How does acid strength affect electrical conductivity?
The strength of an acid depends of the number of hydrogen ions in solution- the stronger the acid the more hydrogen ions there are in solution. Hydrogen ions in solution carry current, therefore the more hydrogen ions in the solution the more current there will be carried through solution.
The terms base and alkaline refer to solutions that?
the more hydroxide ions releases, the more basic the solution becomes. and the solution has more hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions.
Why does the most dilute solution deposit more copper in electrolysis?
An electrolysis process is based upon movement and flow of ions. More is the solution dilute, more is the movement of ions and more is the conductance of solution. Thus, when the solution is dilute more copper ions flow to the electrode and get deposited there
Is a substance with equal numbers of H ions of OH - ions an alkaline solution?
No. If the number of H+ and OH- ions are equal then the solution is neutral. A solution is considered alkaline if it has more OH- ions than H+ ions.
Is a basic solution expected to contain more hydrogen ions than hydroxyl ions?
More hydroxil ions.

If a solution is alkaline or a base what ions does it have more of?
it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions

When pH is greater than 7 what is it called?
Anything with a pH greater than 7 is called a base. This is because pH measures the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution. Because a base usually has an ending of -OH (or hydroxide), there are more OH ions in solution than hydrogen ions.

A solution with a pH of 5 has how many more protons in it than a solution with a pH of 7?
It depends on what the solution is. What affects the pH is the element. If there are more H+ ions in the solution you're referring to, the solution will be more acidic (lower pH). If there are more (OH)- ions in the solution, the solution will be more basic (higher pH).
What solution contains more hydroxide ions than it does hydrogen ions?
acidic
How do you draw a particle diagram of acid and alkali?
Choose a representation for H+ ions and OH- ions. Choose a representation of something to bond ions to. In the acidic solution there will be more H+ ions not bonded. In the basic solution, more OH- ions will be not bonded.
Why is a acid called a acid?
They are acidic due to hydrogen ions. The more hydrogen ions converted from the original solution there are the more acidic it will be. For example Hydrochloric Acid converts more hydrogen ions from (hydrogen + water + chloride) solution than citric acid does from its respective solution...
