7-7.6 ????
I don't know where this answer came from, but straight out of the bottle household bleach has a ph of about 12.6! This comes from several references and my own measurement with a Hanna meter.
Household bleach is a strong alkaline solution, making it difficult to accurately measure its pH using universal indicator. Universal indicator is more suited for measuring pH in the neutral to slightly acidic range, and may not provide an accurate or precise reading for highly alkaline substances like bleach. A pH meter or specific alkaline pH indicator may be more suitable for measuring the pH of household bleach.
Household bleach has a pH around 12-13, making it basic, while household ammonia has a pH of around 11-12, also making it basic. However, bleach is more alkaline than ammonia, making it a stronger base.
This is a basic material.
Household bleach is a base. It has a high pH level, typically around 12-13, which makes it more alkaline on the pH scale.
The pH of bleach color is 13.
Household bleach is a strong base, typically with a pH of around 11-13, which is outside the color range of universal indicator, making it difficult to accurately measure its pH using this indicator. Universal indicator is more useful for measuring pH in the neutral to slightly acidic range. To accurately measure the pH of bleach, a pH meter or pH paper with a broader range would be more suitable.
Household bleach is about 6% sodium hypochlorite and has a pH around 12 to 12.6 (Highly basic, or alkaline).
No, household bleach is a strong base. Both strong acids and strong bases are caustic.
There are many different household cleaners, and their pH's vary widely. Some toilet cleaners are pH 1 -2, washing up liquid is about 7 to 8 and oven cleaner is 11 -13. It can also vary with the brand.
It isn't. the pH of Bleach is ~12.6, making it a highly basic substance. (Basic is the opposite end of the spectrum from acidic, but extremes of either are both dangerous.)
A substance with a pH of 11 is considered alkaline, falling on the basic end of the pH scale. Some examples of substances with a pH of 11 include household ammonia, bleach, and some soaps.
The difference in Hydrogen ion concentration between pH12 an pH13 is 10 fold. But, no one should consider a solution with a pH of 12 an "acidic solution". Anything above pH 7 is a basic or alkaline solution.
