Does an acid or a base produce OH in water?
A base will produce hydroxide ions (OH-).
Is OH an acid or a base?
Hydroxides (OH-) indicate bases. For example, sodium hydroxide (NaOH), magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2), and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) are all bases.
Is OH negative a acid or base?
Yes, OH is acidic. That is why it usually has a (-) above it. The single +1 hydrogen doesn't make up for the -2 charge of Oxygen. Making the hydroxyl ion acidic.
Is NaOH plus H2O acid or base?
it is a base, because when NaOH is added to water, it gives off OH- ions.
What does a base remove or accept?
They incr see the [OH]

What does a base form when mixed with water?
Hydroxide ions (OH-) by deprotonating water: [base]- + H2O --> H[base] + OH-
Is OH negative a acid or base?
Yes, OH is acidic. That is why it usually has a (-) above it. The single +1 hydrogen doesn't make up for the -2 charge of Oxygen. Making the hydroxyl ion acidic.
What substance increases the number of OH?
A substance that increases the concentration of hydroxide ions in solution (OH-), is referred to as an Arrhenius base.
What is the name of the base Ca(OH)2?
The name of the base Ca(OH)2 is : calcium hydroxide
Is AlOH3 an acid or a base?
Al(OH)3 is a base (Aluminum hyroxide)
Is NaOH plus H2O acid or base?
it is a base, because when NaOH is added to water, it gives off OH- ions.
What is the base of OH?
O2-
What does a base remove or accept?
They incr see the [OH]
Is BaOH2 a weak base?
Yes. Barium hydroxide, Ba(OH)², undergoes complete disassociation of its ions in water (Ba++ and 2 OH-).
Is H2O plus hso3 equals h2so3 plus oh- and acid or base?
(OH- is a base) (H+ is an acid) Therefore by adding water to HSO3, the OH- ion is produced therefore it is an Arrhenius base.
