Strong acids are strongly acidic. Strong alkalies are strongly alkaline. And both strong acids and strong alkalies are equally corrosive, though I would say that strong acids and more dangerous to handle than strong alkali.

What is the pH scale of the strongest Alkali?

The strength of an acid and alkali is shown using the pH scale which goes from 0 to 14 . pH number of acid is less than 7. and pH number of alkali is greater than 7. that's why the smaller the number the stronger the acid and the larger the number the stronger the alkali. so pH of weak acid is 6 and pH of strong alkali is 14 because if the smaller number shows the stronger acid, the larger number shows the weaker acid. And as larger number shows strong alkali, the pH scale is from 0 to 14; so 14 shows stronger alkali.


What is the difference between and acid and an alkali?

an alkali is much stronger than an acid because an acid has a PH of 1 and an alkali has a PH of 14.


What is the stronger acid hydrochloric or sodium hydroxide?

Hydrochloric Acid would be the stronger acid, as Sodium Hydroxide is an alkali.


What is stronger sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid?

Hydrochloric Acid would be the stronger acid, as Sodium Hydroxide is an alkali.


What indicators can be used in titration?

Acid Alkali Indicator Details Strong Strong Methyl Orange pipette alkali, and burette acid (change from yellow to light pink when neutralised) Weak Strong Phenolphthalien pipette acid, and burette alkali (change from colouless to salmon pink when neutralised) Strong Weak Methyl Orange pipette alkali, and burette acid (change from yellow to light pink when neutralised) Acid Alkali Indicator Details Strong Strong Methyl Orange pipette alkali, and burette acid (change from yellow to light pink when neutralised) Weak Strong Phenolphthalien pipette acid, and burette alkali (change from colouless to salmon pink when neutralised) Strong Weak Methyl Orange pipette alkali, and burette acid (change from yellow to light pink when neutralised)

What is the reaction when you add acids and alkali's?

you create a neutral solution -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well it depends actually it doesn't always create a neutral solution. Here's the order: Strong Alkali + Strong Acid = Neutralisation (water + salt) Strong Alkali + Weak Acid = Weak Alkali Weak Alkali + Weak Acid = Neutralisation ( water + salt) Weak Alkali + Strong Acid = Weak Acid Strong Alkali + Strong Acid = Neutralisation (water + salt) Hope it helps! :)

Which is a strong acid-pH 1 or pH 6?

The Lower The pH Scale The stronger the acid ph7 is neutral and the higher the scale past 7 the stronger the alkali is


Is kitchen cleaner a weak alkali?

Is sulfur dioxide an acid neutral or alkali?

It is a quite strong acid


What is stronger acid or alkali?

It depends on the concentration of Hydroxide ions in the alkali. The more the hydroxide ions that can be ionized during ionization, the stronger the alkali. A strong acid releases a lot H+ ions in a solution A weak acid doesn't release as many H+ ions A weak base doesn't accept that many H+ A strong base accepts a lot of H+ ions Those are the basic differences between a strong acid or base and a weak acid or base! :)) ('.')
