Neither.
On a pH scale, 7 is neutral, with 0 the most acidic and 14 the most basic. The historical pH of sea water is about 8.16, leaning on the basic side of the scale. While it doesn't seem like this is a problem, the pH of our oceans has fallen to 8.05 since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, a change greater in magnitude than any time in the 650,000 years before the Industrial Revolution. The pH scale is also logarithmic, so that slight change in pH results in a 30 percent increase in acidity.
Tap water is ever so slightly basic. Hello, I have had two chemistry classes and in each class we tested the pH of tap water and it is slightly acidic, which my prof. said was true. I tested my tap water with pH paper, it was approximately 6.75 which is slightly acidic. Remember that tap water is not natural, it is a product of a water treatment plant.
it is Neutral but it depends it can be a bit acidic x
Ideally it should be neutral ot sightly basic: The proper pH for a pool is in the range of 7.2 to 7.6. Perfectly neutral water would be 7.0.
Lake water can be acidic, basic, or neutral. The majority of lake water falls in the pH range of 6 to 9, with most lake water being slightly basic.
Ideally it should be neutral or sightly basic: The proper pH for a pool is in the range of 7.2 to 7.6.
Perfectly neutral water would be 7.0.
Seawaters natural pH lies between 8 and 8.3 usually. That would make it basic.
it is acidic..
Pure water is nutral.
Sea water is basic.
acidic
In water solutions salts may be acidic, basic or amphoteric.
its acidic
Pure water is the standard for a neutral fluid (neither acidic or basic.) Ammonia is a basic solution.
The water solution is neutral.
Acidic
acidic
Tap water is only slightly acidic
basic. 0-7 is acidic and 7-14 is basic
Acidic property
acidic oxides form acids with water Bases form basic salts with water
Acidic
Rain water is generally acidic
It is practically slowly acidic
It is acidic. It will react with water to form periodic acid.
No. Electrodes do not dissolve in water and so are neither acidic nor basic.
Its Acidic... HydroBromic Acid is acidic, even if you dilute it with water.
