Hydroxide (OH-) ion
Bases release OH- ions in water.
acidic
Any compound which can disassociate into ions in solution is an electrolyte. These are most commonly water soluble salts, acids, and bases.
H2o--------oh- + h+ 2 h2o-----------------oh- + h3o+
Acetic acid is a weak acid because it only ionises to a minimal extent in solution to produce hydrogen ions.CH3COOH CH3COO- + H+By definition, a weak acid is a substance which only ionises to a minimal extent in solution to produce hydrogen ions. A strong acid, is a substance which ionises completely in solution to produce hydrogen ions.
Bases release OH- ions in water.
Acid and Bases are different by its concentration of Hydrogen and Hydroxide. Acid is any compound that forms H+ ions in solution and base is a compound that forms OH- ions in solution. But Both are compounds forming a type of ion in a solution.
A base or alkaline substance lowers the H (hydrogen ion) concentration in a solution. Bases can accept or remove hydrogen ions from the solution, increasing the concentration of OH- ions and thereby reducing the concentration of H+ ions. Examples of bases include sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and ammonia (NH3).
Any type of base that has one or more OH- ions in it and is soluble in water will release hydroxide ions in aqueous solution. Example:NaOH + H20 --> Na+ + OH-
Alkali produce hydroxyl ions in solution and it makes the solution alkaline.

Acids releases in water ion H+.
H2o--------oh- + h+ 2 h2o-----------------oh- + h3o+
Such a chemical must be a strong acid.
Acids have a large number of free hydrogen ions in the solution, while bases have a very low level. pH, for example, is the inverse exponent for the proportion of hydrogen ions; a neutral, pure water level is 7. Acids have a pH lower than 7, while bases have a higher number. If you mix an acid and a base, they neutralize each other and become salty water; the nature of the salt formed depends on the type of acid it was.
It may be potassium or ammonium ions And chloride or nitrite ions that have similar mobility in solution
