Question

Acids are compound which are ........(I)...... in taste and react with metals sulphates to produce ........(2)...... gas. Bases are compounds which are ........(3)...... in taste and those bases which dissociate in water to yield hydroxyl ion $\left(O{H}^{-}\right)$ are called ........(4)...... Acid and base undergoes neutralisation reaction to give ........(5)...... and water.

• A. (1) sour (2) carbon dioxide (3) Bitter (4) alkalies (5) salt
• B. (1) sweet (2) carbon dioxide (3) sour (4) alkalies (5) salt
• C. (1) salty (2) sulphur dioxide (3) sour (4) alkalies (5) salt
• D. (1) sour (2) sulphur dioxide (3) Bitter (4) alkalies (5) salt

Answer 1

The correct option is D (1) sour (2) sulphur dioxide (3) Bitter (4) alkalies (5) salt

Acids are compound which are sour in taste and reacts with metals sulphates to produce sulphur dioxide gas. Bases are compounds which are bitter in taste and those bases which dissociate in water to yield hydroxyl ion $\left(O{H}^{-}\right)$ are called alkalies. Acid and base undergoes neutralisation reaction to give salt and water.

Hence, option $D$ is correct.
