explain compare and contrast the properties of lemon juice and detergent,
including their ph relative to water.

Explanation:

Lemon juice has a pH range of \(2.2 - 2.4\), which is acidic (pH \(<7\)). Detergent has a pH range of \(9 - 10\), which is basic (pH \(>7\)). Water has a neutral pH of \(7\). So, lemon juice is more acidic than water, and detergent is more basic than water.

Answer:

Lemon juice (\(pH: 2.2 - 2.4\)) is acidic (more acidic than water, \(pH = 7\)). Detergent (\(pH: 9 - 10\)) is basic (more basic than water).
