On ly mixing strong acids with strong bases or weak acids with weak bases will be giving water or some other substances with the same concentration of ions
The concentration of ions in 10 is not twice as high as in 5

∙ 12y agoYou get a salt (not necessarily what we think of as "salt," which is NaCl) and water. If you started out with too much acid, there will still be some acid; if you started out with too much base, there will still be some base. If the proportions are just right, you'll get just salt and water.

Can Neutralize a base physical or chemical?
Add a strong base to strong acid and you will neutralize it. Similarly, add a strong acid to a strong base and it will be neutralized. For example:- HCl + NaOH ----> NaCl + H2O You add a strong base to a strong acid and get a neutral salt and water.
Happens when an acid is added to a base?
If you add the same quantity of an acid and a base it will become neutral.i.e forms salt and water
What would you do to some strong acid spilt onto the laboratory bench if you want to make it safe?
Add a strong base to neutralize the strong acid
How so acid base buffer systems minimize pH changes?
Buffers contain both one weak acid and its coupled weak base, that can not react with each other (they are a so-called conjugated system). When you add strong acid it will react with the base part of this buffer, when strong base (hydroxide) is added it will react with the acid.
What is an acid reaction?
If you have an acid of unknown strength, you add Universal Indicator & add drops of a base. Count the drops of the base until the solution turns green (neutral) This should tell you how strong the acid is. This can also be done the other way (with a base of unknown strength & adding an acid) Does that make sense?

What happens if you add a base an acid?
If you add the same quantity of an acid and a base it will become neutral.i.e forms salt and water
What happens when you add acid to base mix?
It will neutralize the mix.

What happens when there is a buffered mixture and you add an acid or a base to it?
The pH remain unchanged.

A swimming pool worker wants the pools pH to be 7.2 she comes by to test the water and finds the pH is 9.2 what should she do to correct this situation?
If the pH is higher than she wants it to be, she gotta add acid. If it too low, add base. :p Apex
Why does a solution of a conjugate acid base pair behave as a buffered solution?
The resist pH change in the following way: If you add a strong acid to the buffer solution, the conjugate base gets protonated, but the pH is not significantly changed. If you add a strong base to the buffer, the conjugate acid gets deprotonated, and again the pH is not changed very much. If you only had one component (let's say just the conjugate base), then it would not be able to resist change in pH if you added a strong base to the solution (although it would still counteract the affect of added acid).
What happens when you add a acid into a base?
They neutralise each other, assuming you neutralise a volume of acid with a base of the same molarity they completely cancel each other out leaving water and a salt. The salt differs depending on the acid and base used.
How do you neutralize an acid or a base?
If it is an acid then add a base until the pH level becomes 7, which is neutral. If it is a base, add acid until the pH is seven.
