it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions
the more hydroxide ions releases, the more basic the solution becomes. and the solution has more hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions.
When bases dissolve in water, they usually form alkaline solution. An alkaline solution has a pH that is more than seven.
No. If the number of H+ and OH- ions are equal then the solution is neutral. A solution is considered alkaline if it has more OH- ions than H+ ions.
When a solution has more hydrogen ions it will be acidic.
An acidic solution has a greater number of hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions. However, technically they are hydronium ions (H3O+), not hydrogen ions.
Basic or alkaline or greater than pH 7
Anything with a pH greater than 7 is called a base. This is because pH measures the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution. Because a base usually has an ending of -OH (or hydroxide), there are more OH ions in solution than hydrogen ions.
It would become more basic.
base
Yes, pH above 7 is the result of a more alkaline, caustic solution. It means that there's more hydroxide ions than hydroxonium ions (or protons) in this.
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-
If a substance has more hydrogen ions than hydroxyl ions it causes the substance to be acidic on the pH scale, and vice versa. Hydrogen ions have a positive charge while hydroxyl has an negative.
