What is the pH difference between a strong base and a weak base on the pH scale?
If you are using the common English definitions of "strong" (meaning 'more') and "weak" (meaning 'less'), then a strong base will have a pH of 12-14 while a weak base will have a pH of 7-9. However, there is a specific scientific definition of 'strong' and 'weak' when used to describe acids and bases. In chemistry, a 'strong base' is a base that completely ionizes in water while a 'weak base' is a base that partially ionizes in water. If you are using these definitions, there is no way to categorically compare the pH of a strong base versus the pH of a weak base - the two variables do not related. Some strong (complete ionization) bases will have a lower pH (7-9) while other strong (complete ionization) bases will have a higher pH (12-14); the same is true of weak (partial ionization) bases.
What are liquids with the pH level of 10?
They are medium-strong bases. Anything with a pH level over 7 is a base, 8 being a weak base and 12 being a strong base. Anything Below 7 is an acid, 6 being a weak acid and 0 being a strong acid.
What pH value represents a strong base?
A strong base has a pH level from 12-14.
Is strong base on the pH scale is it 3?
Bases run from 7.1 to 14 on the ph scale. A strong base would be in the 12-14 range. A 3ph is a relatively strong acid.
What pH is a weak alkali?
Strong Acid ; pH = 1-3 Weak acid ; pH = 4-6 Neutral ; pH 7 Weak alkali ; pH = 8 -10 ( The answer) Strong Alkali ; pH = 11- 14

Is bleach a weak or strong acid?
It's a base not an acid usually containing the hypochlorite ion. The pH is usually about 12.
What pH value represents a strong base?
A strong base has a pH level from 12-14.
A very strong base might have a PH of what?
12
Is alkali an acid?
No. Alkali's and acids are an separate ends of the pH scale, the pH of acids being 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 (strong to weak) and the pH of alkali's being 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 (weak to strong). Examples of acids are hydrochloric acid (strong) and vinegar (weak). Toothpaste is an example of a weak alkali.
What is the pH number of a dilute solution of a weak base?
The pH of a weak base can be anything greater than 7.0. Generally, weak bases do have a lower pH that strong bases, but this is not always true. The fact that a base is weak only means that it does not completely ionize in solution. The pH of a weak base depends only upon the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution.
Is strong base on the pH scale is it 3?
Bases run from 7.1 to 14 on the ph scale. A strong base would be in the 12-14 range. A 3ph is a relatively strong acid.
What pH is a weak alkali?
Strong Acid ; pH = 1-3 Weak acid ; pH = 4-6 Neutral ; pH 7 Weak alkali ; pH = 8 -10 ( The answer) Strong Alkali ; pH = 11- 14
Is magnesium an acid or a base?
It is a metal. Exposed to the atmosphere where water and oxygen are present will produce quite an alkaline material close to pH 12, a strong base.
What is pH value of 28 percent ammonia solution?
My best guess is about pH = 12 to 12.5, it is a rather concentrated but weak base.
Is the pH of 13 a weak acid or a strong base?
A very strong base would have a pH of 12, 13, or 14
