its either base or both because i put acid on a worksheet and got it wrong
yer yer u no
A base and an acid
moles of acid = moles base = moles base/liter x liters of base used
Fertilizer consists of 3 main elements: Nitrogen (N) ,Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K); Between those three, only Phosphorus (P) can be considered an acid.
Milk of magnesia (pH of 8.5) is a base because it is used to calm an upset stomach (due to too much acid).
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
Bases
acid
it is not an acid. that's all i know. good luck! :PAnswerMost commercial fertilizers in the US are mild bases, frequently salts of one kind or another. However, one common fertilizer, anhydrous ammonia, is a very strong base.
sulphuric acid
It depends on the acid or base used. For strong acid vs. strong base, phenolphthalein can be used as indicator. For strong acid vs. weak base, methyl orange can be used as indicator. For weak acid vs. strong base, phenolphthalein can be used as indicator.
it contains Phosphoric Acid as well as its potassium salts K3PO4, K2HPO4, KH2PO4
Since the word "acid" is used in the name, you can bet it is an acid, and not a base.
Sulfuric Acid
As in all acid-base (alkali) reactions, it will reduce the acidity of the soil and, if there is an excess of base to acid, it can make the soil become alkaline. The soil will be less acidic if base is less than acidity, become neutral (if base = acidity), or become alkaline if base is greater than acidity.
It is a very good fertilizer and is used to prepare the Nitric acid.
Manure is organic matter used as organic fertilizer in agriculture.
