Answer:
The H3O+ ion is considered to be the same as the H+ ion as it is the H+ ion joined to a water molecule. The proton cannot exist in aqueous solution, due to its positive charge it is attracted to the electrons on water molecules and the symbol H3O+ is used to represent this transfer.
The equation can be written as:
H+ + H2O(l) → H3O+(aq).
This is hydrolysis as it is involving water as a reactant.
