No, they have a low PH. Acids have a high PH. But they can both be dangerous at high and low levels so be careful!

FUN FACT: Technically, paper is an acid. You write on acid all the time!

Does a high pH kill fish?

Yes. Most strong bases (pH above 9) can kill a fish.


What are some acids which are neutralised by bases?

any acid is buffered by a base. Acids are low pH and bases are high. it depends on the relationship between the two as to which combination will result in a neutral pH.


Strong bases have pH values ranging from 11 to 14?

Something with the pH of 8 is always going to be a base no matter what. If something has the pH of 6.9 or below it always is an acid something with a pH of 8 no matter what is always a base. Neutral is the pH of 7.


Dose a strong base have the lowest pH?

No, a strong base has a high pH, typically above 7. Strong bases dissociate in water to release hydroxide ions, which can increase the pH of a solution. The higher the concentration of hydroxide ions, the higher the pH and the more basic the solution.


Why do you think bases are often described as the opposites of acids'?

1) Bronsted-Lowry acids are proton donors. Bronsted-Lowry bases are proton acceptors. 2) Lewis acids are electron acceptors. Lewis bases are electron donors.


How can you tell acids from bases?

Acids have a lower PH and bases have a higher PH.


Do acids have a high or low pH scale?

an acid is on the left side of the scale. that means the low nubers like 1,2,3. bases are on the right side or high numbers like12,13,14. did you knowthat 14 is the highest number it can go ( that I know of).


Which has a high pH level sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide?

Both are strong bases and a solution of either will have a high pH.


What number may represent the pH value of bases?

The pH of bases is over 7.


Where on the pH scale is the bases?

Bases are anything above a 7 on the pH scale. A substance with a pH of 7 is considered neutral.


Dose a base have a pH of greater or less than 7?

If I remember correctly, bases have low pH and acids have high pH; therefore, a base would definitely be less than 7.


What range on the pH is acids and bases?
