The pH scale, or the measurement of [H3O+] ions and [OH-] ions in a solution. The scale goes from 0 to 14, 0-6 being acidic, 7 being neutral, and 8-14 being basic.

What name is given to substances that can neutralise acids?

Substances that can neutralize acids are called bases. Bases can react with acids to form salt and water through a chemical reaction called neutralization. Examples of bases include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and ammonia.


How can acids and bases do alone and together?

Acids can donate protons, while bases can accept protons. Individually, acids can increase the concentration of H+ ions in a solution, while bases can decrease it. When combined, an acid and a base can react to form water and a salt through a neutralization reaction.
