Acids do not?

Question

a.taste sour

b. neutralize bases

c. liberate OH- ions when dissolved in water

d. combine with active metals to give off H2

Answer 1

C.

Acids do taste sour

Acids do neutralise bases

Acids do combine with active metals to give off H2

but they don't liberate OH- ions, rather they dissociate in aqueous solution to give H3O+ (hydronium ions) which are acidic.

Answer 2

a. taste sour - it does. if you think about it, if you eat a lime, it's an acid, and it's sour.

b. neutralize bases - yes. if you put vinegar and baking soda together (base and acid) it reacts together to become a neutral product.

c. This is the correct answer. Acids do not liberate OH- ions when they dissolve in water.

d. acids do combhine with active metals to give off H2, to neutralize itself.

Answer 3

c, alkalis liberates OH

Answer 4

c. liberate OH- ions when dissolved in water

Answer 5

acids taste sour,

neutralize bases to form salt and water,

liberate hydrogen ion, H+ when dissolved in water

and produce salt and hydrogen gas, H2 when reacted with metal.

C!! that's for alkali (soluble base)
