How many electrons will hydrogen gain or lose when it forms an ion?
Hydrogen usually loses its single electron to become a hydrogen ion, H+.
What compare and contrast a hydrogen ion and a hydroxide ion?
i'm not sure the comparison, but the contrast is hydrogen loses electrons while hydroxide gains electrons.
What is hydrogen ions and will take as many as possible?
When hydrogen loses one electron from its 1s atomic orbital, then it forms hydrogen ion. Hydrogen ion only take that atom which has only -1 valency .
What is the hydrogen ion and formula?
The hydrogen ion is H+. It loses its electron and becomes a free proton. (That is for the simplest isotope; there are also heavier isotopes that have either one or two neutrons added to the nucleus.)
What ion is formed when a hydrogen ion combines with water molecule?
The hydronium ion which is written chemically as H3O+ will be formed when the water and the hydrogen ion combine. The ability of water to attract the hydrogen ion is what will lead to the formation of the hydronium ion.
How many electrons will hydrogen gain or lose when it forms an ion?
Hydrogen usually loses its single electron to become a hydrogen ion, H+.
What does one hydrogen ion and one hydroxide ion make?
This combination produces water.Water molecules are consist of a hydrogen ion and a hydroxide ion. One hydrogen ion and one hydroxide ion combines to make a water mlecule.
What compare and contrast a hydrogen ion and a hydroxide ion?

What is hydrogen ions and will take as many as possible?
When hydrogen loses one electron from its 1s atomic orbital, then it forms hydrogen ion. Hydrogen ion only take that atom which has only -1 valency .
What are the hydrogen ion and hydrogen ion concentrations in water?
These concentrations are supposed to be equal.
What ion is formed in water?
A hydrogen ion (H+)
What is a water molecule that loses a hydrogen ion?
It becomes hydronium. H2O + H+ = H3O+
When hydrogen loses atoms what is formed?
Hydrogen itself is an atom. If that hydrogen atom were to lose/gain/share electrons it would become an isotope/ ion
When a chemical loses a hydrogen ion is it behaving as an acid or a base?
When a chemical loses (or donates) a hydrogen bond, it is behaving as an acid.To help with this remember the acronym BAADBases Accept, Acids Donate
A water molecule after its accepts a hydrogen ion?
Hydronium Ion
What ion is formed from a hydrogen ion and a water molecule?
This ion is hydronium: (H3O)+.
When acids in water what positive ion is produced in excess?
When acids in water hydrogen positive ion is produced in excess. It is this hydrogen positive ion that gives acidity of a solution.
