Hydrogen will increase the acidity of a solution, otherwise know as pH. the lower the pH the higher the acidity. Adding carbon dioxide (breathe through a straw) will reverse the effects and increase the pH, making it more basic.

Potassium permanganate is acidic in nature. When dissolved in water, it releases hydrogen ions which lower the pH of the solution, making it acidic.
Alkaline substances have a pH above 7, acidic substances have a pH below 7, and neutral substances have a pH of 7. The difference lies in the concentration of hydrogen ions: alkaline substances have fewer hydrogen ions, acidic substances have more hydrogen ions, and neutral substances have an equal amount of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions.
No, alkaline solutions are basic, not acidic. Alkaline solutions have a pH greater than 7, indicating a higher concentration of hydroxide ions, while acidic solutions have a pH less than 7 due to a higher concentration of hydrogen ions.
NH4HSO4 is acidic. When dissolved in water, it forms ammonium ion (NH4+) and hydrogen sulfate ion (HSO4-), which can donate a hydrogen ion (H+) to the solution, making it acidic.

No. It is very mildly acidic.

Alkaline
Pure water has a neutral pH of 7, meaning it is neither acidic nor alkaline. It is considered neutral because it has an equal balance of hydrogen ions (acidic) and hydroxide ions (alkaline).
The solution is an Alkaline 7 is neutral 1 is very acidic 14 is very alkaline The others are slightly acidic or alkaline
Sodium is an alkaline metal. In its pure form, it does not exhibit acidic properties.
It is a neutral gas that bleaches damp litmus paper. Gases themselves are not acidic/alkaline, it is only when they are combined with hydrogen ions (Hence the damp litmus paper) that they become acidic/alkaline and in this case acidic.
The opposite word of acidic is alkaline. Alkaline substances have a higher pH level than acidic substances.
