What type of ion do acids form in solution?
Not simple to answer - acidic solutions contain more hydrogen ions that hydroxide ions, but there are very many ions that can cause hydrogen ions to be in excess - for instance the hydrogen-sulphate ion (from an acid salt such as sodium hydrogen-sulphate) when added to water has a tendancy to split into hydrogen and sulphate ions, so making the solution acidic. Not all acid salts are acid in soultion - for instance sodium hydrogen-carbonate is alkaline. When dissolved in water, the hydrogen-carbonate ion tends to react with hydrogen ions in the water to form molecular carbonic acid - removing hydrogen ions from the water and hence making it alkaline. Acid salts of strong acids, such as sulphuric, hydrochloric, nitric, are acidic in solution. Acid salts of weak acids, such as carbonic, sulphurous, are alkaline in solution. Just a few simple examples.
What substance generates h when dissolved in water?
An acid releases H+ ions in water.
What does the pH scale measure the concentration of?
The pH scale is a Science indicator, Not a Mathmatical one :-)
Ion which combines with hydrogen ions to give water?
I believe it is hydroxide(OH-)ions H+ + OH- -->H2O
How are the concentrations of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions related in an aqueous solution.?
If their concentrations are multiplied with one other the product equals the water constant Kw:a kind of 'equilibrium constant' of the 'water equilibrium' reactions and vice verse: *)[H+]*[OH-] = Kw = 1.0*10-14or in negative log10 value's: (analogs of pH = -log[H+] ) pH + pOH = pKw = 14.0*) This equilibrium state is reached very quickly, so in any watery solution this is always a constant value. [H+] and [OH-] are always depending on each other: If you add acid (H+) then H+ goes up AND SO OH- goes down!H+ + OH- H2O
Bases are solutions which contain an excess of what?
H+ ions
What liquids can you use to change the color of litmus paper?
Any acid or base should do the trick.Any compound with excess hydrogen ions (H+) or excess hydroxide ions (OH-). Also, any compound that absorbs hydrogen ions (H+) or hydroxide ions (OH-).
Does an acidic solution have an excess of hydrogen ions?
Yes, an acidic solution has an excess of hydrogen ions (H+). This is because acids donate protons (H+) in aqueous solutions, resulting in a higher concentration of hydrogen ions compared to hydroxide ions (OH-) which are found in basic solutions.
What is a base in science?
A base is any solute that removes hydrogen ions (H+) from solution (raising the pH), or it can be called a proton acceptor. Excess hydroxide ions (OH-) in body fluids cause alkalosis.
What positive ions is produced in excess when acids are dissolved in water?
Hydronium(H3O+) ions, which are formed when Hydrogen(H+) ions combine with water molecules.
Acidic solutions are those that contain an excess of?
H+ ions. The presence of H+ ions lowers the pH of the solution, making it acidic.
If a substance dissociates and forms an excess of h positive ions when dissolved in watr it is referred to as?
acid
When water dissociates there is an excess H plus ions which s called?
Due to the ionic strength..
What happens in a buffer when the level of H ions in solution increases?
When the level of H+ ions in solution increases, a buffer will help to minimize the change in pH by reacting with the excess H+ ions. In an acidic buffer, the conjugate base will react with the additional H+ ions to form the weak acid component. In a basic buffer, the weak acid component will react with the extra H+ ions to form the conjugate base and restore equilibrium.
What do you call these substances in biological fluids that can resist changes in pH by accepting h ions when they are in excess and donating h when they are depleted?
buffer solution
Which factor most likely has the greatest effect on number of molecules mitochondria can produce?
The amount of energy the flow H+ ions have EDIT: The speed of the H+ ions
What ions are formed when acid is in water?
When an acid is dissolved in water, it donates hydrogen ions (H+) to the solution, increasing the concentration of H+ ions. This results in the formation of an excess of H+ ions, making the solution acidic. The other ion formed depends on the type of acid; for example, if hydrochloric acid is dissolved in water, it forms chloride ions (Cl^-).
