Litmus paper is commonly used to determine if a solution is acidic or basic. Which of the following statements is TRUE about litmus paper? a) If the blue litmus paper turns red the substance is basic/base. b) If the red litmus paper turns blue the substance is acidic/acid. c) If the blue turns red and red litmus paper didn’t change the substance is neutral. d) If the red turns blue and blue litmus paper didn’t change the substance is basic/base.
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
