halogen acids are polar in nature and water is also polar . when halogen acids are added in water than hydrogen is converted into hydrogen ion and hydronium ions are solvated in water

∙ 12y agoAll the halogen acids in gaseous state are essentially covalent but in the aqeous solution they ionize to give the solvated hydronium ion and hence act as acids.

What is formed when carbonic acid is ionized?
Carbonic acid can lose 2 protons (hydrogen ions). After losing the first, a hydrogen ion and a bicarbonate (hydrogen carbonate) ion are produced. When the bicarbonate ion is further ionized, another hydrogen ion as well as a carbonate ion are produced.
What will form electrolyte solutions in water when ionized?
Any ionized chemical will cause water to become electrically conductive. In general, salts are the best example.
Why can a buffer only buffer against a small amounts of acid or base?
A strong acid and a strong base will react together to produce a neutral salt. E.g., HCl (strong acid) and NaOH (strong base) will react together to form H20 and NaCl (salt). The salt is neutral (if you dump table salt into water, the solution will be neutral) this is because the Na+ and Cl- are perfectly happy being charged atoms. If you have something that doesn't really like to be ionized, which is a weak acid or base (for example acetic acid, (vinegar) which is only 1.1% ionized (charged) in a water solution) will only be ionized if something forces it to be ionized, i.e., a strong acid or base. When there is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate salt (or weak base and its conjugate salt) a buffer is formed. This is due to the fact that if you add some strong acid it will simply react with the conjugate salt, and if you add some strong base it will react with the weak acid. This is how they "buffer solutions" by keeping things pretty balanced. So to answer your question, a buffer must contain something that is only weakly reactive, and can react further when the need is present. A strong acid/base will totally react, so there is nothing left over to do any buffering.
What sort of solution is formed when hydroxide dissolves in water?
Hydrogen halides are combinations of hydrogen and a halogen like fluorine, chlorine and the like. The combination is an acid, and the solution formed with water is an acid or acidic solution. You'd get HF, which is hydrofluoric acid, an extremely powerful acid. HCl is hydrochloric acid, and we know that it's very strong as well. You'll get ionic acidic solutions by combining hydrogen and a halide.
How do you know if an amino is acidic?
If they are negatively charged above pH 3. These amino acids are aspartic acid and glutamic acid. In their ionized state, they are often referred to as aspartate and glutamate.
Is ionized water base or acid?
it is an acid
How the halogen acids are ionized in water?
halogen acids are polar in nature and water is also polar . when halogen acids are added in water than hydrogen is converted into hydrogen ion and hydronium ions are solvated in water
What is Lactic acid ionized into?
lactic acid, when ionized becomes lactate and hydronium ion.
What happens when you mix H2O and acetic acid?
Acetic acid simply becomes ionized in water (about 5% dissociation).
Which is the most volatile halogen acid?
HCl is the most volatile halogen acid.
Can you substitute muratic acid for battery acid?
You do not use muratic acid with car batteries. You use sulfuric acid. You use about 35% Sulfuric acid and 65% Distilled (de-ionized) water
When water is ionized it can act as either an acid or a base.?
ONLY GOD KNOWS. lol
Deffrence between halogen acid and hydrogen halide?
not sure but i think that a halogen acid is an acid like HCl and an acid halide is like 1-chloro ethanoic acid
What is the pH of element oxides in water in group 7?
Halogen oxides are acid forming, most of which are strong
When water is ionized it can act as either an acid or a base true or false?
Pure water can't be ionized. To be ionized, water must contain minerals. The dissolved minerals conduct electricity, which ionizes the water: Water with a net-negative ionic charge will be an alkaline Water with a net-positive ionic charge will be an acidic In nature, the minerals dissolved in the water will have an influence on whether it is acidic or alkaline. The water's movement through ferrous rock formations (which are magnetic) will cause it to become ionized.
You want all the name of weak acid and strong acid?
There are 7 aqueous strong acids (100% ionized in water) but there are thousands of weak acids. The 6 common monoprotic stong acids are hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, nitric, chloric, and perchloric acids. The only strong diprotic acid is sulfuric acid, where the first H is 100% ionized and the second H is almost 100% ionized in water. Reference: Brown and Lemay Chemistry text, and I taught advanced HS Chem for 10 years.
Is a strong acid complete or partial?
A strong acid is completely ionized / dissociated.
