2.Match the pairs
a-iv b-v c-ii d-iii e- i
3.Asseratation and Reason
i)a
ii)c
4.Answer the following questions in one sentence
a.What are weak acids ?
Those acids which does not dissociate completely in water to form

hydrogen ions (H+) are known as weak acids Eg: Formic acid(HCOOH)
and Acetic acid(CH3COOH) are dissocite partially in water.
b.What will be the colour of the basic solution after adding phenopthalein
indicator ?
phenopthalein indicator is a colourless solution made up from acholol it

turns pink at basic solution and remains colourless in acidic and basic
solutions.
c.Which salt is used for manufacture of gun powder ?
NCERT CHP 5 ACIDS BASES AND SALTS CBSE

Potassium nitrate is an example of nitrates used manufacture

gunpowders and fireworks;as a fertiliser.
5.Answer the following questions in 2- 3 sentances
a.What are indicators ?
Indicators are used to test that weather the substance is acidic or

basic. It changes the colour in acidic or basic enviroments. It is of two
types
i)Natural indicators
ii)Synthetic indicators
b.What is an alaki ? Give one example.
Some bases dissolve in water. Those bases which dissolves in water are
known as alakis. Eg- washing soda(contanig sodium bicarbonate) is an
example of a alakis.
c.Why is the antacid taken when a person suffers from acidity ?
Our stoamch produces hydrochrolic acid that helps in digestion in our

food. Sometimes our stomach produces excess amount of hydrochrolic
acid which may cause heart burn and indigestion.Therefore an antacid
tablet is taken to relive acidity. It contains bases that neturlises the
acids present in the stoamach.Alluimium hydroxide and Mangensium
hydroxide(Milk of Mangnesia) are some commoly used as antacids.
6.Answer the following questions in 3- 4 sentances.
a. Why is factory waste neturlised before disposing it into water bodies ?
Because Sereval industries produce waste. These wastes contains

strong acids. If they are directly disposed into the lakes and rivers it
will adeversly affect the aquatic life. To avoid this waste are first
treated with bases like Allumium oxide and Mangnesium oxide to
neturlise the harmful effects of the acids.
b.Explain why test tube turns hot after a neturlisation reaction.
Test tube turns hot after a neturlisation reaction because the reaction
between acid and base to form salt and water is called neturlisation. In
neturlisation heat is evolved. The evolved heat raises the temprtaure of
the reactive mixture (exothermic reaction). A neturlisation can be
represented by following equation.
Acid + Base → Salt + Water + Heat(exothermic reaction)
c.Explain what is the acid rain ?

A acid rain is a type of rainwater contain an excess amounts of acids.

When carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide dissolves in
a water vapor or moisture to form carbonic acid, sulphuric acid, nitric
acid. Then it falls as acid rain. It causes damage to buildings, historical
monuments, plants and animalls.
Compentency based question
The acidic and basic nature of a substance can be tested with the help of
indicators.
Naturally occuring indicators are litmus, tumeric, china rose, red cabbage and
synthetic indicators are methyll orange, phenolphthalein and universal indicator.
1.Name the source from which litmus solution is obtained.
Lichens
2.What is the test for the acida and bases using methyll orange indicator.
Methyll orange indicator is orange in colour. It turns red in acidic

solutions and red in basic and netural solutions.
Picture Study
Obeserve the given picture and answer the following qwuestions.
1.Which is more basic solution of PH=9 or solution of PH=12 ?
The solution of PH = 12 is more basic. Ex bleech
2.Name the strongest acid in the PH scale.
Hydrochrolic acid
3.If a solution changes the colour of red litmus paper to blue, what can you say
about its PH?
Its PH will be more than 7 as only basic solution can change the colour
of the red litmus paper to blue. And the PH scale ranges from 8 – 14 is
basic the more the value more alankine of the basic solution.
Put on your Thinking Caps
The pH of a person mouth becomes lower after each meal. Why ?

The saliva pH value before the meal is 7.4 which is basic, but after
the meal the pH value of saliva becomes 5.8 which is less than
seven. After each meal, the sugar in food items will break down to
corresponding acids by the action of bacteria, as acidity increases,
the pH decreases. The saliva can help neutralize the acid, but eating
acidic food can increase the acidity of the mouth.
