The strenghth of an acid is based on the concentration of what ions?
The strength of an acid is based on the concentration of hydrogen ions. Any compound with hydrogen in front of it, such as hydrochloric acid (HCl) is acidic.
What measures the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution?
pH Paper. Litmus paper Hydrogen ions determine how acidic a solution is, the lower the number on the pH scale, the more acidic it is. The color for litmus paper would be a red it it was 1 and blue if it was a base.
Which has the greater concentration of hydrogen ions a substance with a pH of 5 or a substance with a pH of 4?
A pH of 4 is one order of magnitude more acidic that a pH of 5. So. the 4 pH has the greater hydrogen ion concentration.
How does the phosphate buffer system help in maintaining the pH of our body?
The phosphate buffer system consists of two ions: dihydrogen phosphate ions and hydrogen phosphate ions. When the number of hydrogen ions in a body's bloodstream increases (pH drops), hydrogen phosphate ions accept hydrogen ions in order to maintain the equilibrium between the concentration of hydrogen and hydroxide ions within the bloodstream. When the number of hydrogen ions in the bloodstream decreases (pH increases), the resulting dihydrogen phosphate ions release hydrogen ions in order to increase the number of hydrogen ions in the blood.
Low pH means that the hydrogen-ion concentration is?
pH refers to hydrogen parts the lower the hydrogen parts the more acidic a substance is the higher adversely relates to how alkaline or basic a substance is it is scaled from 1-14 i being the most acidic 14 being the most basic when the pH is high, then the concentration of Hydrogen(H+) ions is low
Acidic solutions are those that contain an excess of?
Acidic solutions contain very high concentrations of hydrogen ions. In an acidic solution, then, the concentration of hydrogen ions is greater than the concentration of hydroxide ions.
What type of solution contains a higher hydrogen concentration?
Acid solutions contain higher concentrations of hydrogen ions (hydronium ions).
How does an acidic solution differ from pure water?
Acidic solutions have higher concentrations of hydrogen ions than pure water.
What is the difference between acidic and basic solution working with redox reaction?
An acidic solution contains H+ ions, a basic solution contains OH- ions.
How are acidic solutions different from basic solutions?
basic solutions have more bases in them, molecules that release 0H- ions in the solution. acidic solutions have more acids, molecules that give off H+ ions in the solution
How is the pH scale used to determine if a substance is acidic or basic?
pH tells you the amount of hydrogen ions in a solution. Acidic solutions have a pH less than 7 and more H+ ions. Basic solutions have a value over 7, and contain fewer H+ ions.
An aqueous solution that contains extra hydroxide ions is?
Basic solutions are solutions that have more than a 1E-7 concentration of hydroxide ion. Thus, solutions with "extra" hydroxide ions are basic. On the other hand, solutions with extra hydrogen (hydronium) ions are acidic.
What part of an acids chemical formula is responsible for its acidic properties?
Hydrogen ions give acids their acidic properties.
What solutions have a greater number of hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions?
An acidic solution has a greater number of hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions. However, technically they are hydronium ions (H3O+), not hydrogen ions.
What substances give up hydrogen ions when dissolved in water?
Acids. They dissociate in water/aqueous solutions to from hydrogen ions (and the corresponding anion).
What more acidic of two solutions has?
The more acidic of two acidic solutions has more H+ ions per liter.
Is hydrogen acidic?
No. Hydrogen, H2, is neutral. H+ ions are acidic.
