Which ion is furnished by acids in of agueous solution?

Acids in aqueous solution furnish hydrogen ions (H+). This is why acids are often referred to as proton donors, as they donate H+ ions to the solution.

Is it true that in strong acids most of the molecules break up into ions in the solution?

Yes, that is true. Strong acids ionize, in a aqueous solution. It is the released hydrogen ions that make them acids.


Why do solution containing acids conduct an electric current?

To conduct an electrical current, you need movable charges. In such solutions, those are available in the form of ions.


What does the PH solution of a acid and base depend on?

The pH of a solution containing an acid or base depends on the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution. For acids, the higher the concentration of hydrogen ions, the lower the pH. For bases, the higher the concentration of hydroxide ions (or lower concentration of hydrogen ions), the higher the pH.


What kind ions separate from acids in solution?

hydrogen ions and anions.


What happens to the pH of a solution when it is neutralised?

Neutralization A neutral pH of 7 may mean that you are dealing with distilled water containing no acids and bases. In this case, the amount of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions will be equivalent because they will both be due to the ionization of water. However, a neutral pH can also be achieved in a solution containing acids and bases as long as the acids and bases have neutralized each other, meaning that the acids have donated as many hydrogen ions as have been accepted by the bases.
