Pure water is considered neutral, as it is found at "7" on the pH scale.
Ideally bottled water would be neither an acid, nor a base. However, most bottled water is actually slightly acidic (pH 6.0-6.5). The reason bottlers do this is that their research shows that people like the tasty of slightly acidic water better than the taste of truly neutral water.
What else can I help you with?
What color pH paper will turn in Tonic water?
Tonic water is usually acidic due to the presence of carbonic acid and citric acid, so pH paper will likely turn a color indicating acidity such as red or pink.
What is the general equation for a acid-base reaction?
Here are the four general acid reactions. Acid + Base = Salr + Water Acid + Alkali = Salt + Water Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soliuble base.
A reaction of an acid and base will produce water and what?
An acid and a base react to form water and a salt
When water is added to a strong acid or base the acid or base becomes less dilute?
When water is added to a strong acid or base, the concentration of the acid or base decreases because water dilutes the solution. This results in a less concentrated solution of the acid or base.
What is the general form for the simplest type of acid base reaction?
Acid + base salt + water
What is in tonic water quinine?
It is a weak base, not an acid. No wonder its excretion is improved by acidification of urine
Which soda drink is acid free?
tonic water

Explains water's role in acid-base reactions?
water is responsible for ionization of acid and base, without water the terms acid and base are meaningless.
When water is added to a strong acid or base the acid or base becomes less dilute?
When water is added to a strong acid or base, the concentration of the acid or base decreases because water dilutes the solution. This results in a less concentrated solution of the acid or base.
What is the general form for the simplest type of acid base reaction?
Acid + base salt + water
What is the General equation for acid reacting with a base?
acid + base → salt + water
What is formed when an acid and a base is mixed?
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
Is water in acid or base?
Water is neutral, with a pH of 7. It is not an acid or a base.
Can an acid and a base react to form an acid?
NO!!!! Remember the general acid reaction equations. Acid + Base = Salt +Water Acid +Alkali = Salt + Water Acid +Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soluble Base.
