In order to neutralize any acid, you must add a base. In the pH scale, there are two extremes: acids and bases. acids are on the low end of the scale (0-6.9) and bases are on the high end (8-14) In the middle is neutral, neither acid nor base. If you want to make an acid less acidic, you must add a base to neutralize it a little. On the other hand, if you want to make a base any less basic, you must add an acid.
Examples of acids: Lemons, Vinegar, Apples, Oranges, and Grapes
Examples of bases: Distilled water, Eggs, Sea Water, Borax, Lime Water
Neutral is regular water.
