What ions do Nitric acid form in water?

HNO3 dissociates to give H+ and NO3- ions.


Is nitric acid a positive or negative ion?

Neither. No substance on its own on is an ion. Nitric acid is electrically neutral. When dissolved in water, nitric acid breaks apart, releasing both positive hydronium ions and negative nitrate ions.


What ions will nitric acid form when dissolved in water?

When an acid is added to water it produces hydronium ion along with acid radical.


Stronger formic acid or nitric acid?

Nitric Acid is the Stronger acid. it fully dissociates in water, to form H^+ & NO3^- Formic Acid ( Methanoic Acid) is a weak acid . It only partially dissociates in water. That it does not fully release all the hydrogen ions in the acid .


What ions do acid produce in water?

This ion is H+.


Does an acid or a base produce OH in water?

A base will produce hydroxide ions (OH-).


Why a strong aqueous acid produces many ions but few molecules?

The acid is dissociated in water in ions and doesn't produce molecules.


What are the major ions present in the aqueous HN03?

Aqueous HNO3 (nitric acid) contains H+ ions and NO3- ions.


Acids whose molecules dissociate completely into ions in water solutions are?

strong acids like hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid etc


Why is nitric acid an acid?

An acid should fully or partially emit hydrogen ions when it is in an aqueous medium. They should undergo a neutralization reaction with bases. Since nitric acid fulfills these qualities, it is an acid.


Substance that releases hydrogen ions into an aqueous solution?

An acid, or proton donor, is a compound which produces H+ ions in solution. In an aqueous medium, hydrogen ion combines with a water molecule to form the hydroxonium ions. And there are only several acids that totally dissociate while dissolved in water. In contrast, bases accept hydrogen ions.


What makes HCl an acid?

It can dissociate to produce hydrogen ions when dissolved in water.
