Black coffee has a pH of 5 and milk magnesia has a pH of 10 Is coffee twice as acididc as milk of magnesia?
Coffee is acidic. Milk of magnesia is basic. A neutral pH is 7. pH is logarithmic, so a pH of 5 is 10 times more acid than a pH of 6. since coffee is 2 less than 7 and milk of magnesia is 3 more than 7 it takes 1 part milk of magnesia to 10 parts coffee to neutralize each other.
What is the scale that measures thr acidity or basicity of a solution?
pH
How do chemists express the degree of acidity or basicity of a substances?
Chemists use the pH scale to express the degree of acidity or basicity of a substance. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with values below 7 indicating acidity, 7 being neutral, and values above 7 indicating basicity. pH is a logarithmic scale, so each whole number change represents a tenfold difference in the acidity or basicity of the substance.
How does milk of magnesia react to stomach acids?
Milk of magnesia does not act as a good buffer because the level of ph doesn't change rapidly. The ph needs to change for anything, acid or base.
People some times take milk of magnesia to counteract an acid stomach if you checked the ph of milk of magnesia would you expect it to be more or less than?
less than 7, because milk of magnesia is alkaline in nature. The pH would likely be around 10-11.

What is the pH level of the milk of magnesia?
The pH of Milk of Magnesia is approximately 10.5
Does milk of magnesia have basic properties?
Yes-- Milk of Magnesia is a 10.5 on the pH scale, thus making it a base. (pH of 7 is neutral-- higher is more basic, lower is more acidic)
Coffee has a pH of 5 and milk of magnesia has a pH of 10 Is coffee twice as acid as milk of magnesia?
Since the pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, a change in one pH unit signifies a tenfold modification in activity. In this case, coffee has a pH of 5, meaning that when compared to the pH of 10 in milk of magnesia, coffee is 100,000 (10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10) times more acidic than milk of magnesia.
Is milk of magnesia an acid or a bass?
Milk of Magnesia is an antacid and therefore a base with a ph of about 8.3
What is more basic amonia or milk of magnesia?
Milk of magnesia contains MgO. It is more basic than NH3.

What is the difference between pH and acidity?
pH is a scale used to measure acidity or basicity.

less than 7, because milk of magnesia is alkaline in nature. The pH would likely be around 10-11.
Is milk of magnesia a acid base or neutral?
Milk of magnesia is a basic (alkaline) substance because it contains magnesium hydroxide, which tends to increase the pH of a solution by accepting hydrogen ions.
