Asolution that is a 4 on ph scale is a

A pH scale runs from 1 to 14 with 7 being neutral.

1-6 has base like properties
8-14 has avid line properties

since this solution has a pH scale of 4 the solution is basic

A solution that is 4 on pH scale is an acid. A pH scale is used to measure whether a solution is an acid or a base. the pH scale is numbered between 0 to 14. 7 is the neutral point of this scale. Any solution having a pH of 7 is a neutral solution. Acidity of a solution increases as the reading in the scale decreases from seven towards zero. The basic nature of the solution increases as the pH level of the solution increases from 7 towards 14. The acidic nature of a solution having pH value of 3 is ten times more acidic than a solution having pH value of 4. The same thing is same while comparing basic solutions as well.

"electrical energy" transforms to "thermal energy".hope my answer has you : )
