Question

Do acidic solutions also have OH- ions? If yes then why are these acidic?​

Answer 1

Answer:

? Answer: Yes basic solutions also have H+(aq) ions. They are basic because the concentration of hydroxide (OH−) is more than the H+(aq) ions.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Yes, all basic solutions have H+ ions. They are basic because the concentration of hydrogen ions is much less than that of hydroxide ions

In fact Water has H+ ion & OH- ion. But concentration of both (H+ &OH-)are equal

( [H+]=[OH-]=10^-7).

but water is neutral becuase [H+]=[OH-].

But if concentration of [OH-] is very very greater than [H+] , the solution is basic in nature & if concentration of [H+] is very very greater than [OH-] then the solution is acidic in nature.
