What else can I help you with?
Is limestone a base?
Yes, limestone or calcium carbonate is a base when it is dissolved in water. Water itself can act as either an acid or a base.
What react with acids to give a salt and water?
Bases react with acids to form a salt and water through a chemical reaction called neutralization. During this process, the hydrogen ions (H+) from the acid react with the hydroxide ions (OH-) from the base to form water, while the remaining ions combine to form a salt.
A substance that does not form hydroxide ions in a water solution is a base?
This statement is not accurate. A base is defined as a substance that can accept a proton (H+) from water, forming hydroxide ions (OH-) in a solution. A substance that does not form hydroxide ions in water is not a base.
When an acid reacts with a base what compounds are formed?
salt & water
Occurs at the cloud base where water vapor begins condensing?
This is the dew point temperature, where the air becomes saturated with moisture and water vapor starts to condense into liquid water or fog at the cloud base.
Why is distilled water a base?
Distilled water is not a base.
Do a base react with water to form a hydroxyde?
A base doesn't react with water; the base may be soluble in water.
What do you call a base that dissolves in water?
A base that dissolves in water is called a soluble base or aqueous base.
What is the base of H3O plus is water or not?
The conjugate base for the hydronium ion (H3O+) is indeed water
A reaction of an acid and base will produce water and what?
An acid and a base react to form water and a salt
Explains water's role in acid-base reactions?
water is responsible for ionization of acid and base, without water the terms acid and base are meaningless.
What does a base form when mixed with water?
Hydroxide ions (OH-) by deprotonating water: [base]- + H2O --> H[base] + OH-
How does a base affect the pH of water?
A base or alkali affects the pH water by increasing it.
Is water in acid or base?
Water is neutral, with a pH of 7. It is not an acid or a base.
What is formed when an acid and a base is mixed?
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
When preparing base solution Is base added into water or water added into base?
Base should be added slowly into water, while stirring continuously. This helps prevent splashing or sudden release of heat, which could be hazardous. Never add water into base as it can cause a violent reaction.
Is water a base?
Water is neither an acid nor a base; it can act as both. Water can act as a base by accepting a proton to form a hydronium ion.
