An acid would be on the left side of a pH scale
pH = 7 neutral pH = 5 acidic
The Ph scale does not have colours.
Whether something is acid or base the strength of that solution is measured by the pH scale. 0 (zero) is the most acid and 14 is the most base. distilled water measures 7 and is completely neutral. Ammonia is an example of a base and is usually measured at a pH of 11.6. So the answer to your question is that an acid has a positive pH. There is no such thing as a negative pH.
The pH scale ranges from 0-14. From 0-6, the substance is acidic. A value of 7 means the substance is neutral. From 8-14, the substance is basic.
yes. pH scales use the numbers 1-14 a pH scale of 1 being strongly acidic and a pH scale of 14 being strongly basic. a pH scale of 7 is neutral. so the pH levels of 1-6 are the acids and 8-14 are the basics.
The pH scale.
pH Scale
Citric Acid is a weak acid. It is round about 6 on the pH scale.
a strong acid is lower on the pH scale a strong base is higher on the pH scale
pH = 7.00 at 25oC
the pH of this acid is 5
it can its about ph 1,2 or 3
