(a) iron (III) chloride,
(b) sodium sulphate,
(c) sodium zincate
(d) iron (II) sulphate,

Question. Define the term neutralization:
(a) Give a reaction, mentioning clearly acid and base used in the reaction.
(b) if one mole of a strong acid reacts with one mole of a strong base, the heat produced is always the same. Why?
Answer.
Neutralization is the process by which H+ ions of an acid react completely with the [OH]- ions of a base to give salt and water only.
(a) NaOH + HCl ⟶ NaCI + H2O
(b) Neutralization is simply a reaction between H+ ions given by strong acid and OH-ions given by strong base. In case of all strong acids and strong bases, the number of H+ and OH- ions produced by one mole of a strong acid or strong base is always same. Hence the heat of neutralization of a strong acid with strong base is always same.

Question. Explain why:
(a) It is necessary to find out the ration of reactants required in the preparation of sodium sulphate.
(b) fused calcium chloride is used in the preparation of FeCI3?
Answer. (a) Since sodium hydroxide and sulphuric acid are both soluble, an excess of either of them cannot be removed by filtration. Therefore it is necessary to find out on small scale, the ratio of solutions of the two reactants. (b) As iron chloride is highly deliquescent, so it is kept dry with the help of fused calcium chloride.

For example: Caustic soda, Caustic potash

Question. Explain clearly how conc, H2SO4 is used as dehydrating as well as drying agent.

Question. The skin has and needs natural oils. Why is it advisable to wear gloves while working with strong allkalis?
Answer. 
As we know that alkalis react with oil to form soap. As our skin contains oil so when we touch strong alkalis, a reaction takes place and soapy solution is formed. Hence we should wear gloves

Question. Why are alkalis soapy to touch? What do you understand by PH value?
Answer. Alkalis are soapy to touch as they react with oils of our skin to form soaps.
pH of a solution is the negative logarithm to the base 10 of hydrogen ion concentration expressed in moles per litre.

Question. Distinguish between:
(a) a common acid base indicator and a universal indicator,
(b) acidity of bases and basicity of acids,
(c) acid and alkali (other than indicators).
Answer. 
(a) A common acid base indicator and a universal indicator:
Acid base indicator like litmus tells us only whether a given substance is an acid or a base. Universal indicator gives an idea as to how acidic or basic a substance is. An universal indicator gives different colours with solutions of different p H values.
(b) Acidity of bases and basicity of acids
Acidity of bases: The number of hydroxyl ions which can be produced per molecule of the base in aqueous solution.
Basicity of acid: The basicity of an acid is defined as the number of hydronium ions that can be produced by the ionization of one molecule of that acid in aqueous solution.
(c) Acid and alkali:
An acid is that substance which gives H+ ions when dissolved in water
An alkali is that substance which gives OH- ions when dissolved in water.

Question. How does tooth enamel get damaged? What should be done to prevent it?
Answer. Substances like chocolates and sweets are degraded by bacteria present in our mouth. When the p H falls to 5.5 tooth decay starts. Tooth enamel is the hardest substance in our body and it gets corroded. The saliva produced by salivary glands is slightly alkaline, it helps to increase the p H , to some extent, but tooth paste which contain basic substance is used to neutralize excess acid in the mouth.

Question.
(a) How is lead sulphate prepared in the aboratory?
(b) Why lead sulphate cannot be prepared by the action of dilute H2SO4 on lead oxide?
Answer. 
(a) Lead sulphate is prepared from insoluble lead oxide, by first converting lead oxide into soluble lead nitrate with dilute nitric acid and then treating the resulting solution with sulphuric acid to obtain white ppt. of Lead sulphate.
PbO + 2HNO3 ⟶ Pb(NO3)2 + H2O
Pb(NO3)2 + H2SO4 ⟶ PbSO4 + 2HNO3
(b) Lead sulfate is insoluble, when lead is added to sulfuric acid it only reacts on the surface. The lead becomes coated with insoluble lead sulfate and the lead in the interior can't react. Therefore lead sulfate cannot be prepared by adding dilute sulfuric acid.

Question. Describe giving all practical details, how would you prepare:
(a) Copper sulphate crystals from a mixture of charcoal and black copper oxide,
(b) zinc sulphate crystals from zinc dust (powdered zinc and zinc oxide),
(c) lead sulphate from metallic lead,
(d) sodium hydrogen carbonate crystals.
Answer. 
(a) Copper sulphate crystals from mixture of charcoal and black copper oxide:
The carbon in the charcoal reduces the black copper oxide to reddish-brown copper. The lid must not be removed until the crucible is cool or the hot copper will be re-oxidized by air.
Take dilute sulphuric acid in a beaker and heat it on wire gauze. Add cupric oxide in small quantities at a time, with stirring till no more of it dissolves and the excess compound settles to the bottom.
Filter it hot and collect the filtrate in china dish. Evaporate the filtrate by heating to the point of crystallization and then allow it to cool and collect the crystals of copper sulphate penta-hydrate.
Reaction: CuO + H2SO4 ⟶ CuSO4 + H2O
CuSO4 + 5H2O ⟶ CuSO4. 5H2O
(b) Zinc sulphate crystals from Zinc dust:
Take dilute sulphuric acid in a beaker and heat it on wire gauze. Add some granulated zinc pieces with constant stirring. Add till the Zinc settles at base of the beaker. Effervescences take place because of liberation of hydrogen gas. When effervescence stops, it indicates that all the acid has been used up. The excess of zinc is filtered off. Collect the solution in china dish and evaporate the solution to get crystals. Filter, wash them with water and dry them between the folds of paper. The white needle crystals are of hydrated Zinc sulphate.
Reaction: Zn + H2SO4 ZnSO4 + H2
ZnSO4 + 7 H2O⟶ ZnSO4. 7 H2O
(c) Lead sulphate from metallic lead:
Metallic lead is converted to lead oxide by oxidation. Then lead sulphate is prepared from insoluble lead oxide, by first converting it into soluble lead nitrate. Then the lead nitrate solution is treated with sulphuric acid to obtain white ppt. of Lead sulphate.
Reaction:
PbO + 2HNO3 ⟶ Pb(NO3)2 + H2O
 Pb(NO3)2 + H2SO4 ⟶ PbSO4 + 2HNO3
(d) Sodium hydrogen carbonate crystals:
Dissolve 5 grams of anhydrous sodium carbonate in about 25 ml of distilled water in a flask. Cool the solution by keeping the flask in a freezing mixture. Pass carbon dioxide gas in the solution. Crystals of sodium bicarbonate will precipitate out after sometime. Filter the crystals and dry it in folds of filter paper.
Reaction: Na2CO3 + CO2 + H2O ⟶ 2NaHCO3
