What type of chemical reaction will a balloon receive when filled with an acid and base?
Acids and bases are around us everywhere in various types of liquids. They are in the foods we eat and the things we use on a daily basis, for example liquid dishwashing soap. Acids are usually sour and bases are silky, giving it a bitter taste. Water can act like both, depending on the situation. It always depends on the type of ion present in the liquid to make it an acid or base. A liquid must contain more hydrogen ions to be considered an acid, but if it contains more hydroxide ions it must be a base. Scientists measure the acidity or basicity of a liquid with a scale known as the pH scale. The scale ranges from 0 to 14. It becomes weaker and weaker
