Some examples of bases that we use in our daily

lives are..

Ammonia which is used to manufacture

nitric acid.

Aluminum hydroxide which is used to make

gastric medicine.

Calcium hydroxide which is used to make

cement and the used for the application of sewage treatment.

Sodium hydroxide which is used in the manufacture of

soaps, cleaners and detergents.

Some examples of acids that we use in out daily lives are...

Benzoic acid which is salt used to preserve food.

Carbonic acid which is used to make carbonated drinks.

Ethanoic acid which is vinegar.

Hydrochloric acid which is used for household cleaning, pool cleaning

and to clean metals.

Sulphuric acid which is used for detergent and to make soft drinks.

The pH scale is a logarithmic and because of this, each whole pH value below 7 is ten times more acidic than the next higher value.

Example: pH 4 is ten times more acidic than pH 5 and ten times more amore acidic than pH 6 ( 10 times 10)

The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a substance is. the pH scale ranges from 0 to 14.

A pH of 7 is neutral,  a pH less than 7 is an acid, and a pH more than 7 is a base.

Acid-  A chemical substance that neutralizes alkalis, dissolves some metals and turns litmus paper red. Has a sour taste.

Base- A substance that is slippery, tastes bitter and changes litmus paper blue. It reacts with acids to form salt.

pH is defined as the decimal logarithm

of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion

activity.

pH= -log10(aH+) = log10(1/9H+)

This guy is the one to blame. He came up with the term pH and the pH scale.
