Which of the following descriptions best describes a weak base?

A. a base that dissociated completely in water

B. a base that generates a lot of hydroxide ions in water

C. a base that has very low concentration in water

D. A base that dissociates only slightly in water

Respuesta :

Answer:

umm.. B. a base that generates a lot of hydroxide ions in water.

The descriptions best describes a weak base is a base that dissociates only slightly in water.

What are bases?

Bases are those substances which react with acids to neutralize them, generally bases are the compounds of oxides, hydroxides and carbonates of metal elements.

Bases shows dissocation in the aqueous soluition and pH of bases ranges from 7 to 14. Strong bases shows full dissociation into ions and having higher pH values and weak bases shows partial dissociation into ions & having lower pH values.

Hence, option (D) is correct.
