Metal hydroxides will ionize in an aqueous solution, producing a metal cation and the hydroxide anion, which acts as a strong base. Hydroxide ions readily accept a proton to become water. The ...

Their findings are published in the journal Science. The mutual neutralization (MN) of hydronium cation, H 3 O +, and the hydroxide anion, OH – to form neutral water molecules is one of the most ...

developed a new anion exchange membrane (AEM) with durable hydrophobic components. High hydroxide ion (OH-) conductivity, which is essential for excellent performance in AEM water electrolyzers ...
