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.
bases
Water and heat
The pH of a solution is related directly to its concentrations of hydronium ions(H3O^+) and hydroxide ions(OH-). Acidic solutions have more hydronium ions than hydroxide ions. Neutral solutions have equal numbers of the 2 ions. Basic solutions have more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.
Acids
acid
If it is in water (supposedly meant by questioneer), the pH value is below 7.0, so it is an acid solution: more H+ than OH-
yes!

Hydronium Ions
Their are hydroxyl ions not hydroxide ions. They are OH- . hydronium ions are H3O+ . Presence of hydroxyl ionsin a compound shows its basic nature whereas presence of hydronium ions in a compound shows its acidic nature .
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.

Acids
They form water! H3O+ OH = 2H2O . If you can see, there's four hydrogens, two oxygens. This is just enough to make 2 molecules of water!
yes ,hydronium ions are more acidic than hydroxide ion.
it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions
No. pH is the negative logarithm of the concentration of the hydronium ion. Equal numbers of hydronium ions and hydroxyl ions occurrs only when a solution is neutral.
