What are some similarities and differences between acids and base?

Similarities between acids and bases include their ability to conduct electricity in solution and their involvement in neutralization reactions. Differences include acids donating protons (H+) in solution while bases accept protons, leading to differences in pH levels and chemical properties. Acids typically have a pH below 7, while bases have a pH above 7.


Do bases tastes bitter or acids?

Acids taste bitter.


Why are bases sometimes describes as the opposite of acids?

Bases are the opposite of acids due to the fact they are a hydrogen ion acceptor and an acid is a hydrogen ion donor. In the many definitions of bases and acids, bases do the opposite of what acids do. -- In the Lewis definition, acids are electron pair acceptors while bases are electron pair donors. -- In the Bronsted-Lowry definition, acids are substances that donate protons while bases are substances that accepts protons. -- In practicality, acids lower the pH of a solution and bases increase the pH of a solution.


What is a Chemical compounds that converts strong acids or bases into weak acids or bases?

A chemical compound that converts strong acids or bases into weak acids or bases is called a buffer. Buffers help to stabilize the pH of a solution by absorbing excess hydrogen or hydroxide ions, thereby minimizing changes in pH when strong acids or bases are added.

Do acids dissolve in bases or do bases dissolve in acids?

They don't dissolve (or more properly, dissociate) completely in water, only partially. Acids or bases that dissociate completely are called strong acids or bases.


Is heat of neutralization same for every acid-base pair?

No, the heat of neutralization can vary for different acid-base pairs due to differences in the strength of the acids and bases involved. Stronger acids and bases typically release more heat during neutralization compared to weaker acids and bases.
