pH = 4 is mildly acidic.

The pH scale is

[H = 1 strongly acidic

pH = 4 mildly acidic

pH = 7 neutral ( Water)

pH = 9 mildly alkaline

pH = 14 strongly alkaline.

What will happen when an acid of low pH is combined with some base of high pH in a test tube?

When an acid of low pH is combined with a base of high pH in a test tube, a neutralization reaction will occur. The acid will donate a proton (H+) to the base, forming water and a salt. The resulting solution will have a pH closer to neutral.


Is water in acid or base?

Water is neutral, with a pH of 7. It is not an acid or a base.


What is the pH at the endpoint of a titration?

The pH at the endpoint of a titration depends on the nature of the acids and bases involved. Usually, for a strong acid-strong base titration, the pH at the endpoint is around 7 due to the neutralization of the acid and base. For weak acid-strong base titrations, the pH may be greater than 7, while for weak base-strong acid titrations, the pH may be less than 7.


What is a substance that resists a pH change when small amounts of acid or base are added?

A buffer solution is a substance that resists changes in pH when small amounts of acid or base are added. Buffers are typically composed of a weak acid and its conjugate base (or a weak base and its conjugate acid) that can neutralize added acid or base without drastic changes in pH.


How do buffers work in chemistry to maintain a stable pH level?

Buffers in chemistry work by resisting changes in pH when an acid or base is added. They contain a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid. When an acid is added, the base in the buffer neutralizes it, and when a base is added, the acid in the buffer neutralizes it. This helps maintain a stable pH level in a solution.

How do you neutralize an acid or a base?

If it is an acid then add a base until the pH level becomes 7, which is neutral. If it is a base, add acid until the pH is seven.

Does acid has a higher pH than base?

No, acid will have pH 1-6.9; 7 is neutral and 7.1-14 is a base.


How does an acid and base differ in meaning?

An acid solution has a pH under 7.A base solution has a pH over 7.


Is water in acid or base?

What is the exact pH of acid?

Well, there really is no "exact" pH of an acid. An acid can be a certain pH, before it is considered a base, and to change an acid to a base would be called titration, but lets not get carried away. The pH of an acid can be anywhere between 0-6 on the pH scale, 7 would be neutral, and 8-14 would be considered a base.
