Some natural substances, like citrus fruits or vinegar, contain weak acids such as citric acid or acetic acid. These weak acids release few hydrogen ions in water, resulting in a slightly acidic pH. They react with bases to form salts and water.
No, not all substances that are Arrhenius acids or bases are also Bronsted-Lowry acids or bases. Arrhenius acids and bases are defined based on their ability to increase the concentration of hydrogen ions or hydroxide ions in solution, while Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases are defined based on their ability to donate or accept a proton. Some substances can be Arrhenius acids or bases without being Bronsted-Lowry acids or bases, and vice versa.
No, not all substances are either acidic or basic. Some substances are neutral, meaning they have a pH of 7. Acidic substances have a pH below 7, basic substances have a pH above 7, and neutral substances have a pH of 7.
No, acids are not flammable. In fact, most acids are poor conductors of electricity and do not burn. However, some acids can react with other substances in a way that generates flammable gases or materials.
Oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients (such as glucose and amino acids), hormones, waste products, and antibodies are some of the substances carried by the blood.
Acid substances are materials that release hydrogen ions and that have a pH of less than 7. Acids may be highly corrosive, such as sulfuric acid (H2SO4) or not, such as vinegar. Some examples of acids are hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, gastric acid, carbonic acid, vinegar, lemon juice, and household soap.

Some substances can be Arrhenius acids or bases without being Bronsted-Lowry acids or bases, and vice versa.
The natural substances are carbo-hydrogens, that come from the process of compression and pressure (and possibly heat) of the decomposing vegtable materials.
No, not all substances are either acidic or basic. Some substances are neutral, meaning they have a pH of 7. Acidic substances have a pH below 7, basic substances have a pH above 7, and neutral substances have a pH of 7.
No, acids are not flammable. In fact, most acids are poor conductors of electricity and do not burn. However, some acids can react with other substances in a way that generates flammable gases or materials.
Some fruit have acids in them. For example lemons limes strawberries cranberries.Vinegar, wine, leafy green vegetables, rhubarb and beets have acids in them.

All acids have H in them. Some examples of acids are: Carbonic acid Hydrochloric acid Sulphuric acid
Acid is not any single substance but a "family of substances. There are many different acids. Some are solids, some are liquids, some are gasses.
The mineral acids HCl, HNO3, and H2SO4 are prepared in industries, while most of the organic acids are isolated from plant material and animal fat but some organic acids are also prepared on industrial scale.
Some disadvantages of acids include their corrosive nature, which can damage skin and materials upon contact, their strong odor, and their potential to react violently with other substances if not handled properly. Additionally, acids can be harmful to the environment if not disposed of responsibly.
Acids break down substances faster based on their chemical reactivity with the particular substance. Acids donate protons to substances, leading to chemical reactions that may break down the substance's molecular structure. The strength and concentration of the acid, as well as the composition of the substance being acted upon, influence the rate of breakdown.
