Select all true statements below: Lower pH ranges are assigned to acids. A salt is produced as a result of a chemical reaction between an acid and a base. The lower the pH, the more alkaline a substance. When a neutralization reaction occurs, a base is produced. Higher pH ranges are assigned to bases.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking to identify which statements about acids, bases, and pH are true. Each statement relates to the properties of acids and bases, and participants are required to select the correct ones.
Answer
Lower pH ranges are assigned to acids, a salt is produced from an acid-base reaction, higher pH ranges are for bases.
The true statements are: 'Lower pH ranges are assigned to acids', 'A salt is produced as a result of a chemical reaction between an acid and a base', and 'Higher pH ranges are assigned to bases'.
Answer for screen readers
The true statements are: 'Lower pH ranges are assigned to acids', 'A salt is produced as a result of a chemical reaction between an acid and a base', and 'Higher pH ranges are assigned to bases'.
More Information
A pH less than 7 is acidic, and a pH greater than 7 is basic. Acids and bases react to form a salt and water.
Tips
Avoid confusing pH with alkalinity. pH below 7 is acidic, not alkaline.
