its an alkali, the other side of the pH scale you numpty;)
Neither - soap is a base, with a basic - not acidic - pH level.

When weak acids react with strong acids, the strong acid will donate a proton to the weak acid, resulting in the weak acid being protonated. This protonation increases the concentration of the weak acid cation. The conjugate base of the weak acid is formed as a result.
When a weak acid and a strong base combine, the resulting solution will be basic because the strong base will completely neutralize the weak acid. The pH of the solution will be higher than 7.
The solution at the endpoint of an acid-base titration involving a weak acid and a strong base will be alkaline. This is because the weak acid will have been neutralized by the strong base, resulting in excess hydroxide ions in the solution causing it to be alkaline.
pH of the strong acid solution will be lower than the pH of the weak acid solution due to the stronger dissociation of the strong acid.
When a weak base is titrated with a strong acid, the pH of the solution decreases. This is because the strong acid neutralizes the weak base, leading to an increase in the concentration of H ions in the solution, which lowers the pH.
A soap contains a strong alkali,because it produces OH- ions in the water.
B. a strong acid. Strong acids completely dissociate into ions in solution, making them the strongest electrolytes.
Yes In theory, you could have a very weak solution of a strong acid and a stong solution of a weak acid and they would have the same pH.
you create a neutral solution -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well it depends actually it doesn't always create a neutral solution. Here's the order: Strong Alkali + Strong Acid = Neutralisation (water + salt) Strong Alkali + Weak Acid = Weak Alkali Weak Alkali + Weak Acid = Neutralisation ( water + salt) Weak Alkali + Strong Acid = Weak Acid Strong Alkali + Strong Acid = Neutralisation (water + salt) Hope it helps! :)
A solution of a strong acid will have a lower pH than a solution of a weak acid of equal concentration and volume because strong acids fully dissociate in water, releasing more hydrogen ions (H⁺). In contrast, weak acids only partially dissociate, resulting in fewer H⁺ ions in solution. Therefore, the strong acid generates a higher concentration of hydrogen ions, leading to a lower pH.
