    1) The experiment aims to study the properties of acids and bases (dilute HCl and dilute NaOH) through their reactions with litmus solutions, zinc metal, and sodium carbonate. 2) Hydrochloric acid turns blue litmus red, reacts with metals like zinc to produce hydrogen gas, and reacts with sodium carbonate to produce carbon dioxide gas. 3) Sodium hydroxide turns red litmus blue, reacts with zinc to produce hydrogen gas, and does not react with sodium carbonate.

    EXPERIMENT 2

    Aim
    To study the properties of acids and bases (dilute HCl and dilute NaOH) by
    their reaction with
    (a) Litmus solution (Blue/Red) (b) Zinc metal (c) Solid sodium carbonate

    Theory
    Hydrochloric acid
    > Chemical formula of hydrochloric acid is HCl.
    > When it is dissolved in water; releases H+(aq) ions, these H+ ions cannot exist
    alone. Hence, it combines with water to form H3O+ (aq) ions.

    > The acidic property is seen due to this H+(aq) ions/H3O+ ions.

    Properties of hydrochloric acid

    > It turns blue litmus solution red.


    > Hydrochloric acid reacts with metals to release hydrogen gas.

    > Test for H2 gas: When a burning splinter is brought near the mouth of test tube
    releasing H2 gas, it burns with a ‘pop sound’.
    > Hydrochloric acid react with sodium carbonate to release CO2 gas.

    > Test for CO2 gas: When CO2 gas is allowed to pass through freshly prepared lime
    water, then the lime water turns milky or when a burning splinter is brought near the
    mouth of the test tube releasing CO2 gas then the burning splinter extinguishes.

    Sodium hydroxide
    > Chemical formula of sodium hydroxide is NaOH.
    > When it is dissolved in water releases OH– ions.

    Properties of Sodium hydroxide


    > It turns red litmus solution blue.
    > Not all bases react with zinc metal to release H2 gas but sodium hydroxide solution
    reacts with zinc metal to release hydrogen gas.

    > Sodium hydroxide do not react with solid sodium carbonate.


    Materials Required
    A test tube stand, test tubes, match box, test tube holder, droppers, a bent delivery
    tube, burner and cork.

    Chemicals required: Dilute hydrochloric acid, dilute sodium hydroxide, blue litmus
    solution, red litmus solution, zinc metal granules or powdered zinc, solid sodium
    carbonate and freshly prepared lime water.

    Procedure
    (A) Properties of Hydrochloric Acid
    (B) Properties of Sodium Hydroxide

    Precaution

    1. Use clean test tubes.


    2. Use very small amount of chemicals.
    3. Handle hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions very carefully.
    4. Shake the solutions and reaction mixtures carefully without spilling.
    5. Always carry out the test for hydrogen with a very small volume of gas.
    6. For H2 gas test, be careful as H2 catches fire. The flame on test tube can
    be seen due to H2 gas.
    7. For lime water test, allow the CO2 gas to pass through lime water and
    shake the test tube by placing thumb on the mouth of the tube to get
    quick result.
