Maybe if you asked the question properly, we could answer.
acid
False
a base
If it is in water (supposedly meant by questioneer), the pH value is below 7.0, so it is an acid solution: more H+ than OH-
If a substance has more hydrogen ions than hydroxyl ions it causes the substance to be acidic on the pH scale, and vice versa. Hydrogen ions have a positive charge while hydroxyl has an negative.
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-).
Acid.
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.
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.
Acid. It contains hyrdonium ions more than hydroxide ions.
acid
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.
It will be acidic having less amount of hydroxide ions.
It can be either. A solution with excess hydronium ions is one that is acidic, regardless of how strong the acid is.
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
both
A base will produce hydroxide ions (OH-).
