What to Focus On

  • Indicators show acidic or basic nature by colour change.
  • Litmus is a natural indicator from lichen.
  • Litmus is purple in neutral solution, red in acid, and blue in base.
  • Acid + metal gives salt and hydrogen gas.
  • Metal carbonate or hydrogencarbonate + acid gives salt, carbon dioxide, and water.
  • Lime water turns milky due to calcium carbonate formation.
  • Acids produce hydrogen ions in water.
  • Hydrogen ions combine with water to form hydronium ions.
  • Bases produce hydroxide ions in water.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All substances containing hydrogen are acids.

Dry HCl gas is acidic in the same way as HCl solution.

An alkali and a base are the same thing.
