What happens to the hydroxide ion concentration in water when a base is added?

No. A base decreases the amount of hydronium, and increases the amount of hydroxide.


When NaH is added to water the hydroxide concentration increases what can you include about NaOH?

The premise of this question is incorrect. When NaOH is added to water the hydroxide concentration increases. NaOH is a base. If a substance decreases hydroxide concentration it would be an acid.


What substance increases the number of OH?

A substance that increases the concentration of hydroxide ions in solution (OH-), is referred to as an Arrhenius base.


When NaOH is added to water the hydroxide concentrate increases. What can you conclude about NaOH?

it is a base


What happens when a base dissolve?

It increases the concentration of OH - in a solution.


Which ion increases in concentration when a strong base is added to water?

As a general rule of thumb, for acid solutions [H+] > [OH-], for basic solutions [H+] < [OH-], and for neutral solutions or for pure water [H+] = [OH-] This is the answer but can someone explain it to me?


What is produced when a base dissolves in water?

A solution of the base in water. Like with acids you would get partial dissociation however. eg for NaOH, it would mostly split up into Na+ and OH-.


What has a high concentration of hydroxide ions?

Any solution that has a pH level higher then seven is going to contain the higher concentrations of hydroxide. The gastric acid located in the stomach has very high concentrations of hydroxide.


Which if the following is an example of an Arrhenius base?

An Arrhenius base produces OH- ions.


When a strong base is dissolved in water which type of ions is present in high concentration?

When a strong base is dissolved in water , OH ion concentration will be high.


Why does the molar conductivity of weak acid decrease as the concentration increases?

For a weak acid (or base), as the concentration increases, the % ionization/dissociation decreases. This leads to fewer ions in solution, and hence the molar conductivity decreases.


Are hydronium ions contributed to a solution by a base or acid?

Acids have more hydronium than hydroxide. Bases are the reverse of that.
