When done correctly (i.e. the acid poured into the water), the acid becomes diluted and there should be no other effects other than a slight amount of heat.

Ask us anythingWhich of the following is an example of an Arrhenius acid?

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is an example of an Arrhenius acid. Arrhenius acids are substances that release hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.


What is the pH level of 0.01 moles of hydrochloric acid?

In order to discuss pH the acid has to be dissolved in a measured volume of solvent (in this case probably water). A mole is a measure of amount. So all you have given us is an amount of acid. We also have to know the amount of water you are going to use to make the solution.


Is water a base acid or a neutral?

Acid or Base?According to the Arrhenius Acid-Base theory, the answer is yes and no. If you rearrange the formula to look like HOH, you can see that it contains a hydrogen (indicating an acid), but also contains a hydroxide OH- (indicating a base). This makes sense because water is dead center on the pH scale, right between the acidic side and the basic side.Since we cannot tell by just "looking" at it to determine if its an acid or base, it has to be determined by how it reacts with other acids and bases.This brings us to the Brønsted-Lowry acid-base theory, which tells us that acids are proton (H+ = H3O+) donors and bases are proton acceptors.Generally, water will act as an acid (proton donor) when it reacts with a substance that is less acidic than the water. Conversely, water will act as a base when it reacts with a substance that is more acidic than water.ExamplesHCl + H2O → H3O+ + Cl- Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid and will ionize completely in water. It is more acidic than water, so the water acts as a base and accepts a proton. Note that the hydronium ion (H3O+) can also be written as a proton (H+).NaOH + HOH → Na+ + OH-Sodium hydroxide is a strong base and will ionize completely in water. It is less acidic than water, so the water acts as an acid and donates a proton to form a hydroxide.Water is naturally neutral. Other things added to water may change it towards an acid or a base. Think of acid rain, or a poison water hole in the desert- acid and base.


Is hydrochloric an ionic compound?

Hydrochloric is not an ionic compound, in fact, its full name is hydrochloric acid, which leads us to the conclusion that it is an acid.


How do you find specific gravity of sulphuric acid?

Let us take a some amount of sulphuric acid ie,100ml and also take same amount of water also ie,100ml and weigh them respectively, divide the weight of sulphuric acid from the weight of water,specific gravity will be obtained.

Why is it easier when your adding water to an acid it makes it easier to deal with?

because if you add water to a acid it dilutes it so for example we have to dilute juice or it will make us ill so it will be easier to deal with

What word describes the reaction or an acid with an alkali?

The reaction between an acid an an alkali is called neutralisation in British English, or neutralizationin US English. The products are a salt and water. For example, adding hydrochloric acid to sodium hydroxide produces sodium chloride (table salt) and water.HCl + NaOH --> NaCl + H2OThis example can also be classified as a substitution reaction.
