What is it called when all of the molecules of an acid break apart in water?
This is a strong acid.
What kind of solution do all the molecules of an acid break apart in water?
When an acid dissolves in water, the molecules of the acid break apart into ions. Specifically, the acid molecules donate protons (H+ ions) to the water molecules, resulting in the formation of hydronium ions (H3O+) and negatively charged ions from the acid. This process is called ionization or dissociation.
What happens to most of the molecules of a strong acid when the acid is mixed with water?
the molecules are donated to water molecules. if a little of the acid remains after it is added to water, then it is a strong acid. if a lot remains, then it is a weak acid. same goes for bases.
Why do acids or bases dissociate?
polar water molecules pull apart the acid or base by pulling on the charged ions.
When a n acid dissolves in water what happens?
When an acid dissolves in water, it ionizes, meaning it breaks apart into ions. The hydrogen ions (H+) from the acid combine with water molecules to form hydronium ions (H3O+). This results in an increase in the concentration of hydronium ions in the solution, making it acidic.

In what kind of solution do all the molecules of an acid break apart in water?
strong acid

What happens when an Acid or base molecules break apart when they come in contact?
They form more stable compounds which are salt and water along with release of energy
When an acid or base dissolves in water what is the dependent on the number of molecules that break apart?
You think probable to dissociation constant.
What a strong acid dissolves in waterhow many molecules break apart?
All particles of a strong acid are ionized (protolysis) when dissolving in more water (dilute solutions)
What does it mean if an acid or base is ''weak''?
it means that the acid or the base doesn't completely dissociate when placed in water. Let's take a weak acid. HNO2. When placed in water, not all of the HNO2 molecules will break apart. The ions in the solution will be H+, NO2-, and HNO2. Because there are less ions in the solution, the acid/base is weak. Not all of the HNO2 will break apart! A strong acid will completely dissociate. That means if you place HCl in water, the ions will be H+, and Cl-, NO HCl. This is because once they break apart, the chlorine will stay apart from the hydrogen. This leaves many ions in the solution, making the acid/base strong.
What cause an acid or base to dissociate?
The polar water molecules pull apart the ions of the acid or base

How does acid rain affect buildings?
it makes them weak and they break apart
How do sediment layers deposit?
the layers deposit is because the acid rain break them apart
