What liquids can you use to change the color of litmus paper?

Any acid or base should do the trick.Any compound with excess hydrogen ions (H+) or excess hydroxide ions (OH-). Also, any compound that absorbs hydrogen ions (H+) or hydroxide ions (OH-).


What contains more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions a base or an acid?

Acid.


What makes acid a acid and a base a base?

If the substance produces Hydrogen ions when it is dissolved in water, then it is an acid. If it produces Hydroxide ions when it is dissolved in water, then it is a base.


What is the neutralization of an acid and a base?

If Hydrochloric acid (with a PH of around 1) is added to Sodium Hydroxide(with a PH of around 14), if the quantities are even then the end product will have a PH close to 7 (A neutral PH). This is why it is called NeutralizationPut another way, if the proper amount and concentration of an acid and a base are mixed, the two will completely react to form a salt and water.e.g. the reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide:HCl + NaOH --> H2O + NaClWater has a pH of 7. So does sodium chloride. Therefore, the resulting solution is neutral.


Is HCL an acid base or is it neutral?

Acid. It contains hyrdonium ions more than hydroxide ions.


Is solution with four times as many hydronium ions hydroxide ions a acid base or a neutral?

acid


What is acid what is base?

An acid is a sour substance which has Hydrogen (H^+) ions in it. A base on the other hand is bitter and has Hydroxide (OH^-) ions in it.


Is water an acid or base if it has less amount of hydroxide ions compared to hydronium ions?

It will be acidic having less amount of hydroxide ions.


Excess hydronium ions?

It can be either. A solution with excess hydronium ions is one that is acidic, regardless of how strong the acid is.


How excess acidity can be treated using calcium hydroxide?

Calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2 is a base and neutralizes acid. When a solution is acidic it contains excess hydrogen (H+) ions, calcium produces the hydroxide ion (OH-) in water, which reacts wit h the H+ ions to produce water. OH- + H+ --> H2O


Is produces hydroxide ions in solution an acid base or both?

both


Does an acid or a base produce OH in water?

A base will produce hydroxide ions (OH-).
