Acids and Alkalines

• Acidic solutions have pH values less than 7.
• PH paper can’t be used to test for deeply coloured substances
• Neutralization is a process which one acid and one alkali mix up to produce water and salt
• Salt is made up by neutralisation and it’s named by the acid’s first name and alkali‘s last name
• sulphuric acids + sodium hydroxide=water + sodium sulphurate
• Alkali‘s ph value is higher than 7
• 7 is the ph value of neutral substances such as distilled water
• Litmus paper is a paper that changes color when it comes in contact with an acid or alkali.
• Litmus paper is made from lichen and lichen is a natural combination of algae and fungi etc
• ph meter is used to measure ph value accurately and ph paper is used to measure ph value roughly , ph meter also shows more digital of number of the ph value instead of just integars
