A hydrogen ion is just a proton, H+. The pH of a solution depends on proton concentration, pH = -log of H+ concentration. Therefore, the greater the number of protons present in solution, the lower the pH number, and the more acidic the solution.
acidic
An acidic solution contains H+ ions, a basic solution contains OH- ions.
Basic solutions are solutions that have more than a 1E-7 concentration of hydroxide ion. Thus, solutions with "extra" hydroxide ions are basic. On the other hand, solutions with extra hydrogen (hydronium) ions are acidic.
pH tells you the amount of hydrogen ions in a solution. Acidic solutions have a pH less than 7 and more H+ ions. Basic solutions have a value over 7, and contain fewer H+ ions.
The presence of H+ ions, whereas basic solutions are basic because of the presence of OH- ions.
Acidic solutions contain very high concentrations of hydrogen ions. In an acidic solution, then, the concentration of hydrogen ions is greater than the concentration of hydroxide ions.

Acidic.
The presence of H+ ions, whereas basic solutions are basic because of the presence of OH- ions.
basic solutions have more bases in them, molecules that release 0H- ions in the solution. acidic solutions have more acids, molecules that give off H+ ions in the solution
Acidic solutions contain very high concentrations of hydrogen ions. In an acidic solution, then, the concentration of hydrogen ions is greater than the concentration of hydroxide ions.
You seem to be confused. acidic and basic are not things, they are properties. For example, vinegar is a solution, and it is acidic, because in solution, it dissolves to release hydrogen ions. Basic solutions, such as bleach, either accept hydronium ions in solution, or release hydroxide ions in solution. But all solutions, with the exception of distilled water, is either definatively acidic or basic. Look up a pH meter or a pH scale. The lower the number, the more acidic a solution is. The higher the number is, the more basic a solution is, and if it is 7.0, then it is neutral.
Acid solutions contain higher concentrations of hydrogen ions (hydronium ions).
No, LESS H+ than OH- ions in basic water solutions.
The more acidic a solution is, the more hydrogen ions it gives off.
An acidic solution has a greater number of hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions. However, technically they are hydronium ions (H3O+), not hydrogen ions.
