How do you differentiate between an acid and an alkali?

An acid has a pH level below 7, whilst an alkali has a pH level above 7. Acids contain H+ ions and alkalis consist of OH- ions. Acids turn litmus paper red, alkalis turn it blue. When acids react with metals they form hydrogen and a salt. Acids a sour to taste. Alakalis react with acids to form salt and water, a reaction called neutralisation. Alkalies feel soapy to touch. All alkalis except ammonia will react with ammonium compounds, driving ammonia out.

What acids are produced by the gases sulfur and nitrogen?

They both need reacting with other chemicals, typically oxygen, then dissolving in (usually) water to form acids, Depending on the conditions and reactives involved there are numerous acids. The most common are: Sulphuric acid Sulphurous acid Nitric acid Nitrous acid But there are others, depending on the situation.
