Is sulfuric acid an nonelectrolyte?

No, it is considered an electrolyte because charged ions are present, dissolved in solution (H3O+ and HSO4-). Any acidic aqueous solution is an electrolyte due to the presence of H3O+ in solution (similarly, any basic aqueous solution is also).


What formula can you use to calculate the H3O plus?

In an aqueous solution, the concentration of H3O+ is the same as the concentration of H+. If you know the pH of the solution, then that's equal to 10^(-pH).

What aqueous solutions contains the greatest number of ions?

We can not answer this question with out more " the following".


What gives an aqueous solution of an acid the properties of an acid?

An acid gives its properties to an aqueous solution by making free its (acidical) H+ ions (protons) and donating this to the solvent molecules: water, so H3O+ is formed.


What is the name and formula for the ion formed when an acid is in aqueous solution?

When an acid is placed in water, the hydronium ion (H3O^+) is formed.


Why do hydronium ions form in aqueous acid solutions?

Hydronium ion (H3O+) form in aqueous solution because the water molecule, H2O can accept a proton which is donated from an acid. Thus, the proton (H+) reacts with H2O to produce H3O+, the hydronium ion.


What is the formula of the principal molecular or ionic species present in an aqueous solution of sodium chloride?

Examples are: Na+, Cl-, H+, OH-, [H3O]+.


What is the pH of aqueous solution with the hydronium ion concentration H3O 210-14M?

2 x 10-14 M pH = 13.7


What is pH of a substance?

The pH of a substance tells if it's an acid, neutral, or a base. With all deference to the asker and to the previous answerer, technically substances don't have pH's. Aqueous solutions have pH's, and the pH tells you (on a logarithmic scale) the concentration of H+ (or more precisely H3O+) in that solution. A substance is an acid if it lowers the pH of a solution when it is dissolved. It does this by donating protons (H+'s) to water molecules to create more H3O+. A substance is a base if it increases the pH of a solution by accepting a proton from water molecules to form OH-. H3O+ and OH- are in equilibrium with each other in solution, so the more OH- you create, the less H3O+ will be in solution and the higher the pH. So a better answer to the question is that "The pH of a solution tells you if its an acidic, neutral, or basic solution."
