a pH scale.
Honey is considered to be an acidic substance.
Vinegar is dilute acetic acid, which is an acid.
It doesn't matter if the substance is basic or acidic. What makes a substance destructive is the strength of the substance.
To neutralize an acidic substance, you can add a base to it. The base will react with the acid to form water and a salt, which will help to balance the pH level. It is important to use the appropriate amount of base to completely neutralize the acid.
How acidic it is and how corrosive it is. Sulfur, for example, is 2. Battery acid is 1.
Elemental hydrogen gas, H2, is neutral. Although hydrogen is the main factor in determining if a substance is a base or an acid; Acids have H+ ions and depending on how many there are determines th strength of them. Bases on the other hand base them selves around OH-(hydroxyl) ions and once again the more of these ions present the stronger the substance basicity is.
It depends on how acidic or basic the other substance is, but it is usually neutral
The pH is measure from 1 to 14. so, from 1 to 6.9 the substance is acidic. and from 7.01 to 14 the substance is basic. 7 is neutral. The closer the substance is to 7 it is either basic or acidic. As the number is lower the substance is more acidic for example: pH 2.9 is more acidic than pH 4.8
Vinegar contains acetic acid, so it is an acidic solution.
An acidic substance.
Amphoteric substance For example, NaHCO3 Acidic part = H+ Basic part = CO32-
acid ex:when u it salt and vinegar chips its sour not bitter
