Basic solutions are solutions that have more than a 1E-7 concentration of hydroxide ion. Thus, solutions with "extra" hydroxide ions are basic. On the other hand, solutions with extra hydrogen (hydronium) ions are acidic.

Extra solute sitting at the bottom of a solution indicates the solution is what?
Saturated.
What are the differences between a substitutional solid solution and an interstitial solution?
With the one, you will need to go through extra processes in order to strengthen. With the other you do not need this extra stage.
What is the process of reaction of acid and base?
An acid in a water solution, such as HCl (hydrochloric acid), breaks into its ions, Cl- and H+. The hydrogen ion attaches to an unshared electron pair of a water molecule to form a H3O+, or "hydronium" ion. Bases, such as NaOH (sodium hydroxide), also dissociate into ions in water. The hydroxide ion (OH-) from the base lures the extra hydrogen from the hydronium to form another water molecule, and we're left with a salt solution. The entire process is: HCl + H2O + NaOH ---> H3O+ + Na+ + Cl- + OH- ---> NaCl + 2H2O And the overall reaction is: HCl + NaOH ---> NaCl + H2O
Explain what is meant by an isotonic solution?
You have 60 % of water in your body. 40% in the intro-cellular compartment and 20 % in the Extra cellular compartment. So it comes to be 40 liters in a 'Average' man weighing 70 kg.It means 28 liters in intro-cellular and 14 liters in extra cellular compartment. Human body has carried with it the part of sea, probably as a extra cellular compartment.Isotonic means that tonicity of fluid equal to body fluid.In extra cellular compartment, Sodium chloride is present mainly. It contains 'about' 150 mili mole of Sodium chloride.One mole of Sodium chloride contains 58.5 gram/liter of it.Mass number of Sodium being 23 and that of Chlorine is 35.5. So added together it makes 58.5 gram/liter. One mole of Glucose contains 180 grams/ liter. (C 6 H 12 O 6 means 126 plus 112 plus 16* 6, it means mass numbers of the respective elements.) (It means 1000 mili mole/liter.) So 9 gram/liter or 0.9 % of sodium chloride or 0.9 gram/100 ml, makes Isotonic saline solution. So Isotonic solution is compatible with 'Human' normal saline solution.It will neither make cells to shrink nor swell. So 0.45 % Sodium chloride solution is Hypo-tonic and 0.9% Sodium chloride with 5 % Glucose solution is Hyper-tonic.(In your body, Glucose will be rapidly utilized to give energy and you get Isotonic saline solution.) Normal saline solution means in which 1 mole of molecules dissolve/ liter and is a term used in chemistry. So when you say Normal saline, it means it contains 58.5 gram/liter of sodium chloride and will kill the patient in no time, after few infusions. So previously human normal saline and then 'Isotonic' saline solution is the correct term to be used. The normal saline solution available in market is not "Normal'. It is 'Isotonic' solut
Why do doctors order an IV of hypertonic solution?
Doctors would order an IV of Hypertonic solution to provide the patient with extra calories. It is also used in patients who need electrolytes.
What is the chemical solution for hydronium?
The chemical formula for hydronium is H3O+. It is formed when an extra proton (H+) attaches to a water molecule (H2O). Hydronium is an important species in acidic solutions.
What is the difference between hydronium ion and hydrogen ion?
Hydrogen Ion is obtained by removing one electron from hydrogen atom. It is represented by H+ ,which is a proton. In aqueous solution it combines with water molecule to form hydronium ion, which is represented by H3O+.
Is it possible for a solution to be both an electrolyte and an acid?
Yes!An acid (generally speaking) will form H3O+, or hydronium ions (an extra H is attached to a water molecule) in aqueous solution.An electrolyte is a solution whose aqueous solutions conduct electricity.An example would be Hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid, HCl(aq) will completely disassociate in aqueous solution (dissolve), and hence form Hydronium ions.Hydronium ions are very mobile in water, and will transfer the electrical charge throughout the solution, hence making it electricity conductible.
What are the active ingredients of mylanta extra strength?
Aluminum Hydroxide and Magnesium Hydroxide.
Will a chlorine ion lose its extra electron to a sodium ion when they are separated by an electric field in an aqueous solution?
no, because the electric potential of sodium is so low.But chlorine will give electron to proton to form hydrogen gas

What is the name of Salt solution with extra not dissolved salt?
This is a supersaturate solution.
Extra solute sitting at the bottom of a solution indicates the solution is what?
Saturated.
What is in potassium hydroxide?
Potassium hydroxide is a fairly simple ionic compound consisting of positively charged potassium ions (K+) and negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-). A hydroxide ion consists of a hydrogen atom and an oxygen atom bonded together with an extra electron on the oxygen atom.
What is the term for a semiconductors that contains electrons?
N-type semiconductor contains extra electrons.
