1

Buffer

a weak acid or base in solution that resists changes in pH when a moderate amount of either an acid or base is added.

New cards
2

Indicator

a substance that changes color in the presence of an acid or base.

New cards
3

Neutralization

a double- replacement reaction between an acid and a base that produces a salt and water.

New cards
