Question

Which type of solution is one with a pH 8?

Answer 1

Alkaline (basic)

Explanation:

Acid solutions range from pH `<=7`.

Neutral solutions are a pH of `7`.

Alkaline solutions range from pH `>=7`

Note:

pH can also be 0, negative, and go above 14 if the hydrogen ion concentration satisfies the pH equation (pH = `-log[H^+]`) .

Answer 2

`color (green)("Basic")`

Explanation:

Remember this
solution with
▪`pH >7` is `color (indigo)("basic")`
▪`pH <7` is `color (indigo)("acidic")`
▪`pH=7` is `color (indigo)("neutral")`
All at temperature slightly less than `color(red)(25°C)`

So, the given solution with `pH=8` is basic according to the information mentioned above.

Know why i mentioned temperature also ?
consider a glass of water its `pH=7`, when you heat it , ph begins to lower down , this doesn't mean that water becomes acidic but it means that k equilibrium has shifted , in simple words the number of both cations and anions rose .
