What is neutralisation?
The reaction between a base and an acid to form an salt and an acid
What salt is made from neutralisation?
It depends on the acid and base used
How can you predict the salt made?
The first part is the metal from the acid / base
The second part comes from the acid used
Write the formula equation for copper(II) oxide + sulphuric acid -> copper(II) sulphate
CuO(S) + H2SO4(AQ)-> CuSP4(AQ) + H2O(L)
What must an acidic solution contain?
H+ ions
What must an alkaline solution contain?
OH- ions
What ionic equation represents the production of water in neutralisation?
H+ + OH- -> H2O(L)
