To adjust the acidity in water, you will need one of these two ions, depending on in which way you'd like to adjust the pH:
- to lower the pH (acidity means that the pH of the water is between 1 and 7) you will add a solution containing H+ (or more specificaly H3O+) ions, like chloric acid (Cl- H+)
- to pull the pH up, you shall use a solution containing HO- ions, like sodium hydroxyd (HO- Na+)
