Describe te pH scale. What determines whether or not a substance is an acid?
The pH scale is a measure of the acidity or basicity of a substance. It ranges from 0 to 14, where 0-6.9 is acidic, 7 is neutral, and 7.1-14 is basic. The concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in a solution determines whether a substance is an acid (more H+ ions) or a base.
What test can you know if it is a acid or base?
