They will neutralize each other, and make a substance that is neither acid or base. Water is one of these substances (pH 7.0 pure H2O). Of course, this is assuming there are near equal amounts of both substances, and they have enough hydrogen combined to give a pH of 7, so 1ml of a pH 14.0 substance won't neutralize a 50ml puddle of pH 1.0 acid.

Bases and acids react to form water and a salt in a chemical reaction known as neutralization. Acids donate protons (H+) while bases accept protons. The combination of an acid and a base results in a solution that is neither acidic nor basic, but rather neutral with a pH of 7.

What do acids and bases do with each other?

The reaction between acids and bases is called neutralization.


What are Solutions with large concentrations of acids and bases that do not neutralize each other called?

Such solutions are called concentrated acids or bases. In these solutions, the acids and bases are present in high concentrations, but they do not neutralize each other due to the excess of one over the other.


What four properties that acids and bases have in common?

Both acids and bases are electrolytes, meaning they can conduct electricity in solution. They can react with each other to form water and a salt. Acids and bases can change the color of certain indicators to show their pH levels. Acids and bases can neutralize each other when mixed in the right proportions.


Strength of acids and bases are determined by extending the acid or base?

by extending the acids and bases one can determine that they will reast with each other.


Why it is important to know which substance are available acidic and which are base?

Acids undergo similar reactions. Bases undergo similar reactions. Acids and bases react with each other to neutralize each other.


What things neutralize each other?

Acids and bases neutralize each other. When an acid reacts with a base, they form water and a salt, resulting in a neutral solution.


Why do bases often described as the opposites of acids?

it is because, when they react to each other, they neutralizes each other


When acids and bases are mixed they what each other?

When acids and bases are mixed, they neutralize each other. Acids have a pH less than 7, while bases have a pH greater than 7. The reaction between an acid and a base forms water and a salt.


Do acids combine with bases to form sugars?

NO, Acid and Bases react with each other to form salts and water


Why can't acids and bases be stored together?

Acids and bases can react with each other to produce heat, gas, or even explosions if stored together. This chemical reaction is highly exothermic and can be dangerous. It is recommended to store acids and bases separately to prevent accidental reactions.


When acids and bases are mixed they each other.?

Acids have a pH from 7 to 0 and bases have a pH for 7-14. Water is neutral with a pH of 7. If an equal strength acid and base are mixed together they cancel each out out.


Can acids and bases react with each other so that both are neutralized?

Yes they can, but I don't know how...
