1. Acids and bases are easier to use and observe when dissolved in water. These solutions are called aqueous solutions.
2. Certain dyes can be used to determine whether a substance is an acid or base. On litmus paper, acids turn red and bases turn blue.
3. Most bases accept hydrogen ions and most acids lose hydrogen ions.
4. The oxides of metals are usually bases and the oxides of nonmetals are generally acids. Oxides can produce either acidic or basic compounds.
