Exploring Acids, Bases, and Organic Chemistry

What are three common properties of acids?

• They do not conduct electricity

• They taste sweet

• Three common properties of acids are: they taste sour, they conduct electricity, and they react with bases.

• They do not react with bases

How do acids typically taste?

• Bitter

• Salty

• Sweet

• Sour

What is the pH range of acids?

• -1 to 0

• 0 to 6.9

• 7 to 14

• 6.9 to 10

What are three common properties of bases?

• They turn blue litmus paper red

• They feel rough

• Three common properties of bases are: 1) They taste bitter, 2) They feel slippery, and 3) They turn red litmus paper blue.

• They taste sweet

How do bases typically feel to the touch?

• sticky and tacky

• slippery or soapy

• rough and gritty

• cold and metallic

What is the pH range of bases?

• 0 to 7

State Le Chatelier's Principle in your own words.

• If a change is made to a system at equilibrium, the system will shift in a direction that counteracts the change.

• The system will only shift towards the side with more reactants.

• Any change will cause the system to collapse completely.

• The system will always remain unchanged regardless of external factors.

How does increasing temperature affect an exothermic reaction according to Le Chatelier's Principle?

• Increasing temperature shifts the equilibrium to the left, favoring reactants.

• Increasing temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right, favoring products.

• Increasing temperature increases the rate of the reaction without affecting equilibrium.

• Increasing temperature has no effect on the equilibrium position.

What is the effect of adding more reactants to a system at equilibrium?

• The reaction stops completely.

• The equilibrium shifts to the left, favoring reactant formation.

• The equilibrium shifts to the right, favoring product formation.

• The equilibrium remains unchanged.

Define a functional group in organic chemistry.

• A functional group is a specific group of atoms in an organic molecule that determines its chemical properties and reactions.

• A functional group is a type of chemical bond between two atoms.

• A functional group is a category of organic compounds based on their molecular weight.

• A functional group is a random arrangement of atoms in a molecule.
