Rabies is a very serious viral infection that targets the brain and nervous system. You can catch rabies if you are bitten by an infected animal and haven't been vaccinated. It's almost always fatal once symptoms develop, but can be prevented if treatment is given promptly after exposure.
Acids Bases and pH Scale. I. Acids *Acids are ionic compounds (a compound with a positive or negative charge) that break apart in water to form a hydrogen ion (H +). *The strength of an acid is based on the concentration of H + ions in the solution. The more H+ the stronger the acid.
- OH-accepted proton, it is a base. - An acid is changed into a base and a base is changed into an acid. - These pairs of acids and bases are called conjugate acid-base pairs. - A conjugate acid-base pair differ from each other only by a proton. WEAK ACIDS AND BASES For weak acids and bases, the concentration of acid (base) is not the concentration of [H + ] ([OH - ]). Weak Acids Dissociated ions are in equilibrium with undissociated molecule.
