Q

Why do strong acids like hydrochloric acid dissolve fully in water?

A

The acid particles dissociate to release H+ ions

Q

Why do weak acids not dissolve fully in water

A

Not many of the acid particles dissociate so not as many H+ ions are released

Q

When asked about acid pH changing in reactions how do you work out the concentration of the acid change?

A

Find the change of pH

Times the answer by 10 to the power of (the difference in pH)

Q

Acid + Metal =?

A

Acid + Metal = Salt + hydrogen

20
Q

Metal + water –> ?

A

Metal + water –> Metal hydroxide + hydrogen

21
Q

What is a redox reaction?

A

Where electrons are transferred

22
Q

Why does the anode always need replacing often

A

It’s made of carbon so reacts with oxygen forming CO2
