ACID
Yes, it is. You can tell weather something is an Alkali, Neutral pr acid via the pH scale or, you can tell if something is an alkali from its consistency; if it is sludgy (like washing-up liquid), it is an alkali. So, I am under the influence that washing-up POWDER is too, an alkali.J.S.P. Aged 11
it is not an acid because it doesn't mixed with the soloutions! <3
Alkaline because it is a cleaning product. sasjade
if you mean biological powder, then no, no, no, NO! acid is never used in washing powder, it would damage your clothes. No, they use enzymes, which are biological catalysts. these are more effective than non-bio, but far worse for your clothes.However i see you put Pool care and cleaning in your subjects. you were probably looking for pool cleaner which is a compound of Chlorine and Potassium to make a soluble salt, very clean and very useful

Washing powder doesn't contain acids.
no it is neutral

No. As the term washing powder would suggest, it is a powder, which consists of many small solid particles.
can washing powder kill weeds in your lawn
Because it is not the fastest pH to use for washing powder. So it would take longer for the washing to be finished.
Baking powder is an acid
adding these two compounds serves two purposes. they are: - i) they help the washing powder to remain dry and ii) to maintain the alkalinity of the washing powder
