- 2. INTRODUCTION • We use in our daily life a large number of substances such as lemon, tamarind, common salt, sugar and vinegar. • You find that some of these substances taste sour, some taste bitter, some taste sweet and some taste salty.
- 3. ACIDS AND BASES • Curd, lemon juice, orange juice and vinegar taste sour. These substances taste sour because they contain acids. The chemical nature of such substances is acidic. • The word acid comes from the Latin word acere which means sour. The acids In these substances are natural acids. • The substances which are bitter in taste and feel soapy on touching are known bases. The nature of such substances is said to be basic.
- 4. INDICATORS •Special type of substances are used to test whether a substance is acidic or basic. These substances are known as indicators. •The indicators change their colour when added to a solution containing an acidic or a basic substance. Turmeric, litmus, china rose petals ( Gudhal ), etc., are some of the naturally occurring indicators.
- 10. NATURAL INDICATORS AROUND US • Litmus: A natural dye • The most commonly used natural indicator is litmus. It is extracted from lichens • It has a mauve (purple) colour in distilled water. When added to an acidic solution, it turns red and when added to a basic solution, it turns blue. It is available in the form of a solution, or in the form of strips of paper, known as litmus paper. Generally, it is available as red and available as red and available as red and available as red and available as red and blue litmus paper
- 11. NEUTRAL SOLUTION •The solutions which do not change the colour of either red or blue litmus are known as neutral solutions. These substances are neither acidic nor basic.
- 12. • Collect some China rose ( Gudhal ) petals and place them in a beaker. Add some warm water. Keep the mixture for some time till water becomes coloured. Use the coloured water as an indicator • What is the effect of the indicator on acidic, basic and neutral solutions? China rose indicator turns acidic solutions to dark pink (magenta) and basic solutions to green. • CAUTION Great care should be taken while handling laboratory acids and bases because these are corrosive in nature, irritating and harmful to skin. CHINA ROSE AS INDICATOR
- 13. NEUTRALISATION We have learnt that acids turn blue litmus red and bases turn red litmus blue. Let us see what happens when an acid is mixed with a base. We are going to use an indicator you have not used so far. It is called phenolphthalein.
- 14. PROCESS OF NEUTRALISATION • Fill one fourth of a test tube with dilute hydrochloric acid. Note down its colour. Note down the colour of phenolphthalein solution also. Add 2–3 drops of the indicator to the acid. Now shake the test tube gently. Do you observe any change in colour of the acid? Add to the acidic solution a drop of sodium hydroxide solution by a dropper. • Stir the tube gently. Is there any change in the colour of the solution? Continue adding the sodium hydroxide solution drop by drop while stirring till the pink colour just appears.
- 15. PROCESS OF NEUTRALISATION • Now add one more drop of dilute hydrochloric acid. What do you observe? The solution again becomes colourless. Again add one drop of sodium hydroxide solution. Is there any change in colour? The solution again becomes pink in colour. • It is evident that when the solution is basic, phenolphthalein gives a pink colour. On the other hand, when the solution is acidic, it remains colourless.
- 16. • When an acidic solution is mixed with a basic solution, both the solutions neutralise the effect of each other. When an acid solution and a base solution are mixed in suitable amounts, both the acidic nature of the acid and the basic nature of the base are destroyed. The resulting solution is neither acidic nor basic. • In neutralisation reaction a new substance is formed. This is called salt. Salt may be acidic, basic or neutral in nature.
- 17. NEUTRALISATION REACTION • The reaction between an acid and a base is known as neutralisation. Salt and water are produced in this process with the evolution of heat. • Acid+Base → Salt+Water (Heat is evolved) • The following reaction is an example: • Hydrochloric acid (HCl) + Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) → Sodium chloride (NaCl) + Water (𝑯𝟐O)
- 18. NEUTRALISATION IN EVERYDAY LIFE •Indigestion: Our stomach contains hydrochloric acid. It helps us to digest food. But too much of acid in the stomach causes indigestion. Sometimes indigestion is painful. To relieve indigestion, we take an antacid such as milk of magnesia, which contains magnesium hydroxide. It neutralises the effect of excessive acid.
- 19. ANT BITE •When an ant bites, it injects the acidic liquid (formic acid) into the skin. The effect of the acid can be neutralised by rubbing moist baking soda (sodium hydrogencarbonate) or calamine solution, which contains zinc carbonate.
- 20. SOIL TREATEMENT • Excessive use of chemical fertilisers makes the soil acidic. Plants do not grow well when the soil is either too acidic or too basic. When the soil is too acidic, it is treated with bases like quick lime (calcium oxide) or slaked lime (calcium hydroxide). If the soil is basic, organic matter (compost) is added to it. Organic matter releases acids which neutralises the basic nature of the soil.
- 21. FACTORY WASTES •The wastes of many factories contain acids. If they are allowed to flow into the water bodies, the acids will kill fish and other organisms. The factory wastes are, therefore, neutralised by adding basic substances.
- 22. HOMEWORK 1) Define temperature. 2) What is clinical thermometer? 3) What is the range of laboratory thermometer? 4) Define sea breeze and land breeze. 5) What is thermometer? Name the two types of thermometer 6) With a neat diagram explain how to measure the temperature of a water by using laboratory thermometer. 7) Define conduction and convection.
