acidic
pH of a solution tells us about the nature of a solution( i.e acidic or basic ) if pH of a solution is less than 7 tahn it's acidic if it's 7 then it's neutral and more than seven will make it base.
The pH scale measures the acidity of a substance or solution. It runs from 1 ( very acidic ) to 14 ( very basic ). 7 is nuetral. Hydrogen ions make the solution more acidic, OH ( hydroxil ) makes a solution very basic.
A baking soda solution will have a higher pH (above 7) due to its basic nature. It can be used as an antacid for heartburn and indigestion. It may also be effective in neutralizing acidic substances.
Any solution, acidic or basic, can be made more dilute by adding water, thereby increasing its volume without the addition of any solute.
Salt neutralization refers to the process of adding a base to an acidic solution or an acid to a basic solution to achieve a neutral pH. This reaction results in the formation of a salt and water. It is a common method used to adjust the pH of a solution to make it more neutral.

All pops are acidic because they contain carbonation. The carbonation is tiny bubbles of carbon dioxide which will mix with the solution and make it acidic.

Small amounts of gasses compete to make it slightly acidic or basic.
In short, it is impossible for a base to be acidic: it follows from definition that if something were basic, it cannot be acidic at the same (this is different from amphoteric substances, which react with both but are not both themselves). As well as this, a solution with pH < 7 is acidic; again by definition, if it causes a pH lower than 7 it cannot be basic.
Acidic gas :)
SeO3 would be acidic, tending to make selenic acid H2SeO4

Sodium bicarbonate is slightly basic in water as it reacts with water to produce hydroxide ions (OH-) which make the solution slightly alkaline.
Litmus paper turns red if the solution is acidic and blue if the solution is basic. Vinegar is an acidic solution (due to acetic acid), and will turn the litmus paper red.
An aqueous solution of Cu(NO3)2 is neutral because the nitrate ion (NO3-) does not significantly contribute to acidity or basicity in water. However, copper ions (Cu2+) from Cu(NO3)2 can slightly hydrolyze in water to form Cu(OH)+ ions, which can make the solution slightly acidic.
