Which of the following describes an aqueous solution that contains equal concentrations of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions?
a. acid
c. neutral
b. base
d. balanced
An aqueous solution that contains equal concentrations of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions is a c. neutral solution. the pH of a neutral solution is equal to 7 while that of acidic is below 7 and basic is higher than 7. H+ rich solutions are acidic while OH-rich solutions are called basic.
