Description
Welcome! This listing features a full-page activity that checks students’ understanding about acid and base properties, molecular classification, reactions, dissociation patterns, and their effect on pH. I assign this activity in my eighth-grade physical science class. High school chemistry teachers could utilize this lesson as a reinforcement activity as well.
-
In the first section, students write “A” on the line if the species/substance is an acid, “B” on the line if it is a base, and “N” on the line if it is neither an acid nor a base. There are 42 species to classify. Many are compounds, while others are molecules, monatomic and polyatomic ions. I offer hints in the instructional paragraph to assist students with learning the structural component patterns of acid and base classification.
-
In the second section, students complete and balance six chemical acid – base neutralization reactions. Students also are instructed to write “a” below the acid, “b” below the base and “s” under the salt produced.
-
In the third miscellaneous section, students identify three properties of acids and three properties of bases before answering a series of fill-in-the-blank questions. I included a word/answer bank for the fill in the blank section.
I provided a complete key with the detailed answers in bold red font.
This PDF document will become editable upon conversion to Microsoft Word with an Adobe Acrobat DC Reader program.
This resource complements the following acid and base-themed activities in my store.
