It is more acidic than alkalinic. The more alkalinic a substance, the more basic it is. So the answer to your question is it depends on which angle you are coming from. By the way, a neutral substance is pH 7

The pH scale is a logarithmic scale , with a log base of '10'.
So in changing from '7' to '5 it has becomes Acidic'
Since it has becomes acidic
it is '100 times' more acidic. because.
10^-7 = 0.0000001
And 10^-5 = 0.00001
Dividing.
10^-5 / 10^-7 = 10^--2 = 10^2 = 100 times more acidic.

∙ 12y agoThe pH of the substance has decresed by two, making the substance acidic, when it was neutral before at a pH of 7.

A solution with pH value of 6 or 5 which will be more acidic and why?
The substances with pH 5 is more acidic since it contains more H+ ions. As the pH goes down the substance becomes more acidic and as it goes up the substance becomes more basic.
Which is the most acidic pH 2 pH 5 pH 7 or pH 11?
Most acidic is substance of pH of 2, then of pH of 5 and the substance of pH 7 is neutral and the substance of pH 11 is basic
If a solution has a pH of 3 does it have more or less H ions than a solution with a pH of 5?
A solution of pH 3 will have 100 times more H ions than a solution of pH 5; that means it is more acidic.Note that a solution of pH 2 will have 1000 times more H ions than one of pH 2, and a solution of pH 1 will have 10000 times, etc.
A substance with a pH of 5?
It depends on how concentrated the acid is. Say it's .00001 M HClO4. pH = -log([H+]). In this case, [H+] = .00001 M, and thus -log(.00001) = 5.
What substance has a pH level of 5?
there are a lot of things that have a pH OF 5 some aee pure rain water and black coffee.
Which has the greater concentration of hydrogen ions a substance with a pH of 5 or a substance with a pH of 4?
A pH of 4 is one order of magnitude more acidic that a pH of 5. So. the 4 pH has the greater hydrogen ion concentration.
A solution with pH value of 6 or 5 which will be more acidic and why?
The substances with pH 5 is more acidic since it contains more H+ ions. As the pH goes down the substance becomes more acidic and as it goes up the substance becomes more basic.
Which is the most acidic pH 2 pH 5 pH 7 or pH 11?
Most acidic is substance of pH of 2, then of pH of 5 and the substance of pH 7 is neutral and the substance of pH 11 is basic
Is 5 on the pH scale acidic or alkaline?
If a substance has a pH of 5, it is said to be weakly acidic.
If a solution has a pH of 3 does it have more or less H ions than a solution with a pH of 5?
A solution of pH 3 will have 100 times more H ions than a solution of pH 5; that means it is more acidic.Note that a solution of pH 2 will have 1000 times more H ions than one of pH 2, and a solution of pH 1 will have 10000 times, etc.
What is a substance which is pH 6?
Natural rainwater (pH 5 - 6) Milk (pH 6 - 6.6)
A substance with a pH of 5?
It depends on how concentrated the acid is. Say it's .00001 M HClO4. pH = -log([H+]). In this case, [H+] = .00001 M, and thus -log(.00001) = 5.
What would happen if you mixed a substance with a pH of 5 with a substance that has a pH of 14?
Neutralization occurs, with heat and water being produced as well as a compound. The compound may be soluble and is invisible in the water or insoluble and appears in the bottom of the solution. The pH of the resulting solution would be anywhere between 5 and 14 depending on the amount of both substance added. If the pH of the final solution is less than 7, some of the acid (in this case a pH 5 substance) will be left in the solution and the reverse applies as well. If the pH of the final solution is 7, there would be no more acid or alkali left (since they are totally neutralized)
Treatment of water with chlorine is formed more HOCl at low pH is true or false?
True because it is an acid, which is, on the pH scale, pH 1-6. Once merged with water, it will lower pH to about pH 4-5; and raise substance levels.
What substance has a pH level of 5?
there are a lot of things that have a pH OF 5 some aee pure rain water and black coffee.
How many more H plus ions does a solution with a pH of 4 than a solution with a pH of 5?
It has 10 times as many. pH is roughly the same as "log [H3O+]". This means "10 to what power is equal to the concentration of H3O+ ions?" So, if you go from pH 5 to pH 4, you've got a concentration of ten times fewer H3O+ ions, and ten times more H+ ions.
What is alkalis acid?
Alkali isn't an acid. Alkali and acid are terms used when the pH of a substance is a certain number, for example if a substance has a pH of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, then the substance is an acid. If the pH is 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15, then the substance is an alkali.
