FAQs on Acids, Bases and Salts Class 7 Worksheet Science Chapter 2

1. What are acids and bases?
Ans. Acids are substances that release hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water, while bases are substances that release hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. Acids have a sour taste, turn blue litmus paper red, and have a pH less than 7. Bases have a bitter taste, turn red litmus paper blue, and have a pH greater than 7.
2. How do acids and bases react with each other?
Ans. When an acid and a base react with each other, they undergo a neutralization reaction. The hydrogen ions (H+) from the acid combine with the hydroxide ions (OH-) from the base to form water (H2O). The remaining ions combine to form a salt.
3. What is the importance of acids, bases, and salts in everyday life?
Ans. Acids, bases, and salts play a crucial role in various aspects of our daily lives. Acids are used in the production of fertilizers, cleaning products, and food preservation. Bases are used in cleaning agents, soaps, and pharmaceuticals. Salts are used as food additives, water softeners, and in various industrial processes.
4. How can we identify acids and bases?
Ans. Acids can be identified by their sour taste, ability to turn blue litmus paper red, and their pH value less than 7. Bases can be identified by their bitter taste, ability to turn red litmus paper blue, and their pH value greater than 7. Additionally, pH indicators such as universal indicator paper or pH meters can be used to determine the acidity or basicity of a substance.
5. Can acids and bases be found in nature?
Ans. Yes, acids and bases can be found in nature. Examples of natural acids include citric acid in citrus fruits, acetic acid in vinegar, and hydrochloric acid in the stomach. Natural bases include sodium hydroxide in lye, magnesium hydroxide in milk of magnesia, and ammonia in cleaning products.
