We can identify acidic and basic solutions using their distinct and often contrasting properties, some of which you are likely familiar with! The strength of an acid or base can also vary and depends on how much it dissociates in solution.

Acids release charged hydrogen atoms (H⁺) in water, making them sour and capable of corroding metals. Bases produce charged hydroxide particles (OH⁻), have a bitter taste, and are effective at removing grease and oils. When combined, they neutralize each other, forming salt and water in a reaction called neutralization.
