23
Q

Alkalis, also known as ______, have a pH above 7.0, taste bitter, and turn litmus paper from red to blue. The higher the pH number, the greater the degree of alkalinity. A pH of 7 is a neutral solution.

A

24
Q

A method of displaying data in multiples of 10. The pH scale, a change of one whole number represents a tenfold change in pH. A pH of 9 is 100 times more alkaline than a pH of 7. (Multiply by 10’s, 10x10=100)

25
Q

Occur when an acid is mixed with an alkali, also called a base, in equal proportions to neutralize each other and form water (H2O) and a salt.

A

Acid-alkali neutralization reaction

26
Q

Also known as redox, is a chemical reaction in which the oxidizing agent is reduced and the reducing agent is oxidized. An oxidizing agent is a substance that release oxygen. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an example of an oxidizing agent and can be thought of as water with an extra atom of oxygen.

A

Oxidation-reduction

A reduction is the subtracting of oxygen or the addition of hydrogen. The chemical reaction is called redox reaction.

27
Q

Why are acid-alkali neutralization reactions and oxidation-reduction important for estheticians to know?

A

They explain how skin care products work

49
Q

Chemical compound of hydrogen and oxygen, is a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor and slightly acid taste. Used in hair coloring developers and antiseptics.

A

Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2)

50
Q

Hydrogen ion (H+) is acidic, and hydroxide ion (OH-) is alkaline. pH is only possible because of this ionization of water. Only products that contain water can have a pH.

In pure (distilled) water, each water molecule that ionizes produces one hydrogen ion and one hydroxide ion. Pure water has a neutral pH because it contains the same number of hydrogen ions as hydroxide ions. Equal balance 50% acid, 50% alkaline.

As acidity increases, alkalinity decreases. The opposite is also true; as alkalinity increases, acidity decreases.

A
