it does nothing
Distilled water is not a base.
A base doesn't react with water; the base may be soluble in water.
A base that dissolves in water is called a soluble base or aqueous base.
The conjugate base for the hydronium ion (H3O+) is indeed water
An acid and a base react to form water and a salt
water is responsible for ionization of acid and base, without water the terms acid and base are meaningless.
Hydroxide ions (OH-) by deprotonating water: [base]- + H2O --> H[base] + OH-
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
Water is neutral, with a pH of 7. It is not an acid or a base.
A base or alkali affects the pH water by increasing it.
Base should be added slowly into water, while stirring continuously. This helps prevent splashing or sudden release of heat, which could be hazardous. Never add water into base as it can cause a violent reaction.
Water is neither an acid nor a base; it can act as both. Water can act as a base by accepting a proton to form a hydronium ion.
