what can strong acids do
fully ionise (completely dissociate)
give an equation to show a strong acid
HCl –> H(+) + Cl(-)
define concentrated acid
contain a high population of H+ ions in a given volume
define dilute acid
contain a low population of H+ ions in a given volume
what happens to weak acids
do not fully dissociate
what do alkalis release
release OH- ions
what happens when an acid and base react
produce salt and water
define acid
proton donor/ releases H+ ions in aqueous solutions
define alkali
releases OH- ions in aqueous solution
define base
accepts H+ ions
