Answer: acid; acidic

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a glass of pure water and add acidic lemon juice to it. This means that you are adding ACID to it, and the solution will become ACIDIC.

Pure water has a pH value of 7

Lemon juice has a pH value less than 7 i.e acidic

Therefore, addition of lemon juice to pure water will drop the latter pH from 7 to form a final solution that is ACIDIC.
