Concept Notes:

ACIDS
PROPERTIES 1. Acid tastes sour. (Not
applicable to taste acid.)
2. Acids react with other metal.
3. When they are in aqueous
solutions acids turn blue litmus
paper to red.
4. Acids react with bases to form
salts and water
BASES
1. Bases taste bitter. (Not advisable to taste.)
2. Bases feel slippery or soapy.
3. Bases reacts with grease and oils. 4. When
they are in aqueous solutions, bases turn red
litmus paper to blue.
