acidic
When acids are dissolved in water, they donate hydrogen ions (H+). The specific ions that separate from acids in solution depend on the type of acid. For example, hydrochloric acid (HCl) separates into hydrogen ions (H+) and chloride ions (Cl-), while sulfuric acid (H2SO4) separates into hydrogen ions (H+) and sulfate ions (SO4^2-).
It is a neutral solution, pH = 7.0 at room temp.
Acids typically have hydrogen ions (H+) in solution. These ions are responsible for the characteristic properties of acids, such as their sour taste and ability to react with bases.
A solution with a pH greater than seven is considered basic or alkaline. This indicates a higher concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) compared to hydrogen ions (H+), resulting in a basic solution.
A solution with a pH of 7.0 is considered neutral. It means that the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) is equal to the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in the solution. Water at room temperature has a pH of 7.0.

Acid solutions contain higher concentrations of hydrogen ions (hydronium ions).

Not simple to answer - acidic solutions contain more hydrogen ions that hydroxide ions, but there are very many ions that can cause hydrogen ions to be in excess - for instance the hydrogen-sulphate ion (from an acid salt such as sodium hydrogen-sulphate) when added to water has a tendancy to split into hydrogen and sulphate ions, so making the solution acidic. Not all acid salts are acid in soultion - for instance sodium hydrogen-carbonate is alkaline. When dissolved in water, the hydrogen-carbonate ion tends to react with hydrogen ions in the water to form molecular carbonic acid - removing hydrogen ions from the water and hence making it alkaline. Acid salts of strong acids, such as sulphuric, hydrochloric, nitric, are acidic in solution. Acid salts of weak acids, such as carbonic, sulphurous, are alkaline in solution. Just a few simple examples.
A solution with a pH greater than seven is considered basic or alkaline. This indicates a higher concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) compared to hydrogen ions (H+), resulting in a basic 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).
A solution with a pH of 7.0 is considered neutral. It means that the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) is equal to the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in the solution. Water at room temperature has a pH of 7.0.
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.
Bases release hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution. These ions can accept a proton (H+) to form water, which helps increase the pH of the solution, making it more basic.
Every acid contains hydrogen atoms. When an acid dissolves in water, hydrogen ions (H+) are released, making the solution acidic.
Alkali produce hydroxyl ions in solution and it makes the solution alkaline.
