define hydroxie ion

Question and answer

define hydroxie ion

Hydroxide is a polyatomic ion consisting of oxygen and hydrogen: H- It has a charge of -1. Hydroxide is one of the simplest of the polyatomic ions. A group of bases containing hydroxide are called hydroxide bases. [ Hydroxide bases will dissociate into a cation and one or more hydroxide ions in water, making the solution basic. This makes hydroxides alkalis, which may undergo neutralisation reactions with acids. In general acid-alkali reactions can be simplified to OH-(aq) + H+(aq) ? H2O(l) by omitting spectator ions. ]
