Key concepts/skills: Level 1: Define key vocabulary. Level 2: Identify the basic properties of acids and bases and determine acid or base using litmus paper. Level 3: Recognize the pH scale and the numerical relationship between the acids and the bases on the scale.

I.Acids A.All solutions are either acid, bases or neutral. B.Acids- substances that release H+ ions when in solution. 1.Feel sticky and taste sour 2.Hydrogen ion H+ is what makes acids so corrosive and dangerous 3.H+ is an ion with no electrons/ will take electrons from any atom
5
C. Bases – substances that release hydroxide ions when in solution (alkaline) 1.Feel slippery and taste bitter 2.Hydroxide ions OH- is what makes bases corrosive or dangerous 3.OH- will give electron to any atom 4.Bases are good cleaners because they loosen dirt without damaging like acids 5.When acids and bases are combined, the OH- and the H+ combine to form a salt and H2O which is neutral
6
D. Litmus paper – used to determine whether a solution is acid or base 1. Blue litmus paper turns red for acid, no change not an acid 2. Red litmus paper turns blue for base, no change not a base 3. If neither paper changes solution is neutral

E. pH Scale – potential H+ ions 1.The pH scale quantifies the amount of H+ and OH- in any solution 2.Goes from 0 – 14 3.0- is the acid end of the scale 4.7 is neutral 5.14 is the basic end of the scale 6.The scale is log-base 10 (this means that a 5 is ten times more acidic than a 6)
