An acid produces H+ ions when they are put in water. A base produces OH- ions when they are put in water.

Which acid-base chemical reaction is irreversible?

The acid-base chemical reaction that is irreversible is the reaction between a strong acid and a strong base.


What is the difference between a strong acid and a strong base.?

A strong acids dissociates completely in water to produce hydronium (H3O+) ions A strong base dissociates completely in water to produce hydroxide (OH-) ions


Explain how the relationship between the strengths of an acid and its conjugate base and of a base and its conjugated acid?

If acid is strong then its conjugate base must be weak, if conjugate base is strong it again accept the H+ ions so acid can neither be strong, similarly if base is strong its conjugate acid must be weak.


What is the difference between strong acid and strong base?

A strong base will, in water, fullyhydrolyse to give (react into) hydroxide (OH-) ions.A weak acid will, in water, partially hydrolyse to give (react into) hydronium(H3O+, or H+) ions.The strong/weak difference is in bold, the base/acid difference is itallicalized.


What is the balanced chemical equation for a weak base-strong acid titration?

In a weak base-strong acid titration, the balanced chemical equation is: Base (B) Acid (H) Conjugate Acid (BH) This equation represents the reaction between the weak base (B) and the strong acid (H), resulting in the formation of the conjugate acid (BH).


What is formed when a strong acid with a strong base?

A salt is formed when a strong acid reacts with a strong base.


What are the products of the simplest type of a acid base reaction?

The products of the simplest type of acid-base reaction, typically between a strong acid and a strong base, are water and a salt. The acid donates a proton (H+) to the base, forming water, and the remaining ions of the acid and base combine to form a salt.


The difference between a weak and a strong acid involves the acid's ability to?

Depends On their PH Level. A PH Scale will tell you the strength of an acid- OR base. The strength depends on how much it canw wear materials and how diluted it is.


Is ephedrine sulfate a salt of weak base and strong acid?

Ephedrine sulfate will act as a weak acid in solution because yes it is the salt of a weak base (ephedrine) and a strong acid (sulfuric acid)


Is potassium bromide an acid or a base?

KBr is a byproduct of the neutralization of an acid and a base. So in simple terms it's neither; it's a neutral salt.


What is the pH difference between a strong acid and a weak acid n the pH scale?

Usually a strong acid will produce a lower pH, but not always. pH is not a measure of the strength of an acid (or base) but the acidity of a solution, which is dependent on both the strength of the acid or base and its concentration in the solution.
