OH- is common to bases.
Explanation:
The base is a is an ionic compounds which when placed in aqueous solution dissociates in to a cation and an anion OH-.
The presence of OH- in the solution shows that the solution is basic or alkaline.
From Bronsted and Lowry concept base is a molecule that accepts a proton for example in NaOH, Na is a proton donor and OH is the proton acceptor.
A base accepts hydrogen ion and the concentration of OH is always higher in base.
There is a presence of conjugate acid and conjugate base in the Bronsted and Lowry acid and base.
Conjugate acid is one which is formed when a base gained a proton.
Conjugate base is one which is formed when an acid looses a proton.
And from the Arrhenius base Theory, the base is one that dissociates in to water as OH-.
Answer: Metal, OH-.
Explanation:
Bases are characterized by the formation of OH- which results when the bases are dissolved in water. Bases that produce many OH- ions in water solution are strong bases. Those that produce few OH- are weak bases. Since it produces hydrogen and hydroxide ions, water has characteristics of both acids and bases.
All bases contain at least one metal plus hydrogen and oxygen combined in a hydroxide ion.
