pH does not react with other substances; it is a measure of how acidic or basic a solution is. Acids and bases can react with each other to form salts and water. pH simply indicates the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution.
Yes, buffers can react with both acids and bases to help maintain a relatively stable pH. When an acid is added, the buffer will react by absorbing the excess H+ ions; when a base is added, the buffer will react by absorbing the excess OH- ions. This helps minimize changes in pH.
They both react, but and acid will create a low pH (1,2,3), and the color will turn red or orange. A base will have a high pH (11,12,13) and the color will be blue or green. edit: yes they do react. if it is an acid it has a pH of 1-6, 7 is neutral and a pH of 8-13 is a base. Presence of acids and bases can lead to protonation / deprotonation of the indicator molecule, which changes its colour
No, sodium bicarbonate will not react with phenol red. Phenol red is a pH indicator that changes color based on pH levels, while sodium bicarbonate is a salt commonly used as an antacid.
The pH of iron itself is not a meaningful quantity to discuss, as pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. However, iron can react with water to form iron hydroxides and oxides, which can affect the pH of the surrounding solution.
I don't know the exact answer but take it like this... Carboxilic acids are around 500 times stronger than phenol and have a pH of ~ 3-4, and they will react with any base. Phenol is 1000 times stronger than alcohols and has a pH around 5.5 and will not react with carbonates but will with group 1 metals and group 1 metal hydroxides. On that bases I would assume alcohols would have a pH around 6.4, I do know they don't react with hydroxides or carbonates but will react with group 1 metals. However it does depend on the alcohol most alcohols will not even react with lithium (ethanol is the only one), as the alcohols get longer the less reactive they become, very long chain alcohols may only react with caesium or not at all.
When an acid and an alkali react, they neutralize each other, resulting in a solution with a pH close to 7, which is considered neutral. The pH will depend on the specific amounts and strengths of the acid and alkali used in the reaction.
Components of pH paper react with acids or bases.
Yes, buffers can react with both acids and bases to help maintain a relatively stable pH. When an acid is added, the buffer will react by absorbing the excess H+ ions; when a base is added, the buffer will react by absorbing the excess OH- ions. This helps minimize changes in pH.
Tums react with acids from the stomach.
A solution with a pH of 5 would react with a base to form a salt. The base would neutralize the acidic solution, resulting in the formation of a salt and water.

The substances contained in the pH paper react with the substance to be tested; and this is a chemical reaction.
Yes, helium gas is pH neutral because it does not react with water to produce acidic or basic solutions. Helium is an inert gas and does not significantly alter the pH of its surroundings.
No, sodium bicarbonate will not react with phenol red. Phenol red is a pH indicator that changes color based on pH levels, while sodium bicarbonate is a salt commonly used as an antacid.
most pH indicators are polar, whereas turps is non-polar so it doesnt mix well
