Most bases are ionic compounds, and MUST be (soluble/insoluble)

A

Soluble

24
Q

When bases are added to water it _

A

Dissociates

25
Q

Some bases react with water to PRODUCE _

A

(an) ionic compound(s)

26
Q

Strong species (acids/bases) ionize nearly % (>%)

A

For bases, [H3O+] (&raquo_space; or &laquo_space;) [OH-]

A

For acids, [H3O+]&raquo_space; [OH-]

For bases, [H3O+] &laquo_space;[OH-]

39
Q
