Water itself is neutral, neither acidic or basic. If an acid is present in the water, such as hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, etc., then the water will become acidic.
P4O10 is acidic.
No, adding lemon to water does not make it alkaline. Lemon is acidic in nature, so it actually makes the water more acidic.
The ion-exchange resins that are used to remove certain ions from the water to make it deionized sometimes leave a higher concentration of protons in the water, which makes it slighty acidic.
Ammonium nitrite is slightly acidic in aqueous solutions. When dissolved in water, it can release nitrous acid, which makes the solution slightly acidic.
This will happen lots of times when the water is acidic with a low PH
Acid in acid rain causes a deterioration of stone and wood. It also makes soil too acidic for plants to grow and makes water to acidic for fish to live in.
The solution of FeCl3 is acidic. This is because when FeCl3 dissolves in water, it forms Fe3+ ions and Cl- ions. The Fe3+ ions react with water to produce H+ ions, which makes the solution acidic.
acidic rain if it penetrates into the soil pollutes the underground aquifers.this makes underground water unfit for drinking.
7.0 is a neutral PH level. Lower than this makes the water more acidic and higher makes the water more alkaline.
S02 is produced by mold. It makes the rain water acidic because when it rains the dirt and pollution in the air are collected and when it floods the pollution an the ground is collected in the water.
When a non-metal oxide dissolves in water, it forms an acidic solution. This is because non-metal oxides react with water to produce acidic compounds such as hydrogen ions. This makes the solution acidic and capable of conducting electricity.
One cause of acidic ground water is polluted rain water, which can be acidic.
