It is alkaline - it is ingested in solution to fight stomach acidity.
Sodium Bicarbonate is considered as acidic due to H+ ion. The formula is HCo3. Please remember when HCo3 dissolves the H+ ionizes and imparts acidity to alkaline solution.
No. The bicarbonate ion is generally basic (alkaline)
A solution of potassium bicarbonate can be used as fungicide.
An acidic solution has a pH below 7.

a bicarbonate takes the form of a solution and a solute
An acidic solution has the pH under 7.
Acidic ones. Bicarbonate is alkaline or a base. Bases help to neutralise acids.
An acidic solution has a pH below 7.
It's both a weak base and an (even weaker) acid.base (proton acceptor) HCO3− + H2O H2CO3 + OH− with pKb = 6.3acid (proton donor) HCO3− + H2O CO32− + H3O+ with pKa = 10.3It is used to neutralize acids in the stomach as an antacid.
A very acidic solution will have a very low pH.
Adding water dilutes the solution and will raise the pH of an acidic solution (which is to say, the solution becomes less acidic).
