Explain why NaCl is considered a neutral compound under the Arrhenius definition.
What is because NaCl does not produce H⁺ or OH⁻ ions in solution?
Explain why HNO₂ is named nitrous acid, while HNO₃ is named nitric acid.
What is because HNO₂ contains the nitrite (NO₂⁻) ion, while HNO₃ contains the nitrate (NO₃⁻) ion?
Explain why transition metal bases require Roman numerals in their names.
What is because transition metals charge varies, so the numeral specifies the correct charge?
Why does phenolphthalein turn pink in a basic solution but remain colorless in an acidic solution?
What is because phenolphthalein is a pH indicator that changes color at a pH above 8?
Explain why strong acids and strong bases are considered strong electrolytes.
What is because they completely dissociate into ions in aqueous solutions, allowing them to conduct electricity well?
