What is the reaction of phenolpthalein on acid and base?
make it useful for testing for signs of carbonation reactions in concrete
What is mean by conjugate?

How can you know if something is a acid or base if you only have the molecular formula?
base Give OH ions and acid gives H ions
Ph-indicator?
States whether something is an acid or base.
Can Neutralize a base physical or chemical?
Add a strong base to strong acid and you will neutralize it. Similarly, add a strong acid to a strong base and it will be neutralized. For example:- HCl + NaOH ----> NaCl + H2O You add a strong base to a strong acid and get a neutral salt and water.
