When acids dissolve in water they release a proton - also called a H+ ion. So the answer is "a". The level of acidity is due to H+ and level of alkalinity due to (OH)-. This is displayed in the equation pH=-log[H+] i.e. concentration of H+ ion.
H plus ion concentration can be decreased by adding base to the solution. The reduction can also be done by accepting hydrogen ions.
acids
Yes and No. Acid release H plus into solution. and LOWER ph.
Acids: H+ and Bases: OH-
Yes they do!
Acids will give H+ ions.
i am a beast
Acids release H+ in an aqueous solution.
No, acids do. Bases produce OH- ions

All acids yield a proton and a anion. For eg: HCl -------> H+ + Cl- H2SO4 --------> H+ + SO42-HNO3 ---------> H+ + NO3-
The H+ from a strong acid reacts with a water molecule (H2O) to generate H3O^+, the hydronium ion.
They aren't. Acids are molecules that, when dissolved in water, increase the concentration of H+ ion. The anion is negatively charged, and the hydrogen ion is positively charged. Consider HCl: HCl -> H+ + Cl- There's still a total neutral charge.
