An Acid contains positively charged hydrogen ions (H+) and has a PH level less than 7
A base contains negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-) and has a PH level greater than 7.
A cation is a positively charged ion
An anion is a negatively charged ion
PH is a measure of the Potential or Power of Hydrogen. PH measures the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution.
PH is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. The lower the number the greater the concentration of hydrogen ions. The PH scale is logarithmic and follows a base 10 system.
