What color is litmus acid in a base?
Litmus paper turns blue in a base. Litmus is a pH indicator that changes color depending on the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
How do we measure the amount of acid or base present in materials?
Measuring pH the acidity or alkalinity of a solution are evaluated.
Why doesn't reaction between equal amounts of an acid and a base always produce a neutral solution?
The amount of base needed to neutralize an acid depends on the alkalinity of the acid and of the base. ------------------ Because some salts formed during the neutralization form non-neutral water solutions.
Which of the following best describes a neutralization reaction?
Acid + base = salt + water
The strength of an acid is related to its?
The strength of an acid is related to its ability to donate protons (H+ ions) in a solution. Strong acids completely dissociate in water to release a high concentration of H+ ions, while weak acids only partially dissociate.
What are compounds that help keep a solutions acidity or alkalinity constant?
Buffer solutions contain a weak acid and its conjugate base (or a weak base and its conjugate acid) that help maintain a solution's pH by resisting changes in acidity or alkalinity when small amounts of acids or bases are added. Examples of buffer compounds include acetic acid/sodium acetate and ammonium chloride/ammonia.
How is the strength of acids and alkalinity related to the pH scale based on the completeness of ionization?
The stronger the acid or base, the more completely it ionizes.
Can baking soda raise the cyanuric acid level in a pool?
No, sodium bicarb is used to increase alkalinity. Cyanuric acid is used as a stabalizer. One is base the other acidic.
You want to change the alkalinity of your hot tub water will muriatic acid be your best choice?
Muriatic acid is what is used to reduce alkalinity in water.
What is alkalinity value?
The word alkalinity is defined by the ability that any substance has at neutralizing when it is mixed with an acid.
What is the strength of an acid called?
It is called alkalinity
Which two terms refer to the amount of acid or base dissolved in solution?
pH and concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) are terms that refer to the amount of acid or base dissolved in a solution. pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, while the concentration of hydrogen ions indicates the strength of an acid or base in a solution.
