Want this question answered?
Adding NaOH will increase the pH of water, because NaOH is a base. At 25°C: pH < 7 is an acidic solution pH = 7 is a neutral solution pH > 7 is a basic solution
A neutral solution can contain ions of hydrogen, hydroxide, and the cation and anion of any neutral salt. There are equal numbers of hydrogen and hydroxide ions, and also an equal (but usually different) number of the other pair of ions.
salt ions and water and an equal amount of hydrogen and hydroxide ions.
YES, because of equal amount of hydrogen and hydroxide ions in the solution.
pure water is neutral with a pH of 7
In an acidic solution, the relative concentration of hydronium ions will always be higher than hydroxide ions. This means that the relatively concentration of hydroxide ions will always be lower than hydronium ions in an acidic solution. The reason for this is that in a neutral solution, the concentration of both hydronium ions and hydroxides ions are equal (both are 10-7). By making the concentration of hydronium ions greater than the concentration of hydroxide ions, the solution becomes acidic.
A neutral solution has an equal number or concentration of hydrogen and hydroxide ions. A neutral solution is one that has a pH of 7.0. Pure water is a neutral solution.
No. pH is the negative logarithm of the concentration of the hydronium ion. Equal numbers of hydronium ions and hydroxyl ions occurrs only when a solution is neutral.
The concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions are equal
The concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions are equal
The product of hydronium and hydroxide is a constant Kw equal to 1.00*10-14 at 25°C. Therefore, as one increases, the other decreases.
The pH of a solution is related directly to its concentrations of hydronium ions(H3O^+) and hydroxide ions(OH-). Acidic solutions have more hydronium ions than hydroxide ions. Neutral solutions have equal numbers of the 2 ions. Basic solutions have more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.
At pH 7, the concentration of hydroxide and hydrogen (hydronium) ions is equal; both concentrations are equal to 10-7 mol/L.
The hydroxide ion concentration equals the hydronium ion concentration at a (neutral) pH of 7
The concentration of hydronium (or hydrogen) ions in solution is found by raising to to the negative pH. In this case, we know that the pH is 7 because it is neutral, so we would say...[H3O+] = 10-pH[H3O+] = 10-7[H3O+] = 1.0 x 10-7 mol/LNeutral solutions have equal concentrations of H3O+ and OH-, so the hydroxide concentration is the same as the hydronium concentration: 1.0 x 10-7 mol/L.Hope this helps:)
A solution that contains equal concentrations of hydrogen and hydroxide ions is neutral. Water is the prime example.
It produces a neutral salt along with water
