hi im just starting a level chemistry and i am not aware that you need water to find out if something is acid or alkali, you could use a indicator such as universal indicator or methyl orange and so on, or you could use indicator paper. If this helps good, if not sorry. Jack
No gas is produced in the reaction of an acid and an alkali. In a neutralisation reaction, acid + alkali -> salt + water
Alkali. IF something contains hydroxide ions it is an alkali.
Water is neither acid or alkali it is neutral
It is an acid
no you do not always need water to see whether something is acid or alkali
The Answer is Salt. Acid + Akali = Water + Salt

It is an acid
acid+alkali=salt+water
It is neither acid nor alkali because it is not in water!
An Acid is neutralised by a Base , Alkali or Carboinate. Remember the general equations. Acid + Alkali = Salt + Water Acid + Base = Salt + Water Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soluble Base.
Water is neutral.
