What alkali does bleach contain?
An alkali is a soluble base. Therefore, alkaline solutions are sources of hydroxide ions, OH- . A base is a proton acceptor, so the alkaline solution will neutralise an acid.
Facts about alkalis?
1. An alkali must contain a metal ion 2. Alkali sometimes can neutralize acid, if it is applied with enough force 3. All alkalis are inedible 4. For an alkali to be found in nature, it must not contain radioactivity 5. Uses of alkalis include tanning leather, cleaning, and scrubbing
What Ion is always present in Alkali's?
Hydroxide
Is fluoride an acidic or alkali?
The fluoride ion is alkaline
What are acids alkali and neutral?
Chemicals that release the H+ ion when dissolved in water are acids. Chemicals that release the OH- ion when dissolved in water are alkali (also known as bases) and water is neutral.
What is the charge on an alkali metal ion?
the charge on all alkali metal ions is 1 +
How do you know if an ionic compound between an alkali metal with a nonmetal is done correctly?
Since all alkali metals form a 1+ ion, the number of alkali metal atoms in the formula should be equal to the charge on the negative ion.
Which ion is present in all acid solutions?
Hydrogen
What alkali does bleach contain?
An alkali is a soluble base. Therefore, alkaline solutions are sources of hydroxide ions, OH- . A base is a proton acceptor, so the alkaline solution will neutralise an acid.
How many electrons is the alkali metal losing when it becomes an ion?
Alkali metals lose one electron when it becomes an ion.
What is the ion present in all basic solutions?
the hydrogen ion (H+)

What ion is produced when any alkali is dissolved in water?
This is the hydroxyl ion OH-.
What Ion is always present in Alkali's?
Hydroxide
How do you distinguish an acid from an alkali?
an acid donates the h plus ion and alkali does the opposite
What is the alkali metal with two electrons in its plus 1 ion?
This alkali metal is lithium (Li).
What ion charges do the alkali metals form?
Alkali metals forn cations with the chrage +1.
