neutrial
An acidic solution has a pH below 7.
Adding water dilutes the solution and will raise the pH of an acidic solution (which is to say, the solution becomes less acidic).
When each of the following is added to water, is the resulting solution acidic, basic, or neutral? a) HClO, b) NaCl, c) HCN, d) MgO, e) CH3OH
An acidic solution contains H+ ions, a basic solution contains OH- ions.
So42- + 4H+ + 2e- goes to SO2(g) + 2H20(I)
So42- + 4H+ + 2e- goes to SO2(g) + 2H20(I)
H2O and H+ are used to balance the oxygen atoms
An acidic solution has the pH under 7.

An acidic solution has a pH below 7.
These are some possible ionic equation for CuSO4 plus H2O: Cu2+ + 6 H2O --> Cu(H2O)6 Cu(H2O)62+ + H2O <--> Cu(OH)(H2O)5+ + H3O+ This makes a solution of copper sulfate weakly acidic.
A very acidic solution will have a very low pH.
Adding water dilutes the solution and will raise the pH of an acidic solution (which is to say, the solution becomes less acidic).
The solution is acidic.
When each of the following is added to water, is the resulting solution acidic, basic, or neutral? a) HClO, b) NaCl, c) HCN, d) MgO, e) CH3OH
One possibility is a 10% solution of hydrochloric acid.
