ASSIGNMENT

CHAPTER : ACIDS, BASES AND SALTS

With the help of an example explain what happens when a base reacts with a non- metallic oxide. What
do you infer about the nature of non-metal oxide?

What is observed when carbon dioxide gas is passed through lime water

(i) for a short duration?

(ii) for a long duration? Also write the chemical equations for the reactions involved.

2 mL of sodium hydroxide solution is added to a few pieces of granulated zinc metal taken in a test tube

Write the equation of the chemical reaction involved and the test to detect the gas. Name the gas which
will be evolved when the same metal reacts with dilute solution of a strong acid.

On diluting an acid, it is advised to add acid to water and not water to acid. Explain why it is so advised?

Explain the difference between with chemical equation

Displacement and double displacement

Exothermic and endothermic

Combination and decomposition reactions

Illustrate an activity to investigate whether all compounds containing hydrogen are acidic

An aqueous solution ‘A’ turns phenolphthalein solution pink. On addition of an aqueous solution ‘B’ to ‘A’
the pink colour disappears. The following statement is true for solution ‘A’ and ‘B’:
(a) A is strongly basic and B is a weak base.

(b) A is strongly acidic and B is a weak acid.

(c) A has pH greater than 7 and B has pH less than 7.

(d) A has pH less than 7 and B has pH greater than 7.

Three acidic solutions A, B and C have pH = 0, 3 and 5 respectively.

(i) Which solution has highest concentration of H+ ions?

Sodium hydrogen carbonate is a basic salt”. Justify this statement. How is it converted into washing
soda?

10

Write the chemical formula and name of Bleaching powder. How is bleaching powder prepared? For
what purpose is it used in drinking water?

11

List the important products of the Chlor-alkali process. Write one important use of each

12

Give reasons for the following:

(i) Only one half of water molecule is shown in the formula of plaster of Paris.

(ii) Sodium hydrogen carbonate is used as an antacid.

(iii) On strong heating, blue coloured copper sulphate crystals turn white

13

During electrolysis of brine, a gas ‘G’ is liberated at anode. When this gas ‘G’ is passed through slaked
lime, a compound ‘C’ is formed, which is used for disinfecting drinking water.

(i) Write formula of ‘G’ and ‘C’.

(ii) State the chemical equations involved.

(iii) What is common name of compound ‘C’ ? Give its chemical name.

14

pH of a salt used to make tasty and crispy pakoras is 9

. Identify the salt and write a chemical equation for its formation. List its two uses.

15
solution of a substance ‘X’ is used for white washing.

(i) Name the substance ‘X’ and write its formula.

(ii) Write the reaction of the substance ‘X’ named in (i) above with water.
