Interpretation : The concentrations of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions related to an aqueous solution are to be reviewed.
Concept Introduction : A hydrogen ion added to a water molecule transforms it into a hydronium ion. A hydroxide ion is created when a water molecule loses one of its hydrogen ions.
Answer to Problem 18LC
The concentration of hydrogen ions gives the acidic solution and the concentration of hydroxide ions gives the basic solution in an aqueous solution.
Explanation of Solution
The water molecules react to give a hydronium ion
Water self-ionization is the process by which water molecules generate ions which are given as follows:
The acidic solution is formed by hydrogen ion
