Chem

• The pH scale is logarithmic, meaning that each whole number change represents a tenfold increase or decrease.
• A solution with a pH of 7 is neutral because it contains equal amounts of hydrogen (H+) and hydroxide (OH-) ions.
• Acids have more H+ than OH- ions, resulting in a lower pH value.
• Bases have fewer H+ than OH- ions, leading to a higher pH value.
• Bases have more OH- than H+ ions, leading to a higher pH value.
• Strong acids completely dissociate into their component ions when they are dissolved in water, while weak acids only partially ionize.
• Weak bases do not fully dissociate into their component ions upon dissolution in water.
• Neutral substances contain an equal amount of H+ and OH- ions, resulting in a pH of 7.
• Weak acids only partially dissociate into their component ions when they are dissolved in water.
• Strong acids completely dissociate into their component ions when they are dissolved in water.
• Strong acids completely dissociate into their component ions when they are dissolved in water, while weak acids only partially ionize.
• Solutions containing weak acids can be made stronger by adding an acid catalyst such as sulfuric acid.
• The pH scale measures the acidity or alkalinity of a substance on a logarithmic scale from 0 to 14.
• Neutralization reactions occur between an acid and a base, producing salt and water as products.
• Weak bases do not fully dissociate into their component ions when dissolved in water.
• Salt formation occurs during the reaction between an acid and a metal oxide/hydroxide.
• The pH scale ranges from 0 (very acidic) to 14 (very basic).
• A solution with a pH less than 7 is considered acidic, while one greater than 7 is alkaline or basic.
• A pH of 7 indicates that there is an equal number of hydrogen (H+) and hydroxide (OH-) ions present in the solution.
• branch of science that deals with the identification of the substances of which matter is composed; the investigation of their properties and the ways in which they interact, combine, and change; and the use of these processes to form new substances.
• the branch of chemistry concerned with the composition, structure, properties, and reactions of atoms and molecules
• a compound containing only carbon and hydrogen
• a substance formed by chemical combination of two or more elements
• a substance made up of two or more elements chemically combined in fixed proportions
• an organic substance made up of two or more monomers joined together by covalent bonds
• a compound containing carbon and hydrogen only
• a compound formed by the chemical combination of two nonmetals
• a polymer formed when many small molecules called monomers join together
• an element consisting of pure metal
• a type of chemical bond where electrons are shared between atoms
• a mixture of solid particles suspended in water
• a nonmetallic element that exists as a gas at room temperature
• a substance consisting entirely of one element
• a substance consisting of two or more different elements chemically united in definite proportion
• a substance consisting of one kind of atom (or ion) only
• the process by which an atom gains or loses electrons to form ions
• the process of adding or removing an electron from an atom to form a charged particle
• a substance made up of one or more elements joined chemically
• a mixture that cannot be separated into its components using physical methods alone
• the process that occurs when an ionic substance dissolves to form positive and negative ions in solution
