True or False? Acids have less H+ in solution,
|
|
True
|
|
|
False
|
|
|
Either A or B
|
|
|
None of the above
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -An acidic solution has a high concentration of hydrogen ions (H +start superscript, plus, end superscript), greater than that of pure water. A basic solution has a low H +start superscript, plus, end superscript concentration, less than that of pure water.
Detailed explanation-2: -ions combine with water molecules to give H3O+ . Hence, acids give H3O+ or H+ (aq) ion in water is correct .
Detailed explanation-3: -All acids contain hydrogen. On reacting with metals, all acids produce hydrogen gas. All acids produce hydrogen ions in water. Compounds that contain hydrogen but do not generate hydrogen ions in aqueous medium are not acidic.
