A common ion found in a glass of water is the hydroxide ion (OH⁻), which contributes to the water's basicity. Additionally, water itself can dissociate into hydrogen ions (H⁺) and hydroxide ions, maintaining a balance that is essential for various chemical reactions. Other ions, such as sodium (Na⁺) and chloride (Cl⁻), can also be present if the water contains dissolved salts.
Chemical symbols are shorthand notations used to represent chemical elements in the periodic table. Each symbol consists of one or two letters, with the first letter always capitalized (e.g., H for hydrogen, O for oxygen). These symbols provide a universal language for chemists, allowing them to easily communicate the identities of elements and their combinations in compounds. Additionally, certain symbols can also represent ions or specific isotopes.

Examples: OH-, H+ and impurities as CO-3, Na+, Ca2+, Cl-, etc.
If the water is pure, it will contain H3O+ ions and OH- ions. They are hydronium ions and hydroxyl ions.

In water, the most common ionic symbols are H+ (hydrogen ion) and OH- (hydroxide ion). These ions result from the dissociation of water molecules into H+ and OH- ions, a process that helps make water a good conductor of electricity.

When the salt is dropped into the water, the salt crystals dissolve into their individual sodium and chloride ions. These ions become surrounded by water molecules due to their polar nature, forming a solution of salt water. The water molecules surround the ions through hydrogen bonding, allowing the ions to move freely throughout the water.
