10 Questions
A strong acid fully dissociates in water to produce hydrogen ions.
True
Weak acids, like ethanoic acid, dissociate fully in water to produce hydrogen ions.
False
Hydronium ions can exist on their own in water without bonding with water molecules.
False
According to the Arrhenius definition, a weak base is a substance that dissociates completely in water to produce hydroxide ions.
False
Sodium Hydroxide is considered a strong base because it almost completely dissociates in water to form hydroxide ions.
True
One of the shortcomings of the Arrhenius theory is that it is limited to solutions dissolved in water and does not consider acid-base reactions that do not involve OH- ions.
True
According to the Arrhenius theory, weak acids are almost completely dissociated to give hydrogen ions in solution.
False
The formula HA represents a strong monobasic acid.
False
In the dissociation of nitrous acid in water, H2O acts as an acid.
False
The conjugate base of the weak acid HA is stronger than the conjugate base of sulfuric acid.
False
Learn about bases according to the Arrhenius definition, which state that a base dissociates in water to produce OH- ions. The quiz covers examples such as NaOH, Mg(OH)2, and Ca(OH)2, as well as the characteristics of strong bases.
