The oxide ion in CaO (O2-) is a very strong base, meaning it will easily take a hydrogen ion (H+) from a molecule. In water the oxide ion take a hydrogen ion from a water molecule, forming to hydroxide ions.
O2- + H2O --> 2OH-
In this reaction the oxide ion acts as a base and the water molecule as an acid, at least by the Bronsted-Lowry definition.
- Sand does not dissolve in water- Plastic does not dissolve in water- metals do not dissolve in water
Salt and Sugar dissolve in water.
Yes, hydrophilic substances dissolve in water. Hydrophilic molecules are attracted to water molecules due to their polar nature, allowing them to form bonds with water and dissolve in it. This is in contrast to hydrophobic substances, which repel water and do not dissolve in it.
Yes, some inorganic substances can dissolve in water. The ability of a substance to dissolve in water depends on its chemical properties and interactions with water molecules. Substances that are polar or ionic tend to dissolve well in water, while nonpolar substances generally do not dissolve.
A substance is 'insoluble in water' if it will not dissolve in water, although it may dissolve in another solvent.
In one mole of this solution, there are seven moles of H2O.

Calcium Hydroxide, or CaOH2, is a base. Generally compounds containing hydroxyl groups and metals will act as bases in reaction.
Nope... it is not.
No. Lipids do not dissolve in water.
No, but salt does dissolve in water.
No, carbon does not dissolve in water.
Yes it does dissolve in tap water. It can really dissolve in any water.
Nutilite's vitamins dissolve in water.
Yes, cinnamon does not dissolve in water.
Yes, lithium does dissolve in water.
yea water can dissolve polar compounds
