Best Answer

Any acid can be used to neutralize a base such as sodium hydroxide. If you have a concentrated solution of sodium hydroxide, you could neutralize it most efficiently with a strong acid such as hydrochloric acid. You can also neutralize it with Coca Cola, or vinegar, or many other acidic chemicals, but it would require a larger amount than if you used hydrochloric acid.

Is it necessary for every compound to be acidic or basic or neutral?

To measure the pH of a substance it has to be in solution so if the substance is insoluble you cannot measure its pH. A basic substance is not the same as an alkaline substances. A basic substance is one which can neutralise an acid. An alkaline substance is a solution of a base. For example, chalk (calcium carbonate) is basic as it neutralises acids but as it is insoluble, it is not an alkali. However solid sodium hydroxide can be described as a base as it can neutralise an acid and as it is soluble in water, a solution of sodium hydroxide is both a base and an alkali.
