The solution is basic.
That this solution is, or contains, a strong base. A base that disassociates almost 100% in said solution.
The lower the pH of a solution, the more acidic it is.
Numbers from 0 to 6 are acidic, 7 is neutral, and 8-14 is basic.
A higher value for pH means the solution is more basic (alkaline.)
This is a basic solution.
You seem to be confused. acidic and basic are not things, they are properties. For example, vinegar is a solution, and it is acidic, because in solution, it dissolves to release hydrogen ions. Basic solutions, such as bleach, either accept hydronium ions in solution, or release hydroxide ions in solution. But all solutions, with the exception of distilled water, is either definatively acidic or basic. Look up a pH meter or a pH scale. The lower the number, the more acidic a solution is. The higher the number is, the more basic a solution is, and if it is 7.0, then it is neutral.
The pH scale measures how acidic or alkaline (basic) a solution is.
To first answer this question you must know how the PH scale works. Essentially the PH scale is a logarithmic scale. A logarithmic scale unlike a linear scale (you know the scales that go from 1, 2, 3, etc.) works using exponential increments. For the PH scale every time you go one number down the solution the item in question becomes ten times more acidic than the number above. Therefore to ultimately answer your question a solution with a PH of 1 is ten times more acidic than a solution that has a PH of 2.
A solution with a pH of 3 will be acidic. Substances with pH's below 7 are termed acidic, those with pH's higher than 7 are termed basic or alkaline.
The solution is an acid.
When referring to acidity of a solution one uses the pH scale. The lower the number, the higher the acidity. Pure water is said to be neutral, and is a 7 on the scale. Anything with a lower number ranking is acidic, and anything with a higher ranking is basic.

The solution is an acid.
pH runs on a scale from 0 to 14. The higher the number, the more basic or alkaline a solution is. The lower the number, the more acidic it is. The pH number is a logarithmic scale that relates to the number of free hydrogen or hydroxide ions in solution.
A ph scale
Anything below 7 is acidic, the lesser the stronger.
Less than 7. The lower the pH, the more acidic a solution is.
pH Scale:
Calcite does not have a pH. The pH scale determines how acidic or basic an aqueous solution is meaning solution in which the solvent is water.
