Neutral solutions.
Such a solution would be considered "neutral" - neither acidic nor alkaline (basic). It would have a pH of 7.
False - such a solution is considered "neutral"...neither acidic nor alkaline (basic).
No. pH is the negative logarithm of the concentration of the hydronium ion. Equal numbers of hydronium ions and hydroxyl ions occurrs only when a solution is neutral.
No, a substance with equal numbers of H+ ions and OH- ions is not necessarily a basic solution. In fact, a solution with equal concentrations of H+ and OH- ions is considered neutral, with a pH of 7. Basic solutions have a higher concentration of OH- ions compared to H+ ions, resulting in a pH greater than 7.
The pH of pure H2O is 7, which is considered neutral. This means that the concentration of hydrogen ions is equal to the concentration of hydroxide ions.

considered basic or alkaline. These solutions have a lower concentration of hydrogen ions and a higher concentration of hydroxide ions. Common examples include soap, ammonia, and baking soda.

the concentration of OH ions in solutions
The pH of pure water is typically around 7, which is considered neutral. This means that the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) is equal to the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in the water.
A pH value of 7 is considered neutral. At this pH, the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) is equal to the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-), resulting in a balanced solution.
If the concentration of H3O+ and OH- ions are equal, the solution is neutral with a pH of 7. This is because in neutral water, the concentration of H3O+ ions (from dissociation of water) is equal to the concentration of OH- ions.
Acid solutions contain higher concentrations of hydrogen ions (hydronium ions).
Basic solutions are solutions that have more than a 1E-7 concentration of hydroxide ion. Thus, solutions with "extra" hydroxide ions are basic. On the other hand, solutions with extra hydrogen (hydronium) ions are acidic.
