What type of ions do acids form?
An acid is a substance that turns litmus paper into red. It is a proton donor and releases hydrogen positive ions or H+.
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 base solutions have more Hydrogen ions or Hydroxide ions?
No, LESS H+ than OH- ions in basic water solutions.
An acid is a compound that contains one or more?
Hydrogen atoms and produces hydrogen ions when dissolved in water.
Is hydrogen basic or acidic?
Elemental hydrogen gas, H2, is neutral. Although hydrogen is the main factor in determining if a substance is a base or an acid; Acids have H+ ions and depending on how many there are determines th strength of them. Bases on the other hand base them selves around OH-(hydroxyl) ions and once again the more of these ions present the stronger the substance basicity is.
A substance that forms hydroxide ions?
If a substance has more hydrogen ions than hydroxyl ions it causes the substance to be acidic on the pH scale, and vice versa. Hydrogen ions have a positive charge while hydroxyl has an negative.
What type of ions do acids form?
An acid is a substance that turns litmus paper into red. It is a proton donor and releases hydrogen positive ions or H+.
Why are hydrogen ions attratected to water molecules?
the hydrogen ions are attracted to the O in the molecule as it is more electronegative

No, LESS H+ than OH- ions in basic water solutions.
An acid is a compound that contains one or more?
Hydrogen atoms and produces hydrogen ions when dissolved in water.
Do acidic solutions give some or many hydrogen ions?
The more acidic a solution is, the more hydrogen ions it gives off.
When the pH is high the concentrations of hydrogen ions is?
pH refers to hydrogen parts the lower the hydrogen parts the more acidic a substance is the higher adversely relates to how alkaline or basic a substance is it is scaled from 1-14 i being the most acidic 14 being the most basic when the pH is high, then the concentration of Hydrogen(H+) ions is low
What do hydrogen ions usually bond with?
Hydroxly ion What? Oxygen and Hydrogen together is H2O, (water). Right? Then hydrogen usually bonds with oxygen. Or, could the answer be more like this: Hydrogen ions would most likely bond with like ions, thus the answer being Hydrogen. What do some of you think the answer is?

Are there are more hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions?
In a solution with a pH higher than 7, there are more hydroxide than hydrogen ions.
If a substance has more hydroxyl ions OH- than hydrogen ions H it is ---A--- an acid ---B--- a base ---C--- a salt?
[OH-] > [H+] means it's a strong base.
