How do acids and bases differ from neutrals?
well... acid burns stuff like jelly fish but those pesky bases are turkey repellants but thats not my proplem
How are strong acids and bases defined?
Strong acids and bases are those for which Ka (or Kb) is very much greater than 1 - at least around 103.
Why are bases sometimes describes as the opposite of acids?
Bases are the opposite of acids due to the fact they are a hydrogen ion acceptor and an acid is a hydrogen ion donor. In the many definitions of bases and acids, bases do the opposite of what acids do. -- In the Lewis definition, acids are electron pair acceptors while bases are electron pair donors. -- In the Bronsted-Lowry definition, acids are substances that donate protons while bases are substances that accepts protons. -- In practicality, acids lower the pH of a solution and bases increase the pH of a solution.
What are 3 amino acids?
There are 20-22amino acids. You may be refering to the 4 genetic bases. These are Guanine, Adenine, Thymine and Cytosine.
What are neutralisation reactions?
Neutralization reactions are those that involve acids and bases. The products formed in a neutralization reaction is a salt and water.
What projects are there with Acids and bases?
Some projects that are related with Acids and Bases are those that deal with either finding the pH value of a solution or liquid, or when you use the pH value to find whether a liquid is an acid or base. A project I did involved using a liquid that was exactly neutral and a color code (which you can find anywhere online) to see whether or not a household liquid such as lemonade or bleach was an acid or base
How do essential amino acids differ from non-essential amino acids?
"Essential" amino acids are those that are essential in the diet. The body can make the others from simpler compounds. Which amino acids are "essential" depends on the species; they're not the same for humans that they are for, say, cats. Other than that, there's no difference.
What is the similarity between acid and base?
Acids are those substances which when dissolved into water give the solution a hydrogen activity greater than in pure water or it is a substance that donates a proton. Similarly, a base is a substance which accepts a proton. There is no major similarity in acids and bases rather they have opposite nature. One minor similarity is that common acids and bases contain hydrogen atoms.
What Electrical conductivity in acids and bases?
No. Pure water does not conduct electricity, but when something is put into water and dissociates (breaks apart), then electricity can travel across those ions. But this has nothing to do with pH.
How many amino acids are there that make up proteins?
The number of amino acids/protein differ largely and is characteristic for each protein separately. A protein is composed of amino acids, and the function of the protein depends of the type and order of the amino acids. Because amino acids can be arranged in many different combinations, it's possible for your body to make thousands of different kinds of protein from just the same 20 amino acids.The simplest protein of life, ribonuclease, contains 124 amino acids. The "average" protein, though, contains several thousand amino acids, but those several thousand comprised only about 20 different kinds of amino acids.
Weak acids and weak bases?
Weak acids and weak bases are substances that partially dissociate in water. Weak acids donate only a small portion of their hydrogen ions, while weak bases accept only a small amount of hydrogen ions. They have low ionization constants and do not fully dissociate in water, resulting in less acidic or basic solutions compared to strong acids or bases.
What is a sentence with the word pH?
Among aqueous solutions at 25C, those with a pH value below 7.0 are called "acids", those with a pH value of 7.0 are called "neutral", and those with a pH value greater than 7.0 are called "alkalis" or "bases".
