An acid is a substance the produces hydrogen ions (H+) when mixed with water while a base produces hydroxide ions (OH-). Another models says that and acid donates or gives away a proton (H+) while a base accepts a proton.

i got my science book in front of me :). so easy. Acids: Hydrogen ions causes foods to taste sour may burn you dissolve in inorganc acids. Bases: when dissolved in water forms hydroxide ions (OH) hydroxide ions contain hydrogen and oxygen atoms. some bases break up fats and oils. some bases taste bitter. WARNING: to check if its an acid or a base do not taste or touch. im serious u can die get knocked out get burned.
bases neutralise the acids
acids and bases are important!
Acids: H+ and Bases: OH-
The reaction between bases and acids is a neutralization reaction.

Characteristics of bases are: bitter in taste, soapy feel on fingers, mostly react with acids and precipitate salts, turn red litmus paper blue, contain metal oxides or hydroxides.
Acids and bases are both electrolytes that dissociate into ions in solution, and they both can react with each other to form water and a salt. They also both can conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
Mg2+ ions do not act as either acids or bases. They are typically found in ionic compounds and do not donate or accept protons, which are characteristics of acids and bases, respectively.
Yes, concentrated acids and bases are more corrosive than dilute acids and bases
Of course they are. They are many acids and bases
bases neutralise the acids

Of course they are. They are many acids and bases
They don't dissolve (or more properly, dissociate) completely in water, only partially. Acids or bases that dissociate completely are called strong acids or bases.
Acids taste bitter.
Acids have a lower PH and bases have a higher PH.
