Acid more H3O+ than OH-
Base less H3O+ than OH-

Explanation:

  • When a solution is acidic in nature then it means its pH range is from 1 to 6.9. And, in an acidic solution there are more number of hydrogen ([tex]H^{+}[/tex]) or hydronium ([tex]H_{3}O^{+}[/tex]) ions as compared to hydroxide ions ([tex]OH^{-}[/tex]).

    For acidic solutions,    [tex][H^{+}] or [H_{3}O^{+}][/tex] > [tex][OH^{-}][/tex]

  • Whereas if a solution is neutral in nature then its pH will be equal to 7. This means that concentration of hydrogen ions will be equal to concentration of hydroxide ions.

    For neutral solutions,    [tex][H^{+}] or [H_{3}O^{+}][/tex] = [tex][OH^{-}][/tex]

  • If a solution is basic in nature then its pH will be greater than 7. This means that in a basic solution concentration of hydroxide ions is more than the concentration of hydrogen ions.

    For basic solutions,   [tex][H^{+}] or [H_{3}O^{+}][/tex]  < [tex][OH^{-}][/tex]
