Topics 6
- Acids, bases and alkalis: definitions in terms of ions; ionisation and dissociation equations
- Indicators (litmus, methyl orange, phenolphthalein), pH scale, pH paper and universal indicator
- Salts: definition; normal, acid, basic and complex salts
- Action of dilute acids on carbonates, hydrogen carbonates, sulphites, hydrogen sulphites and sulphides
- Preparation of normal salts: direct combination, displacement and precipitation (double decomposition)
- Preparation of normal salts: neutralisation of an insoluble base, titration of an alkali, and acids on carbonates and bicarbonates
