Are acids and alkalis the same?
No, acids and alkalis are not the same. Acids are compounds that release hydrogen ions when dissolved in water, whereas alkalis are compounds that release hydroxide ions when dissolved in water. Acids have a pH less than 7, while alkalis have a pH greater than 7.
How can you tell how strong acids and alkalis are using the pH scale?
Acids have a pH under 7, alkalis have a pH bigger than 7.
When we use acids and alkalis what must we always wear?

What chemical is opposite of an acid?
Bases and Alkalis are the opposites of acids. Alkalis are bases dissolved in water. When combined in the equal quantities, they neutralise each other.
What particle is present in most alkalis?
Most alkalis contain hydroxide ions (OH⁻) as their primary particle. These ions are responsible for the basic properties of alkalis, which typically include substances like sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium hydroxide (KOH). The presence of hydroxide ions allows alkalis to neutralize acids and conduct electricity in solution.
Do acids counteract alkalis?
Yes, acids neutralize alkalis and inverse.
Are alkalis and acids dangerous?
Acids and alkalis with a high pH (1 or 2 for acids and 14 or 15 for alkalis) can be dangerous, like hydrochloric acid which can cause damage to the skin if contact with the acid is made. Acids and alkalis with a low pH (5 for acids and 11 for alkalis) aren't dangerous, as vinegar is an acid with that pH and toothpaste is an alkali.
