Answer:
why is it important to know about the acid and base?and what is you basis to identifying if that solution is acid or base
- Acids and bases are important to many chemical processes: maintaining a stable internal environment in the human body, baking a delicious cake, or determining whether a lake can support aquatic life. Reactions involving acids and bases can be described through the transfer of protons – single H+ ions.
- The chemical difference between acids and bases is that acids produce hydrogen ions and bases accept hydrogen ions. A base is a substance that neutralises acids. When bases are added to water, they split to form hydroxide ions, written as OH-. We call a base that has been added to water an alkaline solution
