Acidic and alkaline solutions can conduct electricity because they have ions that are free to carry charge. Look at the formulae of these acids. They all contain H + ions.

Figure 1. Reference molecule for definition of Brønsted-Lowry acids and bases. Water behaves as both an acid and a base. When water behaves as an acid, it donates one of its two protons and becomes a ...

A few drops of dilute sodium hydroxide solution react to form a white precipitate with aluminium ions, calcium ions and magnesium ions. However, if excess sodium hydroxide solution is added ...

In today’s video, I will show you how to turn water into hydrogen and oxygen to generate HHO gas. In this video, I separate the water molecules, which are hydrogen and oxygen, by electrolysing water, ...
