Yes it is a base, Li in water gives this reaction: 2 Li(s) + 2 H2O -> 2 LiOH(aq) + H2(g)

Will a Strong acid and weak base will produce a neutral salt?

No, a strong acid and a weak base will not produce a neutral salt. Instead, the resulting salt will be acidic because the anion from the weak base does not fully neutralize the strong acid. This typically leads to a solution that is acidic when the salt is dissolved in water.


Is Dimethylamine strong acid?

Dimethylamine is actually a weak base, not a strong acid. It is a derivative of ammonia and can accept protons in solution, making it a base.


What kind of base and acid is carbon dioxide weak or strong?

Dissolved carbon dioxide in water (carbonic acid) is weak acid.


Will mixing equal quantities of 1m soulutions of weak acid and strong base give and acidic basic or neutral solution?

Mixing equal quantities of 1 M solutions of a weak acid and a strong base will typically result in a basic solution. This is because the strong base will completely dissociate and neutralize some of the weak acid, but not all of it, leaving an excess of base in the solution. The weak acid does not fully dissociate, so there is not enough acid to completely neutralize the strong base. Consequently, the resulting solution will be basic.


Why a solution of FeSO4 is acidic?

1.FeSO4 dissociation in water produces more H ions which is acidic. 2.FeSO4 is formed by strong acid and weak base. 3.Sulfuric acid is strong acid and ferric hydroxide is weak base. 4.As the strong acid and weak base combines it results in the formation of acidic salt. H2SO4+Fe(OH)2 gives FeSO4+2H2O

Is the conjugate of a strong base is a weak acid?

NaHCO3 is a weak base, with a conjugate acid of H2CO3+.


Explain how the relationship between the strengths of an acid and its conjugate base and of a base and its conjugated acid?

If acid is strong then its conjugate base must be weak, if conjugate base is strong it again accept the H+ ions so acid can neither be strong, similarly if base is strong its conjugate acid must be weak.


Is NH4NO3 a strong acid and a weak base?

It is the product of a strong acid and a weak base, but is itself a mildly acidic salt.


Will the solution at the end point of an acidbase titration be acidic neutral or alkaline if it is a weak acid and strong base?

The solution at the endpoint of an acid-base titration involving a weak acid and a strong base will be alkaline. This is because the weak acid will have been neutralized by the strong base, resulting in excess hydroxide ions in the solution causing it to be alkaline.


Which statement always accurately describes acids and bases a the conjugate base of a weak acid is a strong base b the conjugate acid of a weak base is a weak acid c strong acids and st?

b) The conjugate acid of a weak base is a weak acid. When a base accepts a proton to form its conjugate acid, it tends to be a weak acid because it does not easily donate a proton back. This relationship is governed by the principles of acid-base equilibrium.


Is C2H3O2 an strong or weak acid or base?

CH3COOH is a acid. It is a weak acid.


Which pair consists of a weak acid and a strong base?

Acetic acid (CH3COOH) is a weak acid and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a strong base.


What happens when a weak acid and a strong base combine?

When a weak acid and a strong base combine, the resulting solution will be basic because the strong base will completely neutralize the weak acid. The pH of the solution will be higher than 7.


Is CoCO3a strong acid or a weak acid or a weak base or a strong base?

CoCO3 (Cobalt II carbonate) would be a weak base.


Is CH3NH3 a strong acid or base?

NH3 is a weak base, but H2CO3 ( carbonic acid ) is not a strong acid. It is a weak acid.


Is C2H4O2 weak or strong?

it is a non electrolyte C2H5OH is not a base, its an alcohol, ETHYL ALCOHOL so its just an alcohol


How can a weak acid be neutralized effectively?

A weak acid can be neutralized effectively by adding a strong base to it. The strong base will react with the weak acid to form water and a salt, which will result in the neutralization of the acid.
