Change blue litmus paper colour to red.

Properties of acid :
React with base to form metal salt and water.
For example Hydrochloric acid will react with Potassium Hydroxide to form Potassium chloride and water.
HCl + KOH → KCl + H2OFor example Sulphuric acid will react with Zinc Oxide to form Zinc sulphate and water.
H2SO4 + ZnO → ZnSO4 + H2OReact with reactive metal to form metal salt and liberate H2 gas.
For example Nitric acid react with Magnesium to form Magnesium nitrates.
2HNO3 + Mg → Mg(NO3)2 + H2React with metal carbonate to form metal salt, CO2 and water.
For example Sulphuric acid react with Calcium carbonate
H2SO4 + CaCO3 →CaSO4 + H2O + CO2
