Q

All acid chemical formulas begin with __ ?

A

H

17
Q

Why do all acid chemical formulas start with H ?

A

It’s because all acids release H(Hydrogen) ions when in an aqueous solution (when dissolved in water) . In addition acids also release a negative ion, which most of the time is a nonmetal.

18

A

Yes

19
Q

Are bases electrolytes ?

A

Yes

20
Q

A

OH

21
Q

Why do all base chemical formulas end with OH ?

A

It’s because all bases release OH ions when in an aqueous solution. They also release positive ion ( most of the time )
