1. Indicators and Basic Tests

  • Litmus is a natural acid-base indicator extracted from lichen, which belongs to Thallophyta.
  • In neutral solution, litmus is purple.
  • Acids turn blue litmus red.

2. Reactions of Acids and Bases

  • Acids react with metals to form salt and hydrogen gas.
  • Generally hydrogen gas is evolved when an acid reacts with a metal.
  • Zinc reacts with dilute HCl to form zinc chloride and hydrogen gas.

3. Acids, Bases, Water, and Ions

  • Acids show acidic properties because they produce hydrogen ions in water.
  • Hydrogen ions cannot exist as bare ions in water; they form hydronium ions.
  • Hydronium ions are represented as H3O+.
4

4. Strength, pH, and Indicators

  • Strength of an acid or base depends on the concentration of H3O+ ions or OH- ions produced in solution.
  • Strong acids give more H3O+ ions.
  • Weak acids give fewer H3O+ ions.
