∙ 12y agoFoods and beverages listed as neutral include tap water, most vegetable oils (with the exception of olive oil), and unsalted forms of raw or fresh dairy products (milk, cream, butter, cow margarine). The word 'neutral' is often used for near-neutral foods which include honey, corn syrup and sugar, brown rice, some nuts, and some vegetables. A number of online sources carry detailed information on food pH and associated health effects or benefits.

∙ 12y agoMost foods that we eat nowadays are around pH 1-2, this enables us to absorb the most H+ ions which are vital for body and muscle growth.

What do acids react with to form a neutral solution?
bases?
What is the significance of acid and bases in your industry?
Acids and bases are chemical substances that release ions when dissolved in water. Acids are compounds that release positive hydrogen ions in water. Bases release hydroxide ions, which are compounds made of an oxygen and a hydrogen. Acids and bases are used around the house for cleaning, but the levels of acids and bases in the body are also important. The body needs a neutral pH and controls the amounts of acids and bases through processes involving the kidneys, lungs and blood. Acids and bases are found in foods, the environment and in chemicals including pharmaceuticals. The pH levels in the blood are required to stay neutral, which is at a level of 7. When a dieter eats acidic foods, the body uses a buffering system to neutralize the positive ions released from the acids. Conversely, bases are also controlled to keep the body from becoming too alkaline.
What is generally true about strong bases and strong acids?
They are neutral
When describing acids used and bases what does neutral mean?
The pH level is from 1 to 14. 1 thru 6 is acids and 8 thru 14 is bases. Neutral means that it is neither an acid or a base. Water would be a neutral.
Why is it dangerous to taste acids and bases?
Acids and bases can have extreme pH ranges, making it dangerous to taste them. The pH scale is a measure of how acidic or basic a solution is; acids can have a pH of 0-7, while bases range from 7-14. Your mouth is 'neutral', meaning it has a pH of 7. If you put strong acids or bases (pH very low or very high on the scale) in your mouth, where the environment is neutral, the acid or base will harm your mouth. However, some acids such as vinegar and basic foods like watermelon and asparagus are safe to eat, because they are not strong enough to harm your body.
What is the between acids and bases?
Neutral
Are esters acids bases or neutral?
Esters are neutral compounds
Is water neutral between acids and bases?
Yes.
What do acids react with to form a neutral solution?
bases?
Why are acids and bases considered strong?
They either have a high concentration of H+ ions (acids) or OH- ions (bases). Strong acids and bases are also highly corrosive relative to weaker more neutral acids/bases.

Do acids react with neutral liquids to form bases?
yes it does

What does PH scale describes?
The PH scale is the measurement of acids and bases. 8 and up are bases. 6 and lower are acids. 7 is neutral.

When describing acids and bases what does neutral mean?
Neutral means if the is a reaction between a base and alkali which forms a salt.
