Acids, Bases, and Salts

अम्ल, क्षारक और लवण

In Class 10 Science, under the chapter Chemical Substances – Nature and Behaviour, students study acids, bases, and salts through their properties, reactions, and everyday examples. The topic explains how these substances behave with indicators and with one another, including neutralisation, and introduces the formation and practical importance of common salts.
