Acid makes the pH number go up
Bases makes the pH number go down
It donates H+ions, thus neutralising the added OH-ions (from the base base) and preventing pH going up.
No a base does not donate a hydrogen ion, in fact it does the exact opposite and accepts the ion. An acid is the substance that infact donates the ion to the base.
Generally, a base will accept an H+ ion rather than donate one. In some cases a substance that normally acts as a base can donate an H+ ion, but in that situation, it is said to be acting as an acid. A substance that can act as both an acid and a base is said to be amphoteric. As and example, the bicarbonat ion, HCO3+ is generally considered a base, as it accepts a hydrogen ion to form carbonic acid, H2CO3, however, n some cases it can donate its remaining H+ ion to a stronger base to form a carbonate ion CO32+. This can be seen in the reaction between sodium bicarbonate and sodium hydroxide. NaHCO3 + NaOH --> Na2CO3 + H2O The bicarbonate ion, acts as an acid, donating a hydrogen ion to the hydroxide ion, forming a carbonate ion and a water molecule.
Because it may accept the proton but can not donate the 'OH-' ion.
H- hydranion
The kind of ion is an H+-ion, also called a proton.
Acids donates protons in the reaction.Simply protons are H+ ions.

Acids don't react with acids because acids are proton donors. This means that an acid will donate a H+ ion to the substance with which it reacts. Since both acids will donate a H+ ion to each other, nothing happens, and there is no reaction.
Acid donates a hydrogen ion, a proton, to a solution. H +
An acid contain the ion H+ or (COOH)+ and a base contain the ion (OH)-.
NaF is a Lewis base. the F- ion has electron pairs that it can donate for bonding.
donate H+ ions
Yes, the OH- ion has 3 lone pairs that it can potentially donate
By adding one (1) proton (H+ ion) to the base formula:example:(base ammonia) NH3 + H+(proton) --> (conjugated acid ammonium ion) NH4+
