How is the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) affected when excess base is dissolved in a solution of sodium hydroxide? |
|
Answer» The concentration of hydroxide ions will increase when excess base is dissolved in a solution of sodium hydroxide because the amount of hydroxide ions per unit volume increases. This happens only when base added dissolves in water. If the base is not soluble in water, the concentration of hydroxide ions remains constant. |
