What ions does a neutral solution contain and what is the quantity of each?

A neutral solution can contain ions of hydrogen, hydroxide, and the cation and anion of any neutral salt. There are equal numbers of hydrogen and hydroxide ions, and also an equal (but usually different) number of the other pair of ions.


What do acidic substances contain?

All acidic substances contain hydrogen. Not only this, but acidic substances must be able to "donate" a hydrogen ion (proton) to an aqueous solution. In case you needed to know, bases are the same, except instead of hydrogen, they have hydroxide (OH).


Does a basic solution contain more hydroxide ions than hydrogen?
