Acids and Bases Honors Chemistry

What happens immediately after you dissolve acid in water?

• Positively charged hydrogen atoms are released.

• Hydronium ions are released.

• Negatively charged hydrogen atoms are released.

• Neutrally charged hydrogen atoms are released.

What do acids and bases have in common?

• They both eat away at metal.

• They can both conduct electricity.

• They both have a sour taste.

• They both form positively charged ions when dissolved in water.
