What do you meant by positive ions ? H+ , Na+ ? pH = - log [H+] Hence, if you wanna increase pH, you increase the H positive concentration. On the other hand, you can decrease the poH (adversely increasing pH) by decreasing the OH- concentration. pOH = - log [OH-] At 25 degrees celsius(where Kc = 1 * 10-14), pH = 14 - pOH What do you meant by positive ions ?

∙ 13y agoAcids are characterized by their ability to donate hydrogen ions into a solution when dissolved in water. On the contrary, bases donate hydroxide ions (OH-) into a solution when dissolved in water.

∙ 14y agono, higher pH's mean they are more basic. Lower pH's means they are more acidic

∙ 10y agoThe more OH- ions there are, the more basic the substance. If a substance has more H+ ions its acidic

Does a weak base produces more H plus ions than a strong base?
No. Bases don't produce H+ ions. They produce OH- ions. Strong bases produce more OH- bases than weak bases. Strong acids produce more H+ ions than weak acids.
What ions are produced by acids in water and bases in water Give two properties each of acids and bases?
Hydronium (H3O+) for acids and hydroxide (OH-) for bases. Acids: pH less than seven, have a sour taste Bases: pH > 7, slippery, bitter taste
Will a substance - with a pH of 10 - have more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions?
No. A pH of 10 is basic, which means, by definition, that it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium* ions. *Acids and bases are not measured with hydrogen atoms but the effect is the same.
Do strong acids have more or fewer ions than weak acids?
Depends. Strong acids have more H+ and less OH- ions than weak ones.
Why might fatty acids amino acids and nucleic acids increase the hydrogen ions concentration of a solution?
they have more ions than oter acids
Does a weak base produces more H plus ions than a strong base?
No. Bases don't produce H+ ions. They produce OH- ions. Strong bases produce more OH- bases than weak bases. Strong acids produce more H+ ions than weak acids.
How do acids and bases differ?
Acids are any compounds that form H+ ions in solutions while bases are a compound that produces hydroxic ions in solutions.

Depends. Strong acids have more H+ and less OH- ions than weak ones.
What are acid and base?
Acids, bases and salts are chemical compounds. Examples are: Acids: sulfuric acid, nitric acid, stearic acid, phosphoric acid, hydrofluoric acid etc. Bases: sodium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide etc. Salts: sodium chloride, gallium arsenide, potassium bromide, uranyl nitrate etc.
What contains more hydronium ions than hydroxide ions?
Acids
Do bases dissolves in water form more hydrogen ions than do acids dissolved in water?
No, it's the other way around.
Is acids and bases corrosives?
Yes, concentrated acids and bases are more corrosive than dilute acids and bases
Why might fatty acids amino acids and nucleic acids increase the hydrogen ions concentration of a solution?
they have more ions than oter acids
What is the pH rangr for acids bases?
Acids are less than 7, bases are more.
What substance has more hydrogen ions than pure water?
an acid has more hydrogen ions than water.
