tube. The evolved gas was then passed through lime water. What change would be
observed in lime water? What will happen if excess of gas is passed through lime water?
With the help of balanced chemical equations for all the changes, explain the observations.
4. A student detected the pH of four unknown solutions A, B, C, and D as follows: 11, 5, 7
and 2. Predict the nature of the solution.
5. What is meant by “p” and “H” in pH? (CBSE 2014)
6. Fresh milk has a pH of 6. When it changes into curd (Yoghurt), will its pH value increase
or decrease? Why?
7. How is the pH of the solution of an acid influenced when it is diluted? (CBSE 2012)
