Q

What are nonelectrolytes?

A

substances that may dissolve in water, but don’t dissociate into ions when they do so (solution does not conduct electricity)

Q

What are bases?

A

Bases are substances that react with, or accept H+ ions; they increase the concentration of OH- when dissolved in water.
Substances do not have to contain OH- to be a base

Q

What are strong acids?

A

Strong acids COMPLETELY dissociate in water

17
Q

What are weak acids?

A

Weak acids only partially dissociate in water

18
Q

What are strong bases?

A

Strong bases dissociate into metal cations and hydroxide anions in water

19
Q

What are weak bases?

A

Weak acids only partially react to produce hydroxide anions

20
Q

What are the common strong bases?

A

Group 1A metal hydroxides (LiOH, NaOH, KOH, RbOH, CsOH)
Heavy Group 2A metal hydroxides
