do u know what defines as an acid or base?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Everything having pH between 7 to 14 is base

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u know it is found in detergents and that u have the pH, so it has to be a base or acid

One is the Arrhenius definition, which revolves around the idea that acids are substances that ionize (break off) in an aqueous solution to produce hydrogen (H+) ions while bases produce hydroxide (OH-) ions in solution.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes bases pH are 8-14
