Question

. When dissolved in water, acids release _____ and bases release _____.

hydrogen ions; hydroxyl ions
hydroxyl ions; hydrogen ions

Answer 1

The correct answer is;

Hydrogen ions, Hydroxyl ions

Step-by-step explanation:

When HCl is computed to water, it splits apart into H(+) and Cl(-), raising the number of hydrogen ions in the water–HCl solution. Bases are molecules that can break apart in water and deliver hydroxide ions. The most well-known case is sodium hydroxide (NaOH).

Answer 2

Acids release hydrogen ions (H+) and bases release hydroxyl ions (OH-).

The first option is correct.
