What do acidic substances contain?
All acidic substances contain hydrogen. Not only this, but acidic substances must be able to "donate" a hydrogen ion (proton) to an aqueous solution. In case you needed to know, bases are the same, except instead of hydrogen, they have hydroxide (OH).
Why is a acid called a acid?
They are acidic due to hydrogen ions. The more hydrogen ions converted from the original solution there are the more acidic it will be. For example Hydrochloric Acid converts more hydrogen ions from (hydrogen + water + chloride) solution than citric acid does from its respective solution...
Is hydrogen acidic in water?
No. Hydrogen gas is neither acidic nor basic. It is the hydrogen ion that contributes to acidity.
In butane which hydrogen is more acidic hydrogen of ch3 or hydrogen of ch2 and why?
In butane NONE of the 10 hydrogen atoms are acidic hydrogens (at least not in water) so you can NOT specify which ones are more (or less) acidic.
What substances are not acidic?
Blood
Is hydrogen acidic?
No. Hydrogen, H2, is neutral. H+ ions are acidic.

What does hydrogen bromide and hydrochloric acid make?
A really acidic mixture (HBr and HCl are both highly acidic substances). They don't really make anything in a mixture though.

Is Sweat Acidic?
acidic substances contain acid sweet
What substances are not acidic?

What is the difference between acidic and basic solution working with redox reaction?
An acidic solution contains H+ ions, a basic solution contains OH- ions.
What are the substances that contain hydrogen but are not acids?
Many organic molecules contain hydrogen atoms and are not considered acids. Specifically, when carbon is bonded to hydrogen, this is considered an organic bond. There are organic acids as well though. In order for a substance to be acidic, it needs to have ionic hydrogen present (i.e. H+).
List some of the most acidic liquids or substances found in everyday life.?
Battery Acid is one of the most acidic substances there are.
