The pure water is neither base nor acid. This is because in pure water, ther is a small dissociation of water molecules giving the same amount of H+ and OH- ions. Therefore, ther is no excess of acid nor base ions. Reaction: H20 -> H+ + OH- The concentration of [H+]=[OH-]=10^-7 mol/dm3 You can read more here: http://ibchem.com/IB/ibnotes/full/aab_htm/18.3.htm
