What is the difference between the properties of a substance and the properties of an object?
The properties of a substance are inherent in that substance, for example steel, but steel can be used to make all sorts of different objects. Each object has its own properties, but the basic property of steel is the same in all of them (for the same grade of steel)
What is an example of a resilient substance?
Rubber is a resilient substance.
Is a substance with a pH of 8 slightly basic or strongly basic?
Slightly basic. The pH scale goes from 0(ish) to 14(ish) and 7 is neutral. Below 7 is acidic, above 7 is basic. Therefore, a substance with the pH of 8 would be slightly basic.
What is an example of and neutral substance and a basic substance?
neutral substances are natural in nature whereas basic substances are basic .
When a substance can act as an acid or base it is said to be what?
Amphoteric substance For example, NaHCO3 Acidic part = H+ Basic part = CO32-
At what pH is a substance an acid or a base?
The pH is measure from 1 to 14. so, from 1 to 6.9 the substance is acidic. and from 7.01 to 14 the substance is basic. 7 is neutral. The closer the substance is to 7 it is either basic or acidic. As the number is lower the substance is more acidic for example: pH 2.9 is more acidic than pH 4.8
What substance neutralizes an acid?
An alkali, for example, bicarbonate of soda.
Is it necessary for every compound to be acidic or basic or neutral?
To measure the pH of a substance it has to be in solution so if the substance is insoluble you cannot measure its pH. A basic substance is not the same as an alkaline substances. A basic substance is one which can neutralise an acid. An alkaline substance is a solution of a base. For example, chalk (calcium carbonate) is basic as it neutralises acids but as it is insoluble, it is not an alkali. However solid sodium hydroxide can be described as a base as it can neutralise an acid and as it is soluble in water, a solution of sodium hydroxide is both a base and an alkali.
If the ph of a substance is 11 then that substance is?
If a substance has a PH of 11 then the substance is basic.
What is a substance that has a pH of more than 7.0.?
an example is baking soda, milk of magnesia, blood.
What to do if yiu get corrosive substance on your work surface?
Corrosive substance can be removed with contrasting pH substances. Because corrosive substances are acidic or low on the pH scale, the solution to remove them needs to be high in the pH scale, or basic. Ammonia is an example of a basic solution.
What has a pH of 8-14?
Basic substances
What is the basic unit of substance?
Atom
An unknown substance is added to a solution and the pH increases The substance is best described as what?
The unknown substance would have to be a basic solution. At least more basic than the initial solution. The pH scale ranges from 0,Most acidic, to 14, Most Basic. If the pH of your solution increases when the unknown substance is added, then it would lead you to believe that the added substance is of a basic nature.
Is ammonia NH pure substance or mixture?
It is a pure substance. It is a basic gas
