Test Review: Chemical & Acid-Base Reactions

A student is trying to determine if a solution is acidic or basic. She does not have any litmus paper. Which would she most likely use to get a reading on her solution?

• Vinegar

• Soap

• Cabbage Juice

• Aquarium Water

Which solution has the greatest number of hydrogen ions?

• blood, pH = 7.2

• lemon juice, pH = 2
