Question

define basicity of acid acidity of base

Answer 1

Basicity is defined as the number of replaceable or ionizable hydrogen atoms contained in acid molecule. e.g. hydrochloric acid is monbasic is one. So, basicity of an acid is actually how many base molecules can be neutrallised by the acid molecule.

Answer 2

Acidity of bases: The number of hydroxyl ions which can be produces per molecule of the base in aqueous solution. Basicity of acid : The basicity of an acid is defined as the number of hydronium ions that can be produced by the ionization of one molecule of that acid in aqueous soution. Answered By.
