Checking) pH Scale:

2. Review: Based on the pictures given,

identify which of the examples are homogeneous and
heterogeneous mixtures.

Motivation:

1. The learners will be given pictures of foods.

2. The learners then identify the taste of these foods,

either bitter or sour.

Vinegar
Medicine tablet pH, also known as the “power of hydrogen”, is
a numerical value used to specify whether a
substance or a mixture is acidic, basic or
neutral. pH below 7 is considered “acidic”,
IV. Learning Activity:
while pH above seven is considered “basic”.
a.) Learners will be given materials (cartolinas,
Otherwise, if the pH is equal to 7, a substance or
permanent markers, instructional material) a mixture is said to be “neutral”. pH is usually
determined using a pH scale.

Indicators:
Litmus Papers
Litmus papers are also used in determining whether a
solution is acidic or basic. Litmus blue turns to red if
the solution is acidic and litmus red turns blue if the
solution is basic.
Litmus red turns to blue: solution is basic
Litmus blue turns to red: solution is acidic
Red Cabbage
Red cabbage juice is an example of natural indicators.
Red cabbage has a substance called “anthocyanin”, a
purple pigment that changes from red to green,
depending on the pH.
Key Concept:
An indicator is a dye that changes in into a
different color depending on the substance or
mixture subjected is either an acid or a base. It is
commonly used to determine an unknown pH of a
certain sample.
VI. Application:
a.) A video presentation of reactions between
indicators and substances/mixtures to see the changes
undergoes.
b.) Learners will be asked to complete the table for 5

minutes.
VII. Generalization:
Acids are substances/mixtures that have a pH
of 1.0 to 6.0. Bases are substances/mixtures that have a
pH of 8.0 to 14.0. These are observed using natural
indicators. Indicators are materials that are used to
identify the pH of solutions/substances/mixtures
depending on the resulting color.
VIII. Valuing:
Acids and bases can be found anywhere
around us. Pickling (an example of food preservation)
requires an acidic solution to inhibit microbial growth.
pH of rainwater should be around 5.6 or else we will
experience “acid rain”. Baby soaps must be neutral so
that babies won’t experience eye irritations. Plants may
grow depending on the pH of soil. Some plants prefer
acidic soil and some prefer basic soil. Farmers need to
know the pH of soil as plants only grow on narrow pH
range.
IX. Evaluation:
a.) The teacher will present a table and a box filled
with words that are properties or examples of acids and
bases.
b.) For 10 minutes, learners will be asked to fill the
column of acids and bases using those words in a box.

X. Homework

1. What would happen if an acid and a base combined?

2. What would happen when an acid is reacted to a

metal?

3. Give properties of metals.
