• Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theoryRelated: It acts as a Brønsted base in many aqueous neutralization reactions.

• NucleophileBroader topic: Hydroxide attacks electrophilic carbon centers and can also promote elimination.

• Sodium hydroxideBroader topic: Hydroxide ions account for sodium hydroxide’s basicity and many of its reactions.

• SaponificationRelated: Hydroxide supplies the nucleophile that initiates base-promoted bond cleavage.

• Potassium hydroxideBroader topic: Hydroxide ions from dissolved KOH accept protons and drive its characteristic reactions.

• NeutralizationRelated: Hydroxide ions combine with hydrogen ions to form water in the common net ionic reaction.

• Calcium hydroxideNarrower topic: Two hydroxide ions balance the +2 charge of each calcium ion.

• Polyatomic ionBroader topic: Hydroxide is a basic ion whose reactions often involve proton transfer.

• Hydroxyl radicalCompared with: Unlike hydroxide, ·OH is neutral and has an unpaired electron.

• FluorideCompared with: Hydroxide competes with fluoride for mineral sites and can be confused with it in fluorapatite formulas.

• Half-reactionRelated: OH⁻ is used to balance hydrogen and oxygen in basic solution.

• Hydration shellBroader topic: Its hydration includes distinctive hydrogen-bond arrangements around a negative charge.

• OxideCompared with: Hydroxides contain hydrogen as well as oxygen, so they are not binary oxides.

• HydroniumCompared with: Hydroxide is the negatively charged counterpart in water’s proton-transfer chemistry.

• Strong baseRelated: Dissolved metal hydroxides provide hydroxide ions that drive strong-base behavior.

• Acid–base chemistryRelated: Its concentration tracks basicity in aqueous solutions.

• Lithium hydroxideNarrower topic: Hydroxide ions give lithium hydroxide its alkaline behavior.

• Hydrogen ionCompared with: Hydroxide is a common aqueous counterpart to H⁺ in acid–base chemistry.

• Oxide ionCompared with: Hydroxide contains hydrogen and has a 1− charge, unlike oxide.

• Brønsted–Lowry baseBroader topic: It exemplifies a charged base in aqueous neutralization.

• Magnesium hydroxideBroader topic: Hydroxide ions give the compound its basic character and consume stomach acid.

• OxyanionCompared with: Hydroxide contains oxygen but is not an oxyanion under the usual definition, which requires another element besides hydrogen.

• Arrhenius baseBroader topic: Arrhenius bases raise its concentration in aqueous solution.

• BorateRelated: Hydroxide addition to boric acid changes boron’s coordination and creates tetrahedral borate.

• BruciteNarrower topic: Hydroxide groups combine with magnesium to make brucite’s chemical formula.

• Fluoride ionCompared with: Hydroxide is often confused with fluoride in discussions of aqueous anions, but has different acid-base chemistry.
