Explain the role of water in the ionization of acids and bases |
|
Answer» Ionization of a compound refers to a process in which a neutral molecule splits into charged ions when exposed in a solution.According to Arrhenius theory, acids are the compounds that dissociate in an aqueous medium to generate hydrogen ions,\xa0H+\xa0(aq). On the other hand, bases are the compounds which furnish hydroxyl ions,\xa0OH−(aq) in an aqueous medium. when acids and bases react in neutralization reaction , salt and water is formedAcid + Base ==> Salt + Water |
