CHEMISTRY SHENANIGANS

Acids
-solid, liquid or gas at SATP (25°, 100kPa)
-form conducting aqueous solutions
-turns blue litmus red
-dissolve in water to produce H+
-taste sour

-turn red litmus paper blue
-slippery
-nonconductive
-dissolve in water to produce OH-

- acids are aqueous (dissolved in water)
- hydrogen compounds are acids
-HCL_(aq) ---> Hydrochloric Acid
-H₂SO_4(aq) ---> Sulfuric Acid
-Hydogen appears first in the formula unless it is part of a polyatiomic group
-CH₃COOH_(aq) ---> Acetic Acid
-classical rules use the suffix ic and/or the prefix hydro-
ex. Hydrochloric acid
-IUPAC systme uses the aqueous hydrogen compound
ex. HCL_(aq) ---> Aqueous Hydrogen Chloride

-for now, all bases will be aqueous solutions of ionic hydroxide
-NaOH
-Ba(OH)₂
-use the cation name followed by hydroxide
-sodium hydroxide
-barium hydroxide

EXAMPLES:
-HI_(aq) hdroiodic acid
-H₃PO_4(aq) phospheric acid
-H₃PO_3(aq) phosphorous acid
-HNO_3(aq) nitric acid
-HNO_2(aq) nitrous acid
-Mg(OH)_2(aq) magnesium hyfroxide
-HBr_(aq) hydrobromic acid
-HOOCCOOH_(aq) oxalic acid

In additon to the notes we took today, Mr. Doktor also showed us a demo for acids and bases. We had baking soda ready to neurtalize the extremely, strong smell it produced.

Heres a video on how to make a ph indicator with red cabbage:
