When dissolved in water, what is the common ion released by acids by bases?
Okay, I understand that. Can you explain what pH is and how it relates to acids and bases?
pH is a measure of the acidity or basicity of a solution. It ranges on a scale of 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral, lower values are acidic and higher values are basic. Acids have a pH lower than 7, while bases have a pH greater than 7.
