How do the concentrations of hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion determine whether a solution is acidic basic or neutral.?
acids are substances that release their hydrogen ion(s) while bases grab hydrogen ions to themselves. SO, adding acids will increase the H+ concentration while adding bases will decrease the H+ concetration of the solution. This would be considered a direct effect.
Weak acids are poor conductors of?
Poor compared to what? Compared to a strong acid, yes, as the concentration of ions determines the conductivity. However a weak acid will conduct better than an insulator like polythene.
How do acids differ from basis?
Acids have a pH level below 7 while bases have a pH above 7. The chemical difference between acids and bases in the hydrogen ion concentration[H+]. Acids have a higher concentration of hydrogen ions while bases have a higher hydroxide ion concentration[OH-]
What do strong acids produce more than weak acids at the same concentration?
electricty
Why might fatty acids amino acids and nucleic acids increase the hydrogen ions concentration of a solution?
they have more ions than oter acids
How can you distinguish strong and weak acids?
with a conductivity test!
Which kind of compound increases the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution?
Acids increase the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution.

What has the author Leslie Denis Smith written?
Leslie Denis Smith has written: 'Conductivity, temperature coefficients of conductivity, dissociation and constants of certain organic acids, between zero and sixty-five degrees ..' -- subject(s): Conductivity of Electrolytes, Dissociation, Organic acids

Poor compared to what? Compared to a strong acid, yes, as the concentration of ions determines the conductivity. However a weak acid will conduct better than an insulator like polythene.
Why are concentrated acidsmore hazardous than dilute acids?
Acids can dissolve substances through a chemical reaction. Increasing the concentration of an acid increases the rate at which it can dissolve other substances, making it more dangerous if touched. Acids can be weakened by diluting them with water, decreasing the potency of the acid and making it safer.
What is the term that describes acids which give a low concentration of hydronium ions?
Such acids are considered weak acids, such as organic acids.

The scientist who discovered the essential nature of acids through solution conductivity studies is?
Arrhenius

What does the behavior of acids and base depend on?
The behavior of acids and bases depends on their strength or concentration.
