ACIDS AND BASES
TOPIC 8 -ACIDS AND BASES
What is pH?
How do you measure pH?
What is the scale pH is measured on?
What pH level does water have? Is water acidic, basic, or neutral?
What is the most acidic pH level?
What is the most basic pH level?
In chemistry, pH is a scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution
The pH value can be measured using electrochemical measuring systems, litmus paper, or indicators and colorimeters.
pH is a measure of how acidic/basic water is. The range goes from 0 - 14, with 7 being neutral.
The most alkaline substances, such as lye, have a pH of 14.
The scale has values ranging from zero (the most acidic) to 14 (the most basic).
14 - (answer)
Atom- simplest form of matter p- H = e - n = n - no 7=7e 7pt 7e= le
+1 (GE) ions charges atoms
Acids - have hydrogen ions
H+
Bases- have hydroxide ion S0H-

In tech we learned about Acids and Bases. It was very hard.
