In the chemical reaction: naoh (s) + h2o na+ (aq) + oh- (aq), which substance (or substances) is in solution? a. na+ (aq) only b. oh- (aq) only c. na+ (aq) and oh- (aq) d. naoh (s)

the answer is c.

in a chemical reaction of NaOH with H2O, after NaOH is completely disassociated, we will find Na+ and OH- ions in the solution. (option C).

Explanation:

In a reaction where NaOH is added to H2O.

NaOH is considered a strong base, this means that in an aqueous solution ( in water) it's  able to completely disassociate in ions.

There will not remain any NaOH in the solution. This means option D is not correct.

The ions in which NaOH will disassociate are : NaOH → Na+ + OH-

These ions we will find in the solution.

Not only Na+ because NaOH is a strong base, so there will be a lot of OH- ions as well in solution.

This means in a chemical reaction of NaOH with H2O, after NaOH is completely disassociated, we will find Na+ and OH- ions in the solution.

ca has a crystalline lattice with positive ions (since it is a metal, metals are positively charged) and electrons flow freely in its structure since the ca atoms have a large nuclear radius so the electrons are not tightly held, therefore the electrons can flow freely since they are not being highly attracted by the nucleus. moreover, one of the properties of metals are that they are conductors of electricity, thus proving ca is the element.
