What else can I help you with?
A base is a substance that forms hydrogen ions in a water solution?
This substance is an acid.
What is an acid and base?
An acid base indicator is a substance that changes colour due the PH of the medium in which it is dissolved.
A substance that combines with hydrogen ions?
A substance that combines with hydrogen ions is called a base. Bases accept protons (hydrogen ions) to form water molecules. This process is the basis of the Brønsted-Lowry definition of bases.
What is meant by the neutralization of an acid with a base?
An acid base neutralization is not a substance as stated before but a reaction between acid molecules (or the protons from it) and a base compound (or basic ion in it). The products formed are normally a salt and water.Example:HCl + NaOH --> NaCl + H2O
Substance that causes a solution to resist changes in pH?
A buffer is a substance that helps a solution resist changes in pH by neutralizing added acids or bases. Buffers typically consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid, allowing them to maintain the pH of a solution within a certain range.
A substance that forms hydroxide ions?
If a substance has more hydrogen ions than hydroxyl ions it causes the substance to be acidic on the pH scale, and vice versa. Hydrogen ions have a positive charge while hydroxyl has an negative.
A substance that releases hydrogen ions in water is a base yes or no?
Electrolytes that release ions that combine with hydrogen atoms are called bases.
What kind of reaction is an acid plus a base?
An acid plus a base will yield a salt and water. In textbooks this is often written as: HA + BOH yields AB + HOH The above means an acid with its hydronium ion added to a base with its hydroxyl group will yield a salt composed of the acid and the base plus water (hydrogen plus hydroxyl is HOH or H2O).
What is the union of the hydrogen ions of an acid with the hydroxyl ions of a base forming water called?
This process is called neutralization.
Is hydrogen basic or acidic?
Elemental hydrogen gas, H2, is neutral. Although hydrogen is the main factor in determining if a substance is a base or an acid; Acids have H+ ions and depending on how many there are determines th strength of them. Bases on the other hand base them selves around OH-(hydroxyl) ions and once again the more of these ions present the stronger the substance basicity is.
Is hydrogen oxide an acid or a base?
Neither, it is water a neutral substance.
What is a base and what is an example of it?
a substance that can neutralize the acid by reacting with hydrogen ions.
What is a substance that releases hydroxyl ions in a water?
A substance that releases hydroxyl ions in water is a base. Bases are substances which in water, becomes slippery, has a bitter taste, changes indicator color, forms salts with acids and promotes base catalysis. Alkaline earth materials is an example of a base.
What is a substance that releases hydroxyl ions when dissolved in water?
This substance is a base.
What is the substance that produces hydroxyl ions when dissolved in water is a?
The substance that produces hydroxyl ions when dissolved in water is a base. Bases are substances that release hydroxide ions (OH-) in water, which can react with hydrogen ions (H+) to form water (H2O). Examples of bases include sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium hydroxide (KOH).
What is a substance that yields a cation plus the hydroxyl ion in water?
This substance is a base.
What is the difference between an acid, a base, and a salt?
An acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions, a base is a substance that accepts hydrogen ions, and a salt is a compound formed from the reaction between an acid and a base. Acids have a pH less than 7, bases have a pH greater than 7, and salts are typically neutral.
