《IGCSE science Chemistry study notes》C8- Acids, bases and salts
Advertisement
Preparation: Mixing together elements and compounds. For an aqueous solution, add water.
Separation and purification:
- Distillation. Salty water is heated so that the water evaporates and condenses back into water in the condenser, leaving behind the salt in the flask.
- Filtration. Used to separate an insoluble solid from a liquid.
Crystallisation: Evaporating the solution to a much smaller volume and then leaving it to cool. As the solution cools, crystals form and these can be obtained by filtration.
Acid + Alkali -> Salt + Water
Hydrochloric Acid + Sodium Hydroxide -> Sodium Chloride + Water
Hal + NaOH -> NaCl + H2O
Add 30cm^2 of sodium hydroxide to a flask
Add 2 drops of the indicator phenolphthalein
Add the hydrochloric acid to the flask
The solution will turn colorless when neutralized
Heat the solution to evaporate the liquid and obtain the salt
Acid + Metal -> Salt + Hydrogen
Sulphuric Acid + Zinc -> Zinc Sulphate + Hydrogen
H2SO4 + Zn -> ZnSO4 + H2
Add zinc to a flask of the acid
When zinc dissolves, hydrogen bubbles will appear
Filter the solution to remove the excess zinc
Heat the solution to evaporate the liquid and obtain the salt
Acid + Base -> Salt + Water
Sulphuric Acid + Iron (II) Oxide -> Iron Sulphate + Water
H2SO4 + FeO -> FeSO4 + H2O
Add and excess iron oxide to the sulphuric acid
Filter the solution to remove the excess iron oxide
Heat the solution to evaporate the liquid and obtain the salt
Describe the following tests to identify aqueous cations
Ammonium -> Add dilute sodium hydroxide, warm up -> Ammonia gas is released, damp red litmus paper turns blue
Copper (II) -> Add dilute sodium hydroxide or ammonia solution -> A blue precipitate forms
Iron (II) -> Add dilute sodium hydroxide or ammonia solution -> A pale green precipitate forms
Iron (II) -> Add dilute sodium hydroxide or ammonia solution -> A red - brown precipitate forms
Zinc -> Add dilute sodium hydroxide or ammonia solution -> A white precipitate forms

A King's Regret - Ravenchild
Alwnn is shrouded by the fog of war. Dracones Auryelin, former ruler of the imperial territory, is dead by an assassin’s blade. His mistress and child are missing, presumed slain. His sworn brother, Dracones Uthyr leads what little remains of their legion in a desperate defence of a far-flung, effectively abandoned territory against demons, magical beasts and men. The culprit of this disaster Vertigan, son of a former ally, has declared himself High King and renounced his father's imperial ties. Vertigan’s bid for power had hinged on two key points. The first was capturing Auryelin’s mistress, the imperial sorceress charged with maintaining Alwnn’s mystical protections, alive. The second was the trustworthiness of his barbarian mercenaries. His demon-worshipping, barbarian mercenaries. As all sides seek to attain their own goals a young sorcerer emerges from the cursed woods of Alwnn.

A Stone's Throw
Mackenzie Nichols has lost her grandfather Frederick. His sudden passing hits her and her family hard, but the Nichols are sturdy people. One of the few things she can take as a momento is her grandfather's old and strangely obediant cat, Macaroon. As the difficult day ends Mackenzie and her family learn that the funeral home preparing Frederick's body for cremation has been damaged by a burst water main. Though his body and the mortician are fine, he had to be moved to another home. Seemingly disturbed by this, Macaroon suddenly acts erratic and runs into the night. Worried, but not able to look for him, Mackaneize tries to sleep. She is awoken later that night when Macaroon returns home and uses the phone to call someone, talking to them. Surprised and confused Mackenzie follows him with the help of her friend Martin before being thrust into the secret world of her Witch grandfather and his fearsome familiar.

Faeos Book One: The Stuff of Legends
A ragtag assemblage of adventurers, scraped together by seeming circumstance, investigate the theft of an ecologically essential artifact. In so doing, they find themselves embroiled (as adventurers so often do) in the larger machinations of a mischevious gnome, a determined mage or three, and a dire threat to their homes. Based on a homebrew Pathfinder campaign begun several years ago, and still running. Faeos is one part combat, one part character building, and one part entirely justified silliness. Blame any lead character weirdnesses on my players, whom I love. Blame everything else on me. Oh, and yes, this should also be tagged "Unreliable Narrator."
