Acid Base Webquest

The document provides an introduction to acids and bases including definitions and key properties. It defines acids as tasting sour, being corrosive, and turning litmus red. Bases are described as feeling soapy, turning litmus blue, and reacting with acids. Common acids are said to taste sour and react with bases to form salts and water. Bases are said to feel soapy and have solutions that conduct electricity. A pH scale is presented with acids ranging from 0-6 and bases from 8-14. Several substances are listed and ranked from lowest to highest pH.
