What determines the strength of acids and bases?
The strength of acids and bases is most often indicated by the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution. This is called the pH.
What are the safety measures in handling acids and bases in pH?
imposible to handling bases and acids
What is the study of salt bases and acids called?
The study of salt acid and bases is called a pH study. This test calculates and measures pH values of a series.
What is the pH scale in terms of acids and bases?
it is a scale that measures liquid
What characteristics do acids and bases have in common?
Acids and bases both are conductors of electricity. Both also react with litmus paper and the strength of both acids and bases is dependent on the concentration of the ions they release.

What does the behavior of acids and base depend on?
The behavior of acids and bases depends on their strength or concentration.
Strength of acids and bases are determined by extending the acid or base?
by extending the acids and bases one can determine that they will reast with each other.
What is the pH scale in terms of acids and bases?

Is alkali strong or weak?
Alkalis, bases, vary in strength as do acids
How do scientists measure the strength of acids and bases?
they use the pH scale
What do acids and bases do with each other?
The reaction between acids and bases is called neutralization.
What characteristics do acids and bases have in common?

Do acids dissolve in bases or do bases dissolve in acids?
They don't dissolve (or more properly, dissociate) completely in water, only partially. Acids or bases that dissociate completely are called strong acids or bases.
Why is the term powers of hydrogen used when discussing the strength of acids and bases?
pH
