Practise MYP Chemistry questions on 5.7 Acid and Base Characteristics and review the explanations to check your understanding.
Use these questions for topic practice and to find ideas you want to revisit in your notes or lessons.
Which observation uniquely identifies the reaction of an acid with a carbonate compared to its reaction with a metal oxide?
What are the three products typically formed when an acid reacts with a metal carbonate?
Non-metal oxides, such as sulfur dioxide or carbon dioxide, are typically classified as __________ oxides because they react with bases to form a salt and water.
What is the primary safety reason for the guideline that chemical bottles should be carried with two hands in the laboratory?
True or False: When a base reacts with a non-metal oxide, the standard products of the reaction are a salt and hydrogen gas.

Effervescence occurs due to gas production
The solution becomes warmer
