Question

complete the following table regarding acids and bases.

	acids	bases
ph range
example

Explanation:

Step1: Define acid behavior

When acids dissolve in water, they increase the concentration of $H^+$ ions.

Step2: Determine acid pH range

Acids have a pH range of less than 7 ($pH < 7$).

Step3: Give an acid example

An example of an acid is hydrochloric acid ($HCl$).

Step4: Define base behavior

When bases dissolve in water, they decrease the concentration of $H^+$ ions (or increase the $OH^-$ concentration which reacts with $H^+$).

Step5: Determine base pH range

Bases have a pH range of greater than 7 ($pH>7$).

Step6: Give a base example

An example of a base is sodium hydroxide ($NaOH$).

Answer:

	Acids	Bases
pH range	$pH < 7$	$pH>7$
Example	$HCl$	$NaOH$
