What would be the colour of the indicators in neutral solution?
Write the formulae of sodium chloride and sodium carbonate. Explain why an aqueous solution of sodium chloride is neutral but an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate is basic (or alkaline). Write chemical equations of the reactions involved.
No observable change is noticed when dilute hydrochloric acid is added to :(1)sodium hydroxide solution(2)sodium carbonate solution(3) blue litmus solution(4) zinc metal
The aqueous solution of one of the following salt will turn red litmus to blue. This salt is:(a) Potassium sulphate (b) Sodium sulphate (c) Sodium chloride (d) Potassium carbonate
What will happen if a solution of sodium hydro carbonate is heated? Give the equation of the reaction involved.
Which one of the following solutions would you use to test the pH of a given sample?(1)blue litmus solution(2)red litmus solution(3) universal indicator solution(4)mixture of red and blue litmus solution
A drop of colourless liquid was placed on blue litmus paper. The litmus paper turned red. The liquid could be :(1)dilute hydrochloric acid(2)dilute sodium hydroxide solution(3) distilled water(4)sodium bicarbonate solution
Would the results of dry baking soda and solution of baking soda on dry litmus paper be same? Why?
A student placed a pinch of solid sodium hydrogencarbonate on a strip of red litmus paper. He found that the colour of red litmus paper strip :
Baking soda is a mixture of :(a) Sodium carbonate and acetic acid(b) Sodium carbonate and tartaric acid(c) Sodium hydrogen carbonate and tartaric acid(d) Sodium hydrogen carbonate and acetic acid
When it comes to the litmus paper the colour remains the same in neutral solution. If we take the blue litmus then it'll show a red colour in acidic solution and blue colour in basic solution, blue colour will remain in nuteral too. So then how can we identify that solution?
What is the colour of phynosphtaline in basic solution?
When a student added red litmus to an aqueous solution, the red litmus turned blue. Which one of the following should be added in excess so that the change in colour is reversed?(1) baking soda solution (2) lime water (3) vinegar solution (4) ammonia solution
An aqueous solution turns red litmus solution blue. Excess addition of which of the following solution would reverse the change?Baking powderLimeAmmonium hydroxide solutionHydrochloric acid
