An acid is a substance that forms hydrogen ions H + when dissolved in water, and; A base is a substance that forms hydroxide ions OH-when dissolved in water. For example, hydrochloric acid (\(\ce{HCl}\)) is an acid because it forms \(\ce{H^{+}}\) when it dissolves in water.

An acid is any hydrogen-containing substance that is capable of donating a proton (hydrogen ion) to another substance. A base is a molecule or ion able to accept a hydrogen ion from an acid. Acidic substances are usually identified by their sour taste.

Transcript. We can determine whether a salt solution will be acidic, basic, or neutral by considering the reactivity of both the cation and the anion with water. If neither species reacts with water, the solution will be neutral. If only the cation reacts with water, the solution will be acidic.

- Na+ is a cation, having a positive charge. Needing a negative charge from water, it could potentially react with either H+ or OH-. H+ doesn't work...
- I am assuming that you are adding equimolar amounts of the weak acid and weak base. Yes, the salts A⁻ and BH⁺ would still be formed. HA + B --> BH⁺...
- I am uncertain how it can react... Water consists of H2O, which may turn into H+ OH-. but the Cl- will not react with H+ to reform HCl because that...
- It's a two-part reaction. The first part is a double displacement reaction. (NH₄)₂SO₄(aq) + Ca(OH)₂(aq) → 2CaSO₄(s) + 2NH₄⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) The seco...
- NaOH is a strong base, so it is unlikely to re-associate in solution. It tends to dissociate in any aqueous solution.
- Because if you have NH4+ In solution it will react with H2O... Whereas Cl- won’t
- NaCl in my idea according to the reaction: NaOH + HCl = NaCl + H2O
- Think about the strength of an acid as its tendency to release a proton. So, the stronger the acid the more it wants to get rid of the acidic proto...
- Carbonic acid is a weak acid, H₂CO₃ +H₂O ⇌ H₃O⁺ + HCO₃⁻; Kₐ = 4.2 × 10⁻⁷ The small value of Kₐ shows that HCO₃⁻ prefers to exist as H₂CO₃. Thus, in...
Jan 13, 2024 · Acid-base chemistry involves accepting or donating either protons or electron pairs. Acid-base chemistry is a fundamental aspect of chemical science that plays a crucial role in our daily lives. Its applications range from industrial processes to biological systems.
acid–base reaction, a type of chemical process typified by the exchange of one or more hydrogen ions, H +, between species that may be neutral ( molecules, such as water, H 2 O; or acetic acid, CH 3 CO 2 H) or electrically charged (ions, such as ammonium, NH 4+; hydroxide, OH −; or carbonate, CO 32− ).
Jan 30, 2023 · Any acid or base is technically a conjugate acid or conjugate base also; these terms are simply used to identify species in solution (i.e acetic acid is the conjugate acid of the acetate anion, a base, while acetate is the conjugate base of acetic acid, an acid).
Acids and bases can be described using the Arrhenius model: acids produce H+ ions in aqueous solutions, while bases produce OH- ions. We can identify acidic and basic solutions using their distinct and often contrasting properties, some of which you are likely familiar with!
