Properties of acids: React with most metals to form hydrogen gas, taste sour (like lemons), frequently feel "sticky", and usually are gases or liquids.
Properties of bases: Feel "slippery". The slippery feeling is caused because your skin dissolves a little when you touch them, taste bitter (like baking soda), React with oils and greases( that's why they're used as drain and window cleaners), frequently solids ( though ammonia is a gas that's usually dissolved in water.)
An acid has the pH under 7 and contain the cation H+; a base has a pH greater than 7 and contain the anion OH-. For example: a base is something bitter and forms hydroxide ions in solution. Something like soap, toothpaste, and drano. Another example: an acid is something sour and corrosive and forms hydrogen ions in a solution. Something like lemon juice, sour candy and anything like that.

What base burette and acid burette in apparatus?
A base burette contain a base, an acid burette contain an acid; any technical difference between these burettes.
Is flammability is an example of a chemical property?
Yes, because it shows you the difference between an acid or a base. An of course its both an acid and a base?
What is the difference between a strong acid or base and a weak acid or base?
Strong acids/bases will dissociate to almost 100% in water and their conjugate base/acid will be weak. Weak acid/base will not dissociate well in water and their conjugate base/acid will be strong.
What is the difference between an acid and a alkali so i can do homework?
What is the Difference between acid and alkaliAcids are...less than 6.50 on the pH scale but if it over 7.50 it is an alkali/ base.
What is the difference between a acid and a base?
Acid is sour in taste and base is bitter in taste and soapy to touch. But we should be careful and not try to taste acid or any base it may be very corrosive.
Difference between acid and base burette?
The difference between acid and base is in terms of hydrogen and hydroxide ions. Hydrogen ions are supplied by acid while hydroxide ions are supplied by base to a solution. A burette is used to measure the quantity of acid or base.

How do you measure whether something is an acid or a base?
A simple way to tell the difference between an acid and a base is by taste. An acid always has a sour taste and a base always has a bitter taste.
What is the difference between a strong acid and a weak base?
A strong acid will dissolve just about anything that is put in it. A weak base will do just about nothing.

What is an acid and what's a base?
acid is acid but there is a difference..........
What is the difference between a acid and a base?
Acid is sour in taste and base is bitter in taste and soapy to touch. But we should be careful and not try to taste acid or any base it may be very corrosive.
How indicators can tell the difference between acid and a base?
becase the acid will turn red and the alkile will turn purple
Difference between acid base titration and redox titration?
Acid base titration involves neutralization reaction between an acid and a base. whereas redox titration involves redox reaction between an oxidizing agent and reducing agent.
