✧ 
♨ The word ' acid ' is derived from the Latin word ' acidus ' which means sour. An acid is defined as the substance which gives hydrogen ions or protons ( H+ ) when dissolved in water. For example :
- Hydrochloric acid
- Sulphuric acid
- Nitric acid
- Carbonic acid
- Acetic acid
✎ 
☃ Physical properties :
- Acids have a sour taste. But some acids like steric acid, boric acid , salisylic acid do not have a sour taste. Laboratory acids are more corrosive , so they are dangerous to taste.
- Acid turn blue colour of litmus paper into red and light yellow methyl orange into red. They make phenolphthalein colourless.
☂ Chemical properties :
- Acids have a high dissolving power and dissolve many substances. Some metals like zinc and magnesium react with acids like dilute sulphuric acid and dilute hydrochloric acid to produce salt and hydrogen gas.
- Acid react with base to give salt and water.
- Acid gives H+ ions when dissolved in water.
- Acid react with metallic carbonates to produce carbon dioxide.

The given sentence is part of a longer question.
I found this question with the same sentence. So, I will help you using this question:
For the reaction N2O4<span>(g) ⇄ 2NO</span>2(g), a reaction mixture at a certain temperature initially contains both N2O4 and NO2 in their standard states (meaning they are gases with a pressure of 1 atm<span>). If </span>Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before
any reaction occurs?
(a) Q = K<span>; The reaction </span>is at equilibrium.
(b) Q < K<span>;
The reaction </span>will proceed to
the right.
(c) Q > K<span>; The reaction </span>will proceed to the left.
The answer is the option (c) Q > K<span>; The reaction will proceed to the </span>left,
since Qp<span> = </span>1<span>, and 1 > 0.15.</span>
Explanation:
Kp is the equilibrium constant in term of the partial pressures of the gases.
Q is the reaction quotient. It is a measure of the progress of a chemical reaction.
The reaction quotient has the same form of the equilibrium constant but using the concentrations or partial pressures at any moment.
At equilibrium both Kp and Q are equal. Q = Kp
If Q < Kp then the reaction will go to the right (forward reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium,
If Q > Kp then the reaction will go to the left (reverse reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium.
Here, the state is that both pressures are 1 atm, so Q = (1)^2 / 1 = 1.
Since, Q = 1 and Kp = 0.15, Q > Kp and the reaction will proceed to the left.
