Acidic solutions have a higher concentration of hydrogen ions (H^(+)) and a low concentration of hydroxide ions (OH^(-)).

Alkaline solutions have a higher concentration of hydroxide ions (OH^(-)) and a low concentration of hydrogen ions(H^(+)).

Water at pH = 7 has equal amounts of hydrogen ions and alkaline ions.

It naturally dissociates as H2O(l) < ====-> H^(+) + OH^(-).

Is potassium permanganate is acidic or alkaline in nature?

Potassium permanganate is acidic in nature. When dissolved in water, it releases hydrogen ions which lower the pH of the solution, making it acidic.


Universal indicator is a solution that changes what in an acidic or alkali solution?

Universal indicator doesn't change anything in an acidic or alkali solution. All universal indicator does is show how acidic or alkaline a solution is (red being acidic, green being neutral and blue being alkali)


What is a range of numbers that is used to describe how acidic a solution is?

The pH number lets us know how acidic or alkaline a solution is. pH from 1 to 6 is acidic, with lower numbers meaning more acidic. pH 7 is neutral, and 8 to 14 is alkaline (base), with 14 being the most alkaline. Hope this helps.


How could an indicator be used to find out if something is acidic or alkline if the label was missing?

An indicator can be used to determine whether a solution is acidic or alkaline by changing color in response to the pH level of the solution. For instance, litmus paper turns red in acidic conditions (pH &lt; 7) and blue in alkaline conditions (pH &gt; 7). Similarly, phenolphthalein is colorless in acidic environments and turns pink in alkaline solutions. By adding the indicator to the solution and observing the color change, one can identify whether the solution is acidic or alkaline.


Is sodium bicarbonate alkaline or acidic?

Sodium Bicarbonate is considered as acidic due to H+ ion. The formula is HCo3. Please remember when HCo3 dissolves the H+ ionizes and imparts acidity to alkaline solution.


If the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution is 10-10M is the solution acidic alkaline or neutral?

Alkaline


What happens when acidic solution react with alkaline solution and how?

When an acidic solution reacts with an alkaline solution, a neutralization reaction occurs. The hydrogen ions (H+) from the acid and hydroxide ions (OH-) from the base combine to form water (H2O). The resulting solution is neutral, with a pH of 7.
