Does toothpaste contain acids or alkalis?
Most toothpastes contain alkalis , however some can contain acids.
Is there any acid or alkalis on the periodic table?
The periodic table itself does not contain any acids or alkalis. Acids and alkalis are chemical compounds that can be formed from elements on the periodic table by combining them in specific ways. Some examples of acids include hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4), while sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium hydroxide (KOH) are examples of alkalis.
Can you name some acids and alkalis?
== Acids== 1) Lemon(citric acid) 2) Vinegar 3)Bleech 4) Soft drinks 5) Milk ==
Facts about alkalis?
1. An alkali must contain a metal ion 2. Alkali sometimes can neutralize acid, if it is applied with enough force 3. All alkalis are inedible 4. For an alkali to be found in nature, it must not contain radioactivity 5. Uses of alkalis include tanning leather, cleaning, and scrubbing
Are acids or alkalis more dangerous?
It depends on the specific acid or alkali, as some can be more dangerous than others. In general, strong acids can be more corrosive and damaging to the skin and tissue upon contact, while strong alkalis can also be harmful. Both can cause burns and other injuries if not handled properly.
Are all acids and alkalis dangerous?
Everything depends on concentration and quantity !!By example:Acetic acid at 5% concentration is food grade vinegar, concentrated at 100% is called 'glacial' acid: a drop of it will burn through your skin, like concentrated sulfuric acid will do.Some (weak) organic acids are very toxic in small amounts (< 0.001 mg)
Is a metal an acid or alkali?
Metals are not acids or alkalis. Metals are elements that tend to lose electrons in chemical reactions, forming positive ions. Acids and alkalis are types of substances that can donate or accept protons in solution, respectively.
How are plants affected by different amounts of uv radiation?
Plants are affected by UV rays. Some of them die in their presence.
What plant dye can be used to detect acids and alkalis?
The most common is Litmus. Litmus is extracted from various Lichens and is a good indicator of both acids and alkalis. Some naturally occurring substances indicate only acids or alkalis such as cochineal and curcumin. The common litmus paper is impregnated with the dye extract of the Lichen to act as an acidity or alkalinity indicator. All PH (acidity and alkilinity) measuring devices work based upon whether they accept or donate protons and as such are infact themselves acids or bases. For greater accuracy other dyes (other than the reactive element) are added to the PH detector which can be chemically engineered to give visible changes in colour at every step on the PH scale.
What is difference between alkaloids and alkali?
Alkaloids are naturally occurring organic compounds containing nitrogen and typically have pharmacological effects, while alkali refers to a basic substance that can neutralize acids and has a pH greater than 7. Alkaloids are found in plants and some animals and have various physiological effects, while alkalis are a class of compounds that can accept protons or donate electrons in a chemical reaction.

Uses of acid and alkali in everyday life?
chemicals used in your household to wash things.. example.. ammonia.. toilet cleaner. toothpaste. Coffee has acid in it. sodas. orange juice. batteries if you use them. alot of common household things are acid based (:
