Which acid does not contain H ion?

All acids contain H+ but stronger acids contain more than weaker acids. Alkalis contain OH-. In stronger alkalis there is more OH- and in weaker, there is less. This is why pH7 is neutral - the H+ and the OH- form H2O which is a neutral substance.


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.


Do acids counteract alkalis?

Yes, acids neutralize alkalis and inverse.


What is the difference between and acid and an alkali?

What is the difference between acids and alkalis for kids?

How can you tell how strong acids and alkalis are?

Look it up in a table of acid constants (proteolytic equilibrium constants) or Ka-table. weak: CH3COOH, acetic acid Ka=1.7*10-5 , very weak: HCN, Hydrogen cyanide Ka = 4.9*10-10 strong: HCl, Hydrogen chloride Ka >> 1.0


What kind of chemicals are acids and alkalis?

Acids are substances that release hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water, while alkalis release hydroxide ions (OH-). Acids typically have a pH less than 7 and are sour-tasting, while alkalis have a pH greater than 7 and are bitter-tasting. Examples of acids include hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, while examples of alkalis include sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide.
