Both acids and bases produce ions when dissolved in water. Propose a way to describe what hydroxide ions (OH-) and H+ (hydrogen) ions are. What do they have to do with acids and

bases and the pH scale?

See explanation

Explanation:

Acids and bases contain ions that interact with water. According to the Arrhenius definition, acids are substances that produce hydrogen ion in water while bases are substances that produce hydroxide ion in water.

The pH scale is a graphic description of the hydrogen or hydroxide ion present in a sample. Since pH= -log[H^+], the higher the pH , the lower the hydrogen ion concentration and vice versa.

Similarly, pOH= -log [OH^-] , hence the more the OH^- concentration the lower the pOH.

However pH + pOH =14.

Thus the concentration of hydrogen or hydroxide ions present determines the pH of any solution.

depends on what you mean by "group." for order, it would be coleoptera (beetles). for class, it would be insecta (insects). for phylum, it would be the arthropoda (animals with jointed exoskeletons).
