200

Numbers in the pH scale that represent acidic solutions.

What is numbers lower than 7?



200

HCl

What is an acid?

(see table K)

200

Reaction between an acid and a base.

What is a neutralization?

200

A salt

What is an ionic compound?

200

A reference table that would help you decide which metals will react with an acid and which ones will not.

What is table J?

200

The lab procedure used to find the unknown concentration of a solution by reacting it with another solution of known concentration.

What is a titration?

300

The product of combining H+  ions with H2O.

What is a hydronium ion (H3O+)?

300

Reacts with some metals to produce hydrogen gas.

What is an acid?

300

Numbers in the pH scale that represent basic (alkaline) solutions.

What is a number higher than 7?



300

Usually referred to as alkaline.

What is a base?

300

The pH number that represents a neutral solution.

What is pH = 7?

300

The salt that results from the neutralization of HCl with KOH.

What is KCl?

(The H from the acid and the OH from the base make H2O. Whatever is left forms the salt.)


300

A metal that will NOT react with an acid.

What is copper (Cu), silver (Ag) or gold (Au)?

(any metal below H2 in table J)

300

The mathematical equation used to make calculations using  data from a titration.

What is 

400

Area in the United States where the most acidic rain occurs.

What is the north east area?

(yellow/orange colors represent lower pH = more acidic)

400

Produces OH- (hydroxide ions) when dissolved in water.

What is a base?

400

Compares the acidity of lemon juice (pH 2) and stomach acid (pH 1)

What is stomach acid is 10 times MORE ACIDIC than a lemon juice?  or lemon juice is 10 times LESS ACIDIC than stomach acid?

 

400

H2SO4

What is an acid?


400

The product of combining H+ and OH-.

What is water (H2O)?

400

The salt that results from the neutralization of HNO3 and NaOH.

What is NaNO3?

(The H from the acid and the OH from the base make H2O. Whatever is left forms the salt.)

400

The metal shown here reacting with an acid.

Mg + 2HCl -> MgCl2 + H2


What is magnesium (Mg)?

400

Must be added to the solution being titrated in order to identify the endpoint of the titration.

What is an indicator?

500

The gas produced in the reaction between an acid and a carbonate (like limestone). See reaction.

CaCO3 + H+ -> Ca+2 + H2O + CO2


What is carbon dioxide (CO2)?

500

Produces H+ (hydrogen ions) when dissolved in water?

What is an acid?

Baking soda

What is a base?

500

If acid spilled on a river, this would happen to the pH of the river water.

What is a decrease in pH?

(recall that acids have low pH values)

500

H2SO4 + Ca(OH)2 -> 2H2O + _______

What is CaSO4?

(The H from the acid and the OH from the base make H2O. Whatever is left forms the salt.)

What is Pb, Zn, Al, Na...?

(mention any metal that is above H2 on table J)

500

The solution color that will signal the correct time to stop the titration.

What is light pink? or the flask at the center?

600

Explains why the reaction between acid rain and limestone is very slow.

What is the acid concentration in rain is low (compared to, let's say, vinegar), and rain water is not always in contact with the limestone?

600

Conducts electricity when dissolved in water.

What is an acid or a base?

(Sorry, trick question. Both acids and bases are conductors of electricity :)

600

The pH of a solution 1000 times MORE ACIDIC than water.

What is a pH of 4?

(recall that water's pH =7)

 

600

KOH

What is a base?


600

The reason why antiacid tablets, like Tums, help with acid reflux.

What is acid from the stomach that is causing the acid reflux gets neutralized by the antiacid (alkaline) tablet, minimizing the destructive effect of the acid in your esophagus?

600

The acid and base that formed KNO3 in a neutralization reaction.

What is HNO3 (acid) and KOH (base)?

600

A possible reason that explains the difference in reaction rate between magnesium and hydrochloric acid shown here.

What is a difference in concentration, the first tube having the most concentrated acid and the last tube having the lowest concentration?

(High concentration, faster rate of reaction)
