lower
Acid solutions contain higher concentrations of hydrogen ions (hydronium ions).
It is an acid!! I am in chemistry class right now and my teacher just said Windex is a acid!!
The hydronium ions have a +1 charge - the formula is H3O+
Hydrogen Ion is obtained by removing one electron from hydrogen atom. It is represented by H+ ,which is a proton. In aqueous solution it combines with water molecule to form hydronium ion, which is represented by H3O+.
Yes, in fact an acidic solution is, by definition, one where the hydronium ion concentration is higher than the hydroxide ion concentration.
In an acidic solution, the relative concentration of hydronium ions will always be higher than hydroxide ions. This means that the relatively concentration of hydroxide ions will always be lower than hydronium ions in an acidic solution. The reason for this is that in a neutral solution, the concentration of both hydronium ions and hydroxides ions are equal (both are 10-7). By making the concentration of hydronium ions greater than the concentration of hydroxide ions, the solution becomes acidic.
A pH of 3.0 has a higher hydronium ion concentration.
lower
Both must be in solution, aqueous, to fit the definition, which is; an acidic solution has enough hydronium ion concentration to hydroxide concentration to have a pH lower than 7.0, while a basic solution has enough hydroxide ion concentration to be at a pH higher than 7.0. An acid and base are different in definition. Subtle, but a real difference.
Acid solutions contain higher concentrations of hydrogen ions (hydronium ions).
pH is a measure of the activity of hydroxide (OH-) and hydronium (H3O+) in aqueous solution. Acidic solutions have greater numbers of reactive hydronium ions. Basic solutions have more hydroxide ions and less reactive hydronium ions.
0 - 6.9 The lower the pH number the higher the concentration of hydronium ions and higher the strength of acid
Depends if you have a Hydroxide [OH^-] or a Hydronium [H3O^+] solution.The Ph of an acid or base is determined by the concentration of the Hydronium [H30^+]. So just find out [H30^+], then use the equation "-log10[H30^+]. Should be between 1-14.7= neutral. lower than 7 = acid. higher than 7= base.If you have a hydroxide to begin with. Ie. NaOH. Then you will have the concentration for the OH, which is = to NaOH. If you get something like Ca(OH)2 then you just multiply your concentration of Ca(OH)2 by 2 to get (concentration)[OH^-].Then use the equation 10^14M/ [OH^-] to find out [H30^+].Once you have the [H30^+] just use the -log10[H30^+]
Hydronium ion, H3O+, is what gives a low pH to an aqueous solution. Hydronium ion is made when an acid donates a hydrogen ion to a water molecule. Hydroxide ion, OH-, gives a higher pH to an aqueous solution. Hydroxide ions are found in bases; a base donates hydroxide ions to water. Combining H3O+ + OH- makes 2 H2O. In other words, an acid and a base combine to neutralize each other as water.

The higher the pH, the greater the concentration of Hydroxide (OH-) ions. So, the solution with the pH of 9 is your answer.
