    Uploaded by

    skeltenboi
    This document outlines a laboratory experiment to observe the properties of acids and bases. The experiment involves observing the reactions of acids with metals, carbonates, and bases. It also involves measuring the pH of acid, neutral, and basic solutions using a pH meter. Magnesium, calcium carbonate, hydrochloric acid, and sodium hydroxide are used. The objectives are to observe acid-metal reactions, acid-carbonate reactions, and acid-base reactions, as well as to measure the pH of solutions with different concentrations.

    Observe the reaction of acids with base

    Measure the pH of acid, neutral solution and base

    Material:
    1.

    Hydrochloric acid 1.0 mol dm-3

    2.

    Sodium hydroxide 1.0 mol dm-3

    small piece of calcium carbonate (egg shell) into the acid. Observe the reaction. Test the
    gas with burning wooden splint.
    3. Add approximately 1 cm3 of 0.1 mol dm-3 of hydrochloric acid into a test tube. Add equal
    amount of 0.1 mol dm-3 of sodium hydroxide into the test tube. Observe for any signs of
    reaction.
