Question

a Do basic solutions also have Hsupsup aq ions If yes then why are they basic b When a solution becomes more acidic does the pH get higher or lower

Accepted Answer

a All the basic solutions have Hsupsup ions but their concentration of them will be less than that of hydroxide ions OHsupsup and thus they become basic b When the solution becomes more acidic the pH will get lower because on the pH scale values lesser than 7 are acidic substances
