Why do acids do not show acidic behavior in the absence of water
Answers
Answer:
Acids do not show acidic behaviour in the absence of water because the dissociation of hydrogen ions from an acid occurs in the presence of water only. It is the hydrogen ions that are responsible for the acidic behaviour.

HEY FRIEND HERE IS UR ANSWER ,
The acids do not show acidic behavior in the absence of water because there is no production of ions.
Acids are any inorganic or organic compounds with hydrogen atoms. Generally, all the acids are considered to be weak. So, they dissociate into ions easily in the "polar solvents" such as water.
The concept of acidic behavior arises due to the presence of ions. The acids when dissolves in water only produce ions. So, acid does not have any acidic behavior in "absence of water".
