From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am Wikipedianist. My favorite Canada's metro-area is Ottawa-Gatineau. Now, I'm writing about AgNO3 and other chemical substances. Last year I edited many Wikipedia pages. I have a Twitter and Youtube account. I hate Lianne Laing. I like Chemistry. I am Roman Catholic.

                                        Oxides, acids, bases and salts

Inorganic substances are 104 elements and group: oxides, acids, bases and salts. Oxide is a binary compound of oxygen with another element or group. MgO is a magnesium oxide. HgO is mercury oxide. CaO - Calcium oxide. Oxidation is the process or result of oxidizing or being oxidized. Oxidation can be turbulent and quiet. Turbulent oxidation is combustion. Quiet oxidation is breathing. Corrosion is a quiet oxidation too. 2Hg+O2=2HgO (mercury oxide) Acid is a chemical substance that neutralizes alkalis, dissolves some metals, and turns litmus red; typically, a corrosive or sour-tasting liquid of this kind. Acid is a molecule or other entity that can donate a proton or accept an electron pair in reactions. Hydrogen+nonmetal=acid. H2SO4 - sulfuric acid, HCl - hydrochloric acid, HNO3 - nitric acid, H3PO4 - phosphoric acid. Dissociation is the splitting of a molecule into smaller molecules, atoms, or ions, especially by a reversible process. In chemistry, bases are substances that, in aqueous solution, are slippery to the touch, tastes bitter, changes the color of indicators (e.g., turns red litmus paper blue), reacts with acids to form salts, and promotes certain chemical reactions (base catalysis).
