Amphoteric
Proteins can act as acids or bases because they contain ionizable groups, such as amino and carboxyl groups, which can donate or accept protons depending on the pH of their environment. This ability to donate or accept protons allows proteins to participate in acid-base reactions.
Strong acids and bases react more easily with materials than weak acids and bases because they completely dissociate into ions, making them more reactive. Weak acids and bases only partially dissociate, limiting their reactivity with materials.
yes pd can react with acids and bases because of um
Acids and bases react to form water and a salt compound. The reaction occurs because acids donate protons (H+) while bases accept protons. This proton transfer leads to the formation of water and a salt.
Indicators are compounds that react with acids and bases to make certain colors. (:
Bases can react with acids to form salts and water. Metals can also react with acids to produce hydrogen gas and a salt. Additionally, carbonates and bicarbonates can react with acids to form carbon dioxide gas, water, and a salt.
Acids react -in most cases, but not exclusively- well with basic (alkaline) compounds.
Aluminum and zinc are metals that react with both acids and bases. In acids, they undergo a displacement reaction to form a salt and hydrogen gas. In bases, they react to form a salt and hydrogen gas as well.
Bases can react with acids to form salts and water. They can also react with certain metals to produce hydrogen gas. Additionally, some bases can react with fats and oils in a process known as saponification.
neutralization
yes
Acids can cause corrosion and burns on skin and surfaces due to their ability to donate protons, while bases can be corrosive too and cause irritation due to their ability to accept protons. Acids can react with metals to produce hydrogen gas, and they can also denature proteins. Bases can saponify fats and oils, and they can also hydrolyze proteins.
