How do hydroxyl ions form?
Hydroxyl ions form when a water molecule loses a hydrogen ion (H+) and gains an electron, resulting in an OH- ion. This process is also known as dissociation or ionization of water. The presence of hydroxyl ions contributes to the basicity of a solution.
An acid solution would contain?
both the hydroxyl ion and the hydronium ion
When bases dissolve in water they release what type of negative ion?
The negative ion is the hydroxyl group (OH)-.
What is the symbol of ion and name of ion for?
The symbol of an ion includes the element's chemical symbol and a numerical charge, if it is an ion. For example, the symbol for a sodium ion with a +1 charge is Na+, and its name is sodium ion.
What is the symbol for the oxygen ion?
the symbol for Oxygen is O, the Oxygen ion is 2-. therefore the symbol for the oxygen ion is O2-
Is a hydroxyl ion a solution?
Hydroxyl ion exist in solution but it is not a solution.
Why hydroxyl ion is a proton?
The hydroxyl ion is OH and isn't a proton.
Is a hydroxyl ion a positive ion?
No, a hydroxyl ion (OH-) is a negative ion. It is composed of one oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom and carries a negative charge due to the extra electron.

What ion is always produced in an base solution?
This ion is the hydroxyl -OH.
What chemical releases hydroxyl ion in a solution?
Bases releases hydroxyl ions in a solution.
What does a base produce when in solution?
A hydroxyl ion
What ion is produced when any alkali is dissolved in water?
This is the hydroxyl ion OH-.
An acid solution would contain?
both the hydroxyl ion and the hydronium ion
What does OH mean in science?
There is no such chemical symbol. 'OH' does not exist as a substance. However, the symbol 'OH^-' does exist, it is the symbol for the hydroxide anion(ion). Further when 'OH^-' is shown in a substance , e.g. NaOH , the 'OH^- ,moiety still exists but is cancelled out by the 'Na^+' Two equal and opposite charges.
What kind of solution does a base produce?
A hydroxyl ion
What is ion released by many bases?
the hydroxyl ion (OH-) and the metal ion (Na+, Ca+, K+, etc.)
