How can you tell if its an acid?

Add an alkali substance to it, such as chalk, if it is an acid it will "fizz" and release carbon dioxide. You could also test with Litmus Paper or Universal indicator.

What do you need to test if something is alkali or acid?

You can use litmus paper or pH test strips to test if something is alkali or acid. Litmus paper turns red in acidic solutions and blue in alkaline solutions, while pH test strips provide a numerical pH value to indicate acidity or alkalinity.


How can you test for an acid and an alkali?

You would have to look at the nurk of the base and the whapple of the acid and i it is an xx and yy it would distinguish because then it dismanages it but otherwise if it is xy yx then it physicaly can't distinguish experimentally without tasting it.

How could you titrate an acid and alkali without the use of an indicator?

If the acid or alkali forms an insoluble salt, you could titrate it that way. For instance, suppose you had a solution of sulfuric acid of unknown concentration. You could add calcium hydroxide until the precipitate stops forming and determine the strength of the acid by the amount of base added. If both the acid and alkali are soluble, a pH meter can be used to measure the change in pH of the solution. Drawing the change of pH against volume titrated will thus give the endpoint of the reaction.
