1} A base if vdissolved in water will show the presence of OH- ion

2}a base if it is an oxide of a metal will show the presence of an O-- ion in fused state

3} if we are studying bases like the soda amide which is used in organic reactions then the ion it will form when dissolved in water will be again OH- ion

NaNH2 +H2O------->NaOH+NH3, NaOH------>Na+ + OH-

4} NH3 is also a base but it has an e- pair on N which it donates to H+ when dissolved

in water and forms NH4+ ion

the H+ ion will be present in weakly dissociated water as water generally contains some salts in the natural state and that accounts for the slight dissociation of water

What are acid base and salts?

Acids contain the ion H+ or (-COOH)-. Bases contain the ion OH-. Salts are the products of an acid/base reaction; they contain the cation from the base and the anion from the acid.


What type of ionic compound does the positive ion of a base and the negative ion of an acid combine to form?

When the positive ion of a base combines with the negative ion of an acid, they form a salt compound. The positive ion from the base combines with the negative ion from the acid through an ionic bond to create a neutral compound known as a salt.


Which ions or chemicals make a substance base?

Arrhenius bases will always contain a hydroxide ion (OH-).


Is MgBr a base?

MgBr is not a base, but rather a salt. It is composed of magnesium ion (Mg2+) and bromide ion (Br-). Bases typically contain hydroxide ions (OH-) and can accept protons to form water.


Can ammonia NH3 be classified as a base even though it does not contain the hydroxide ion OH Why or Why not?

Yes, ammonia can be classified as a base because it behaves as a proton acceptor, forming ammonium ion (NH4+) by accepting a proton (H+). While it does not contain the hydroxide ion like strong bases do, it still has the ability to accept protons and undergoes the same characteristic reactions as bases.


What is the base in a reaction?

The base in a chemical reaction is the species that either (a) accepts a proton, (b) produces an OH- ion, or (c) is an electron donor.


How can bicarbonate be a weak base if it doesn't contain hydroxide ion?

The bicarbonate ion is a base because it's a proton acceptor, that being one of the definitions of a base.
