Best Answer

This is not a simple answer but nevertheless a complete one according to the Bronsted-Lowry acid / base theory.

Acid in water:

H3O+ ions from the acid (as proton donor to a water molecule) and the conjugated base anion (negative) as the left over part of the original acid molecule.

Example: HCl + H2O --> H3O+ + Cl-

Base in water:

Most bases are negative anions from basic salts.

You'll find in solution (some) OH- ions (together with (base)- ions) and the accompanying metal ion (together with some conjugated acid).

Example of acetate base:

NaF + H2O --> Na+ + F- + OH- + HF

Example of an exception, ammonia: NH3(g) + H2O --> NH4+ + OH-

Acids in water solution separate in to hydrogen ions and negative ions,

What is the substance that would not dissolve well in water and why?

A nonpolar substance, such as vegetable oil, would not dissolve well in water because water is a polar molecule and dissolves other polar molecules and many ionic compounds, but not nonpolar substances.


As edta dissolves in water the h will increase to achieve a pH 8.0 would you need to add hcl or naoh?

you have to add naoh because in water only sodium salt of EDTA will dissolve.


What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules ionic molecules nonpolar covalent molecules?

ionic molecules


What household item can dissolve metal?

Well, it depends on what kind of metal you want to dissolve. There's a type of toilet cleaner that has Hydrochloric acid (HCI) which only dissolves: tin, iron, steel, and zinc. So if your looking for a household item that dissolves metal, it would provably be pretty rare to find. This is because stuff that dissolves metals would dissolve you so they are not allowed to put stuff in it because that's the law. So good luck finding an item that can dissolve metal!DON'T BURN YOURSELF!!


Which substances is soluble in water sand sugar oil glass?

Well- sand drops to the bottom, so insoluble. Sugar dissolves in water- warm water dissolves it quicker (coffee, tea), oil sits in layer on the top so does not dissolve. Glass- well luckily glass is insoluble in water so coke and stuff like that can be contained in glass bottles. A purist who measures solubility in atoms or molecules per litre would argue that that all of the insoluble substances dissolve too some extent.

Which is affected most by increasing the temperature of the waterhow fast salt dissolves or how fast sugar dissolves?

it would have to be how fast the salt dissolves because a non polar sugar would not dissolve in water.


How hot water dissolves faster then cold water?

Hot water does not dissolve. Neither does "cold". And, the grammatically correct question would be "Hot does hot water dissolve faster than cooler water."


Why does white sugar dissolve in hot water?

It dissolves in cold water so it would dissolve even more readily in hot. Why does it? That's just one of its properties. It just does.


Does sugar dissolve faster in salt or fresh water?

I would think it would dissolve faster in fresh water, as the fresh water doesn't have anything dissolved in it yet whereas the salt water has dissolved salts and so less room for the sugar molecules. A. yes; sugar does dissolve faster than salt does, in fresh water.

Does instent coffee dissolve in water?

Yes, coffee can dissolve. How else would youu make coffee with a coffee pot? Usually coffee takes a while to dissolve in cold water but it will not take long to dissolve in hot water. Made by Olivia Doherty


What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules inoic molecules nonpolar convalent molecules?

ionic molecules dissolve the most. but some polar covalent molecules also do dissolve in water.


If you have baking soda and dissolve it into water to make a basic solution what features would you expect the solution to have?

What dissolve first in Apple Juice salt or sugar?

It isn't really a matter of what would dissolve first, as it is which dissolves faster. Both would dissolve at the same time, but the sugar would dissolve faster, and in higher quantities. Sugar has a solubility of 211.5 g/100 mL of water where salt only is ~37 g/ 100 mL. Sugar still dissolves faster even though apple juice has 10.8 g of sugar per 100 mL, since the solubility is as high as it is, sugar would dissolve first.

What is the substance that dissolves particles in a solution?

That depends entirely on what the "particles" are made of.In atomic science particle is the general term given to quantum objects. In the context of solution chemistry particles are ions, atoms or molecules. The general rule is that like dissolves like. This means non polar solvents dissolve non-polar particles. Example: petroleum dissolves oil. Polar solvents dissolve ionic or polar particles. Example: Water dissolves sodium chloride and sugar. One is ionic the other is polar.
