced

When zinc reacts with dilute HCl, hydrogen gas is produced along with zinc chloride: Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2↑. This is a characteristic reaction of acids with active metals.

4multiple correct

Which of the following are examples of organic acids? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

Acetic acid (CH3COOH), Formic acid (HCOOH), Citric acid

Organic acids contain carbon and are derived from living organisms. Acetic acid (vinegar), formic acid (bee sting), and citric acid (citrus fruits) are organic acids. HCl and H2SO4 are mineral acids.
