Do basic solutions also have H+ (aq) ions? If yes, then why are these basic? |

Answer» Bases are SUBSTANCES to release hydroxide ions (OH– ions) when dissolved in water. They are found to have a soapy texture when touched. In their aqueous solutions, bases act as good conductors of ELECTRICITY, the PH VALUES corresponding to bases are always greater than 7. Bases are bitter-tasting substances which have the ability to turn red litmus paper blue.H + ions can be found in all basic solutions. They are basic SINCE hydrogen ions have a much lower concentration than hydroxide ions.Yes basic solutions also have H+(aq) ions. They are basic because the concentration of hydroxide (OH−) is more than the H+(aq) ions. |
