INTRODUCTION
Acid and alkali are very useful substances in our daily lives. The word acid comes from
the Latin word acidus, which means sour. Acid is present in fruits and items we use daily.
Alkali is a substance with a bitter taste and soapy feel. There are acids and alkalis in the
laboratory. Many household products contain acids and alkalis too. For example, car
batteries contain sulphuric acid and household cleaners contain alkalis.
TASK
Carry out the following activity:
Task 1
1. There are 6 solutions labeled P,Q, R, S, T, U in the beaker.
