How does NaOH form a basic solution when it dissolves in water

1 answer:

8 0

It decomposes into CH3COO- and H+ when dissolved in water. The H+ ions react with the water molecules to generate H3O+, making the solution acidic. When NaOH is added to water, it separates into Na+ and OH-. The sodiums have little effect on the solution, but the hydroxyls make it more basic.
