what type of ions do acids produce when placed in water
The acid illustrated is hydrochloric acid. Pure hydrochloric acid is a gas, but it dissolves easily in water to produce a solution of hydrogen ion and chloride ion. Since nearly all of it is dissociated in water, it is called a strong acid. Acids that do not dissociate completely are called weak acids.eutralization. When a base and an acid are mixed, the hydroxide ion and the base combines with the hydrogen ion from the acid to form water. This process is called neutralization. Questions: 1.
