What name is given to bases that dissolve in water?

when bases are placed in water, the bases release hydroxyl ions.


Do acids dissolve in bases or do bases dissolve in acids?

They don't dissolve (or more properly, dissociate) completely in water, only partially. Acids or bases that dissociate completely are called strong acids or bases.


Can you name alkalis?

something bases which can dissolve in water


Are Bases dissolve blank and blank?

Bases typically dissolve in water, producing hydroxide ions (OH⁻) in a solution. Common examples of bases that dissolve in water include sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium hydroxide (KOH). They can also react with acids to form salts and water in neutralization reactions.


Do bases have a high or low concentration of OH- ions?

Bases have a high concentration of OH- ions. When bases dissolve in water, they release hydroxide ions (OH-) which can accept protons to form water. This interaction is responsible for the basic properties of these substances.


Acids or bases dissolve in water to produce H?

Acids dissolve in water to produce H+ ions, while bases dissolve in water to produce OH- ions. This process is known as ionization or dissociation, and it is a key characteristic of acidic and basic solutions.


Bases which do not dissolve in water?

Bases that do not dissolve in water include some insoluble metal hydroxides like magnesium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, and barium hydroxide. These bases tend to form precipitates when added to water instead of fully dissolving.


Do bases dissolve grease?

Bases can react with greases; soaps are formed, soluble in hot water.


Ion released by many bases?

According to acid/base theory, acids release H+ ions in solution whereas bases release OH- (hydroxide) ions


Can bases dissolve metal?

Yes, bases can react with certain metals to form metal hydroxides, which may dissolve in water. For example, sodium hydroxide can dissolve aluminum to form sodium aluminate and hydrogen gas. However, not all metals will readily react with bases to dissolve.


What are the differences between bases and alkali in chemistry?

Bases are substances that can accept protons according to the Brønsted-Lowry definition, while alkalis are bases that are soluble in water. Essentially, all alkalis are bases, but not all bases are alkalis. Alkalis typically release hydroxide ions in solution, while bases may or may not release hydroxide ions depending on their solubility in water.


What W can be used to dissolve salt?

Water can be use to dissolve salt. The positive part of water molecules attracts the negative chloride ions and the negative part of water molecules attracts the positive sodium ions.
