Why acids have property todonate H+ ions while they dissolve in water .
Question asked by: bhupesh
Asked on: 15 Oct 2008
When acids dissolve, they turn into a proton and then the salt part.
So for instance H2SO4, results in two H+ ions and one So4-- ion.
In other words, it is due to the hydrolysis, or splitting in water, into the constituent charged parts of atoms, that leads to the H+ being in solution.
In a neutralisation reaction this will combine with the OH-, hydroxide, in an alkali to form water.
