Acids are "H+ donors"; they posses hydrogen ions that (in an aqueous solution) covalently bond with hydroxide ions (from a base in an aqueous solution) to form water. Some examples are:
H2S, hydrosulphuric acid
HF, hydrofluoric acid
HPO4, phosphoric acid
HCl, hydrochloric acid
**
An Alkali, as you are referring to, is a base. They possess hydroxide ions that (in an aqueous solution) covalently bond with hydrogen ions (from an acid in an aqueous solution) to form water. A few examples:
NH4OH, ammonium hydroxide
NaOH, sodium hydroxide
Mg(OH)2, magnesium hydroxide
**
There are a limitless amount of alkali and acid possibilities; you just need to be able to name and balance the one you want correctly.
What else can I help you with?
Are alkalis and acids dangerous?
Alkalis and acids can be dangerous if handled improperly. They can cause burns, irritation, and other harmful effects if they come into contact with skin, eyes, or other tissues. It is important to use appropriate precautions when working with alkalis and acids to prevent accidents and injuries.
Do acids counteract alkalis?
Yes, acids neutralize alkalis and inverse.
Household acids and alkalis?
households acids and alkalis is formic acid and syitric acid
Does toothpaste contain acids or alkalis?
Most toothpastes contain alkalis , however some can contain acids.
Can alkalis be transported by road?
Yes alkalis and acids can be transported by road.
Do acids react with alkalis in a combustion reaction?
No, acids and alkalis do not react in a combustion reaction. Combustion reactions involve a substance reacting with oxygen to produce heat and light. Acids and alkalis typically do not react in this way.
Are acids and alkali dangerous and why?
On contact to skin and other body tissue many acids and alkalis can cause chemical burns and even burn through flesh. In a ddition to this, many are also toxic.
What acids or alkalis are in indegestion?
booya
Is an vinegar a acids or an alkalis?
Acid
Are alkalis stronger than acids?
Alkalis are typically stronger than acids in terms of their ability to neutralize acids. This is because alkalis dissociate in water to release hydroxide ions, which can accept protons from acids to form water. Acids, on the other hand, release hydrogen ions that can react with hydroxide ions.
Are acids and alkalis the same?
No, acids and alkalis are not the same. Acids are compounds that release hydrogen ions when dissolved in water, whereas alkalis are compounds that release hydroxide ions when dissolved in water. Acids have a pH less than 7, while alkalis have a pH greater than 7.
How can you tell how strong acids and alkalis are using the pH scale?
Acids have a pH under 7, alkalis have a pH bigger than 7.
