When measured on the pH scale an acid is equals 7 or 5 or 7 or7 which is the correct one?

pH = 7 neutral pH = 5 acidic


When measured on the pH scale acid is?

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.


What colour is acid on a PH scale?

The Ph scale does not have colours.


In what units is the pH measured?

The pH is measured in units on a scale from 0 to 14.


Is acid solution negative or positive?

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.


How are the strengths of acids and bases measured?

The strength of an acid or base is typically measured using the pH scale. Acids have a pH below 7, with lower pH values indicating stronger acids. Bases have a pH above 7, with higher pH values indicating stronger bases.


Can buffer concentration be measured on pH scale?

Buffer concentration cannot be directly measured on the pH scale. Buffer concentration is typically quantified by the molarity of the weak acid and its conjugate base in a solution. The pH scale measures the acidity or basicity of a solution based on the concentration of H+ ions. Buffers help resist changes in pH by absorbing or releasing H+ ions.


On the pH scale what is the pH of an acid?

0 - 6.9 The lower the pH number the higher the concentration of hydronium ions and higher the strength of acid


The scale used to classify the strength of acid and basic solutions?

The pH scale.


What are the units used to measure acids and bases?

The concentration of an acid or base in solution is measured in moles per litre. The strength of an acid or base in solution is measured on the pH scale. This is the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration. It's a pure number, there are no units.


What does the pH scale have to be to neutralise an acid?

pH = 7.00 at 25oC


What scale is pH?

PH scale is a scale that shows the substance is PH ....... Example: The substance is PH 7, so it is neutral The substance is PH 3, so it is acid The substance is PH 10, so it is alkali
