Ionic Product of water

Science > Chemistry > Physical Chemistry > Ionic Equilibria > Ionic Product of water In this article, we shall study concepts of the ionic product of water, pH and pOH of a solution and their importance. Ion Equilibrium in Water: Water has electrical conductivity, hence it must undergo dissociation. “Dissociation of pure water to a […]

Ionic Theory

Science > Chemistry > Physical Chemistry > Ionic Equilibria > Ionic Theory In this article, we shall study Arrhenius ionic theory, the concept of ionization and dissociation, Applying law of mass action to reactions involving ions. Electrolytes on the Basis of Ionic Theory:  According to Arrhenius ionic theory, a substance (acid) base or salt, which […]
