Why acids and alkalines are equal?
Acids and bases are not equal; they are opposites on the pH scale. Acids have a pH below 7, while alkalines (bases) have a pH above 7. Acids donate hydrogen ions, while bases accept them.
What range on the pH is acids and bases?
0 - 6 Acids7 Neutral8 - 14 Bases
How is acids and bases alike and different?
Acids and bases are alike in the sense that they are both types of compounds that can dissociate in water to produce ions. They are different in terms of their properties: acids donate protons (H+ ions) in water, while bases accept protons. Acids typically have a sour taste, while bases have a bitter taste.
What are the pH values of acids Bases?
Acids have pH values below 7.0. Bases have values above 7.0.
How are acids and bases different and how do their pH values differ?
Acids release hydrogen ions when dissolved in water, lower the pH, and have a pH value less than 7. Bases accept hydrogen ions when dissolved in water, increase the pH, and have a pH value higher than 7. Acids and bases neutralize each other to form water and a salt in a chemical reaction called neutralization.
How can you tell acids from bases?
Acids have a lower PH and bases have a higher PH.

Does acids or bases have a greater pH?
Bases have pH above 7, acids below 7, so the base pH is higher, though the acidity is lower.
How is using pH hydrion paper to test for acids or bases different from litmus paper?
Hydrion paper is specific for bases!
Why do you think bases are often described as the opposites of acids'?
1) Bronsted-Lowry acids are proton donors. Bronsted-Lowry bases are proton acceptors. 2) Lewis acids are electron acceptors. Lewis bases are electron donors.

What does PH scale describes?
The PH scale is the measurement of acids and bases. 8 and up are bases. 6 and lower are acids. 7 is neutral.
How do acids and basses differ in a water solution?
Acids release H+ ions in water, which can lower the pH of the solution. Bases release OH- ions in water, which can increase the pH of the solution. Acids have a pH below 7, while bases have a pH above 7.
What is the lowest pH to the highest pH?
Lowest pH, strong acids, then weak acids, then salts of strong acids and strong bases, then salts of weak acids and strong bases, then weak bases, then strong bases. All very confusing!
