Adding base will increase pH-level
When adding a strong acid to an acidic solution pH decreases. Adding a strong base to an acidic solution the pH increases.
If phenolphthalein is added to a solution of salts, it will not undergo any specific reaction. Phenolphthalein is used as an indicator in acid-base titrations, where it changes color depending on the pH of the solution. Since salts do not have acidic or basic properties, phenolphthalein will not exhibit any color change.
when a base is mixed with an acidic solution why does neutralization occurs?
Your question is inadequate. If you mean to differentiate the two, you can do a pH test. If pH is below 7, it is acidic and if it is above 7, it is basic.If you mean to mix an acid and a base, following reaction will occur-Acid + Base ---> Salt + Water.
Acetic acid is added to the solution, but the pH of the solution does not change. Sodium hydroxide, a base, is added to the solution, but the pH of the solution does not change.
When adding a strong acid to an acidic solution pH decreases. Adding a strong base to an acidic solution the pH increases.
The acid and base will neutralize each other and the resulting solution will be more neutral. If the base being neutralized is strong, the resulting salt will be neutral. If the base is weak the resulting salt will be acidic. A solution of such a salt may be called a buffer.
Base turn red cabbage solution to blue-ish purple
It depends on the pH of the dilutant. if the dilution substance is base the acidic solution will become less acidic moving toward neutral pH, the more it is diluted the less acidic it will become. A base solution will remain base or about 7 pH
Vinegar is an acidic solution.
A solution may be acidic basic or neutral.
The measurement for how acidic or base a solution is called pH level. The pH level is on a scale from 1-14. One being very acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 being very base.
If phenolphthalein is added to a solution of salts, it will not undergo any specific reaction. Phenolphthalein is used as an indicator in acid-base titrations, where it changes color depending on the pH of the solution. Since salts do not have acidic or basic properties, phenolphthalein will not exhibit any color change.
The solution is basic.
A very acidic solution will have a very low pH.
Hydroxylammonium chloride is acidic in water solution.
The solution of nickel chloride is acidic.
