Amazing question!!!! Yes, it can happen, although I have not seen it on an ALEKS problem (yet, haha). In this case, you would compare the Ka to the Kb. If the Ka is greater than the Kb, the acidic cation "dominates" and the solution is acidic. And vice versa. Here's a video where I go over this concept. (I tried to set up the link so that it would start at the relevant spot, which is at about 4:50 in.) czcams.com/video/RqLxB4EqY24/video.htmlsi=b9QhARhDPtujO_3t&t=280
you are actually saving me rn, was struggling with pH homework and you are helping me understand it so much easier.
I'm happy that you are understanding it now! this is a really tricky concept!
you are single handedly carrying my chem grade this semester :’) thank you
You're welcome :)
Perfect explanation! Thank you so much.
This video is godsent! Thanks Roxi!
You're very welcome, Geri!
THANK YOU !!! SO MUCH!
Woahhh I never thought I would be able to do this, this was super super helpful THANKS!
Of course you can do it!!!
you are a queen thank you
THANK YOU YOU SAVED MY CHEM GRADE! ❤
You're so welcome!!
Thank you Ms. Hulet !
You are so welcome
thank you! this explanation was great
Thanks!
very helpful
Would you ever get an answer where one solution's cation is acidic and the anion is basic? If so what happens then?

@@RoxiHulet Thank you so much!! I appreciate you and your videos so much! They help explain things a lot better for me!
what if the anion is acidic? Like NaCH3CO2?
That is a basic anion. Anions are never acidic, only neutral or basic.
