when we pump H gas into the water, will it form water with the OH- ions???

 

If so, why???

 

By the way, where do the remainning electrons given by H gas go??

Where did these OH- ions come from?

OH- comes from water......

 

water contains H+ and OH- ions, that are being attracted by the large amount of H2O molecules......

 

By the way, Any help to my first message?

 

Albert

I don't think the OH- has the potential to break up an H-H bond.

Something I'm missing here? How did the water magically split into OH- and H+?

Every 1.0x10^-7 moles of water per liter of water will dissociate into H+ and OH-.

Yeah, jdurg covered it quite well. Water molecules are like... err, zombies. They tear each other apart all the time.

it's just simple dissociation; you see it happen with water and ionic solutes in water for example

so, any body refer to my first message???

I think nothing will happen since hydrogen has a VERY low solubility in water and the molecular hydrogen are not in the form of ions,it will not react with the OH- ions. Atomic hydrogen might work though.
