(i) Acids as well as bases ionize in water . Name the ions produced by each in water.
(ii) If we have hydrochloric acid and acetic acid of equal concentration which will be a stronger acid and why?
(iii) How will the concentration of hydrogen ions gets affected if an acid is diluted.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) `H^+//H_3O^+` and `OH^(-)` respectively.
(ii) Hydrochloric acid will be a stronger acid, because it produces more `H^+` ions.
(iii) Concentration of `H^+` decreases with increase in dilution.
