Acids, Bases And Salts Poem by Swila Bathool

Acids, Bases and salts are a part of chemistry
here we are out to solve a mystery

Acids are substances that are highly sour
gives off H+ ions in H2O and is easy to pour

They are corrosive and turn blue to red
conducts electricity, don’t interchange instead

Bases are substances that give out?
OH- ions in H2O, a silly doubt

Are slippery to touch, bitter to taste
turn red to blue in a haste

There are numerous types of salts
common salt, I can say it without a fault

Acidic, Basic and Neutral vary
interpret them by the concentrations they carry

A strong acid and a weak base
is an Acidic salt, depends on the case

Weak acid and if the base is strong
it’s a basic salt, it isn't wrong

If both are strong then you can guess
its neutral, and say a yes

Want to know much about them?
peep more, more into chem.
