CHAPTER 11- ACID & ALKALI

ACID
Common Acid use in Chemical Formula
Properties of Acid: Lab

• Sour in taste Hydrochloric acid HCl


• Have pH value of less than 7.
Sulphuric Acid H2SO4
• Corrosive
• The lower the pH value, the
Nitric Acid HNO3
more corrosive the acid will be.
Ethanoic acid CH3COOH
ALKALI
Properties of Alkali:
Common Acid use in Chemical Formula
• Bitter in taste Lab
• Have pH value of more than 7. Sodium hydroxide NaOH

• Soapy fell when touch Potassium Hydroxide KOH

• Corrosive Ammonia NH3

• The higher the pH value, the Calcium Carbonate CaCO3

more corrosive the acid will be.


INDICATOR

• Indicator is a substances which


can be used to indicate
whether a substances is acidic
or not.
• Indicator will show different
color when it expose to acid /
alkali.
Indicator Acidic Neutral Alkaline
Universal Yellowish / Green Bluish /
Indicator Red Purplish
EXPLANATION OF ACID
• When an acid dissolved in water, it dissociate (break up) into H+ ions and another
negative ion.
• For example:
HCl --> H+ + Cl-
• The higher the dissociation rate, the stronger the acid will be. The stronger the acid, the lower
the pH and the higher the conductivity.
• Inorganic acid such as sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid are strong acid because
they dissociate 100% into H+ when dissolve in water.
• Organic acid on the other hand is weaker because they only dissociate partially into H +.
EXPLANATION OF ALKALI
• Alkali will dissociate into OH- and a positively charged ion when dissolved in
water.
• OH- is the ions that make a solution alkaline.
• The higher the dissociation rate, the stronger the alkali will be. The stronger the
alkali, the higher the pH and the higher the conductivity.
• In comparison to NaOH, NH3 is a weaker alkali as it only partially dissociate into
OH- whereas NaOH dissociate 100% into a positively charge ions and OH-.
BASE AND ALKALI

• All alkalis are bases but not all bases are alkali.
• Bases cannot dissolve in water whereas all alkali can dissolve in
water.
• Example of bases include metal oxide, some carbonates such as
calcium carbonate.

Alkali Base
APPLICATION OF NEUTRALIZATION

• Neutralization is the process of when alkaline / base react with acid to produce water
and salt.

• Examples of neutralization application includes:


• Neutralizing the acidic soil with calcium carbonate so that the soil is fit for crops growing again.
• Brushing teeth with toothpaste may neutralize the acid generated by the bacteria in the mouth.
This can prevent tooth decay.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN REACTION OF
ACID WITH BASE AND REDOX REACTION
• When hydrochloric acid react with sodium, sodium chloride and hydrogen is formed.

HCl + Na  NaCl + H2

• From the chemical equation above, we can check if the reaction above is redox
reaction or not by stating the oxidation number / states of each atom.

• From the changes of oxidation states above, the reaction above is redox reaction
because:
I. The oxidation state of Hydrogen reduce from +1 to 0. Thus, hydrogen undergo reduction.
II. The oxidation state of sodium increase from 0 to +1. Thus, sodium undergoes oxidation.
III. Since both oxidation and reduction happens at the same time, the reaction above is
redox reaction.

1. Sodium + hydrochloric acid
2. Potassium hydroxide + sulphuric acid
3. Magnesium carbonate + nitric acid
4. Calcium + ethanoic acid
BASIC OXIDE

Metal + Oxygen  Metal Oxide

• All metal oxide are basic oxide. This is because, metal oxide will neutralize the acid to
form salt and water as shown in equation below:

CuO + 2HCl  CuCl2 + H2O


ACIDIC OXIDE
• When non-metal reacts with oxygen, they form into non-metal oxide.
• In general, non-metal oxide is acidic.

For example:

C + O2  CO2

When carbon dioxide react with water, it gives carbonic acid:

CO2 + H2O  H2CO3

Carbonic acid will turns blue litmus red litmus.


REACTION OF NON-METAL WITH OXYGEN

• Carbon glows red and react with oxygen to form carbon dioxide.

• Sulphur burns into bluish flame when react with oxygen to form sulphur dioxide.

• Phophorus burst into white flame with heated when it expose to oxygen. It forms
phophorus pentoxide.
AMPHOTERIC OXIDE
• Amphoteric oxide can neutralize both acid and base.

• Two examples of amphoteric oxides are zinc oxide and aluminium oxide.

• When aluminium oxide react with acid, neutralization happen:

• When aluminium oxide reacts with base, neutralization happen as well.


NEUTRAL OXIDE

• Example: carbon monoxide and dinitrogen oxide.


REACTION OF BASE WITH AMMONIUM
COMPOUND
• When a strong base or alkali react with ammonium salt, displacement reaction will happen.
Salt, water and ammonia will always be produced.

• This means that the ammonium ion will be displaced / kick out by the other metal ions
present in alkali / base.
QUIZ
• Write the chemical equations for the reactions below:

I. Ammonium nitrate + Sodium hydroxide 

II. Ammonium chloride + Potassium hydroxide 

III. Ammonium sulphate + Potassium hydroxide 

1. State which salt is soluble in water:
a) Sodium chloride
b) Potassium nitrate
c) Silver chloride
d) Calcium carbonate
e) Ammonium carbonate
f) Magnesium ethanoate
g) Barium sulphate
h) Lead chloride
i) Lead sulphate
j) Magnesium sulphate
HINTS TO PREPARE THE SOLUBLE SALT
• First, find out what kind of salt you want to make.
• Then, decide a suitable acid and alkali / base that are able to give you the salt. In
general, there are 3 major reactions that can be use to produce the soluble salts:
I. Acid + Alkali  Salt + Water
II. Acid + Metal oxide (base)  Salt + Water
III. Acid + Metal --> Salt + Hydrogen
• Usually reaction I and II are usually used.
• For example to make sodium chloride, you may use hydrochloric acid react with
sodium hydroxide:
• HCl + NaOH  H2O + NaCl
PROCEDURES OF PREPARING SOLUBLE SALTS

Add some alkali into the conical flask Add acid into the samples until the color of sample
and then add a few drops of turns clear. When all the alkali is neutralized, the
phenolphthalein indicator. The solution will turns clear.
solution will turns pink / purplish.

Repeat the procedures using the same


amount of sodium hydroxide and directly add Crystallize the samples to get
Calculate how much of acid is used the salt.
to neutralize the alkali. the acid require into the sample without
adding phenolphthalein indicator.
MAKING INSOLUBLE SALT

To make the insoluble salt:


1. Understand what insoluble salt to make first.
2. Then choose 2 soluble salts where each of the salt contains one of the ion of
your insoluble salt.
3. Mix 2 soluble salts that you choose and precipitation will occur.
4. Precipitation will give you the insoluble salt.
EXAMPLE – MAKING SILVER CHLORIDE

Making Silver Chloride (AgCl) When 2 soluble salts are mixed, silver
chloride will be precipitated as
insoluble salt.

Salts chosen:
I. Silver nitrate
II. Sodium chloride

Silver nitrate + Sodium chloride  Silver chloride + Sodium nitrate

Ionic Equation:
Ag+ + Cl-  AgCl

Hints: Your answer should cover what soluble salts you will use, the ionic equation,
chemical equation and simple procedure.
