∙ 14y agoHydronium ion is a water molecule with an extra hydrogen ion attached to it. ( H2O + H+ → H3O+). It usually used to determine the acidity of a chemical compound.
When a compound is put into water solution, the more the hydronium ion is produced, the higher the acidity is.
EX: HCl(aq) + H2O(l) <----> Cl- + H3O+
The Hydrogen ion is transferred to water molecule.
A hydronium ion can also be represented as just a hydrogen ion (H+) in place of H3O+.
HCl(aq) → H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

∙ 14y agoHydronium 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.

What is the ion charge in H3O?
The electrical charge of hydronium is +1.
What is the formula of hydronium ion and oxide ion?
The chemical formula of hydronium ion is (H3O)+.For the "oxide ion" check your spelling.
The formula for hydronium ions is?
The chemical formula of hydronium is H3O +.
Describe the molecular geometry of the hydronium ion H3O?
The ion hydronium has a pyramidal form, H atoms forming the base.
What is a water molecule that loses a hydrogen ion?
It becomes hydronium. H2O + H+ = H3O+
What is the charge for hydronium ion?
+1 hydronium ion is H3O+
Does a hydronium ion have a positive charge?

What is the ion charge in H3O?
The electrical charge of hydronium is +1.
What is the charge of an oxygen and hydrogen polyatomic ion?
The ion hydronium, (H3O)+, is positive.
What is the formula and charge for Hydronium ion and oxide?
The formula forHydronium ion isH3O+, it has a charge of +1. The formula for Hydroxide ion isOH-, and it has a charge of -1.
What is oxidation number of carbon in Hydronium?
In the hydronium ion (H3O+), the oxidation number of carbon is +3.
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.
What is the formula of hydronium ion and oxide ion?
The chemical formula of hydronium ion is (H3O)+.For the "oxide ion" check your spelling.
The formula for hydronium ions is?
The chemical formula of hydronium is H3O +.
What is the symbol for hydronium ion?
AnswerWe use ph as the symbol to express hydronium ion concentration.
What is the hydronium ion and its formular?
The hydronium ion is simply the water ion with an extra proton. (H+) So: H2O + H+ ---> H3O+
What is the formula for the hydromium ion?
The formula for Hydronium Ion is H30+. Hydronium Ion is an Aqueous Solution and is also considered as a bare nucleus.
