Why do many metal ions produce acidic solutions when dissolved in water?

1 answer:

8 0

<span>Water molecules form a complex with metal ions (usually a 6-coordinate complex). And the high charge density on a metal ion draws electrons away from the water molecules, making the O-H bonds more polar than normal. This allows the dissociation of the protons, making solutions of most metal ions acidic</span>
