Termini in questo insieme (15)

  • Arrhenius Acid
    A substance that, when dissolved in water, increases the concentration of H+ ions in the solution.
  • Arrhenius Base
    A substance that, when dissolved in water, increases the concentration of OH- ions in the solution.
  • Binary Acid
    A compound composed of hydrogen and one other nonmetal element, forming acidic solutions in water.
  • Oxy Acid
    A compound containing hydrogen, oxygen, and another element, producing acidic solutions when dissolved in water.
  • H+
    A cation released by acids in aqueous solutions, responsible for acidic properties.
  • OH-
    An anion released by bases in aqueous solutions, responsible for basic properties.
  • Aqueous Solution
    A mixture where water acts as the solvent, allowing acids and bases to dissociate into ions.
  • Dissociation
    The process by which a compound separates into ions when dissolved in water.
  • Solvent
    A substance, typically water in this context, that dissolves other substances to form a solution.
  • Concentration
    The amount of a specific ion or molecule present in a given volume of solution.
  • Strong Acid
    A compound that completely dissociates in water, producing a high concentration of H+ ions.
  • Weak Acid
    A compound that only partially dissociates in water, resulting in a lower concentration of H+ ions.
  • Limitation
    A restriction or shortcoming, such as the inability of a definition to apply outside aqueous environments.
  • Product
    A substance formed as a result of the dissociation of an acid or base in water.
  • NaOH
    A common example of a base that dissociates in water to yield Na+ and OH- ions.
