Answer : The correct option is, sour taste

Explanation :

Acid : It is a substance that has ability of donating proton or hydrogen ion or hydronium ion, H^+.

The properties of an acid are :

  • Acids are sour in taste.
  • The texture of an acid solution is sticky.
  • It changes the color of the litmus paper to red.
  • It react with a metal to give compound and hydrogen gas.
  • The pH of an acid is less than 7.

Base : It is a substance that has ability of donating hydroxide ion, OH^-.

The properties of an base are :

  • Base are bitter in taste.
  • The texture of an base solution is slippery.
  • It changes the color of the litmus paper to blue.
  • It does not react with a metal.
  • The pH of a base is more than 7.

As per question, the pH is 5 that means the solution is acidic in nature and follow the properties of an acid. So, the pH = 5 has the sour taste characteristic. While the other options are the properties of a base.

Hence, the correct option is, sour taste
