I think it is a positive charge!!
SINCE CARBONATE & HYDROXIDE'S ARE NEGATIVE ELEMENTS(eg..OH-) WHEN USED WITH ACIDIC (pH<7)ENVIRONMENT (i.e..POSITIVE ELEMENTS( H+))FORMS A NEUTRAL COMPOUND.HENCE USED FOR NEUTRALIZATION.
it must be a salt as NaCl or oxidizing agent as KMnO4
Because the number of positive hydrogen ions produced is equal to the number of negative ions produced, water is neutral. Water is neutral despite the production of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions because the number of positive hydrogen ions produced is equal to the number of negative ions produced, water is neutral.
Technically it is called water because the positive hydrogen ions and the negative hydroxide ions would attract to form a compound with two hydrogen molecules and one oxygen molecule. H2O. This occurs most often in acid-base neutralization reaction where water is a product of the reactions.
They have a negative charge and the formula OH.
No. The hydroxide ion has a negative charge as do all ions ending in -ide, -ite, or -ate.
Hydrogen Ions carry positive charges. Hydroxide Ions carry negative charges.
Negative. Hydroxide atoms also don't exist, they're molecules. They consist of two atoms, one hydrogen atom and one oxygen atom. The charge is -1 on the oxygen.
Hydrogen ions are H+Hydroxide ions are OH-neutrons are written n and have no chargeelectrons are written e- and have a negative charge.So only hydrogen ions, H+, has a positive charge.
The hydroxyl ion is not a positive ion but rather a negative ion. The hydroxyl ion or anion is also known as hydroxide.
when base react with water it decomposes to give hydroxide OH negative and acids react with water to produce hydronium ion H3O positive.......
Positive + Negative = Negative Negative + Negative = Positive Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
The hydroxide ion, OH-, has a negative charge of 1-.
Alkaline are hydroxides of metals like sodium,potassium and a base substance that accepts protons such as hydroxide ion (OH -) - a negative ion. As a negative ion it accepts the positive ions of H+ and all metals with positive ions to neutral and produce salt and water.
Yes, hydroxide (OH-) ions have a negative electrical charge.
The rules for the sign (positive or negative) of the result of a multiplication is the same as division. For multiplication: Positive * Positive --> Positive Positive * Negative --> Negative Negative * Positive --> Negative Negative * Negative --> Positive For division: Positive / Positive --> Positive Positive / Negative --> Negative Negative / Positive --> Negative Negative / Negative --> Positive
