Do acids give soaps their useful properties?
No, soap is a base actually.
Does acid give soap its useful properties?
That depends on the acid and its concentration, and temperature. It is likely to dissolve in the water of any dilute acids anyway. Soaps are Na or K salts of fatty acids. Mixed with an acid, depending on dissociation constants, solubilities etc., you may form a metal salt of the free acid and reform the fatty acid. The huge majority of fatty acids in soaps are water immiscible, but with soap present they could disperse.
What ions are produced by acids in water and bases in water Give two properties each of acids and bases?
Hydronium (H3O+) for acids and hydroxide (OH-) for bases. Acids: pH less than seven, have a sour taste Bases: pH > 7, slippery, bitter taste
What makes acids weaker than other acids?
The strength of an acid is determined by how easily they give up their hydrogen ion, if they give it up easily they are strong acids, if they release the hydrogen ion slowly they are weak.
How do solutions of acids and bases differ in terms of particles?
Acids form hydrogen ions (H+) while bases form hydroxide ions (OH-). These ionic differences relate to the properties of acids and bases because they are what give them their properties in a water solution.
Do acids give soaps their useful properties?
No, soap is a base actually.
What part of an acids chemical formula is responsible for its acidic properties?
Hydrogen ions give acids their acidic properties.

Is a property of acids?
it will turn blue litmus paper redAll acids dissociate fully or partially, into ions and give protons in the aqueous medium.

Hydronium (H3O+) for acids and hydroxide (OH-) for bases. Acids: pH less than seven, have a sour taste Bases: pH > 7, slippery, bitter taste
Is CO2 a acid base salt?
acids dissolve in water to give H+ ions and the anion, where the H+ ions give the acid its properties since CO4 does hav H+ ions in it, it is definitely not an acid not all compounds containing H+ ions are acids though
What is the term that describes acids which give a low concentration of hydronium ions?
Such acids are considered weak acids, such as organic acids.
All acids ionise in water to give?
All Arrhenius acids ionize in water to give H+ ions. While Lewis acids are proton donors.
Give an example of polypeptide?
Protein.
How do you show a document's properties in a word document?
Click File Then click Properties in the drop down list. The Properties box gives information on the dates of creation and modifications, who the document is assigned to. It will also give statistics as the number of words, useful for exam papers when they ask for an essay of say 5000 words.
What are important properties of acids and bases?
Acids: 1) Taste Sour 2) PH less than 7 3) Proton Donnors 4) Lewis Acids 5) React with Metals to give hydrogen 6) Electrolytes Bases: 1) Taste Bitter 2) PH greater than 7 3) Proton Acceptors 4) Electrolytes
What is the market of lux soap and why is it so?
lux soaps are very cheap and give out good fagrances
