To start off, an ion is an atom that has gained or lost one or more electrons. The definition of a molecule is two or more atoms held together by a covalent bond. Hydrogen only has one proton. This means that it can pass that one proton onto another element, making it part of a molecule. It can become an ion if it loses that one proton, or gains another proton.

∙ 11y agoA hydrogen atom consists of one electron and one proton only. H+ ion is formed when hydrogen looses its electron. Since hydrogen has only one electron, the only particle which is left after releasing electron from the hydrogen is proton, therefore the H+ ion is same as proton.
Electron has a negative charge so it can't be the proton/ H+, which is positive. They are opposite of each other.
Hydronium ion (H3O+) is formed when water (H2O) forms a coordinate covalent bond with H+. It can not be the H+ ion.
H2O: + H+ --------> H3O+
Hydrate is related to water. In inorganic chemistry and organic chemistry it is defined as a substance that contains water. e.g. ethanol, CH3-CH2-OH, can be considered as a hydrate of ethylene, CH2=CH2
CH2=CH2 + H2O ----------> CH3-CH2-OH
Therefore, non of the other species like electron, hydronium ion or hydrate are same as H+ ion...

Hydrogen ions (H plus ) react with hydroxide ions (oh-) to form?
HOH or H2O is water.
Is an acid is any compound that forms H plus ions in solution true?
Not all the time. Only acids that react with metals will give of Hydrogen (H) Acid + Metal --> Salt + Hydrogen
What is a solution called that has more OH-ions H plus ions?
When a solution has more hydrogen ions it will be acidic.
HBr plus NaOH equals plus?
HBr + NaOH ------> NaBr + H2O This is an acid-base reaction. The compounds will disassociate into ions in solution. The hydrogen from the HBr will go to the OH- and form water. The NaBr is a salt.
What do acids release in water?
Virtually all acids release hydrogen ions (or protons) in water. They also release other ions, but these are specific to each acid. For example, hydrochloric acids releases an hydrogen ion (H+) plus a chloride ion (Cl-).
Hydrogen ions (H plus ) react with hydroxide ions (oh-) to form?
HOH or H2O is water.
What do the H plus ions of an acid and the OH-ions of base form when they react?
hydrogen gas i believe or oxygen
Hydrogen ions H plus can be thought of as?
Hydrogen ions (H+) can be thought of as protons.
Does hydrogen form 2 plus ions?
yes:2protons,1 electron ;3 protons,2 electons
Do acids produce hydrogen ions h plus?
Yes they do!
What Name for the H plus ions?
A hydrogen ion or a proton
Is an acid is any compound that forms H plus ions in solution true?
Not all the time. Only acids that react with metals will give of Hydrogen (H) Acid + Metal --> Salt + Hydrogen
What is a solution called that has more OH-ions H plus ions?
When a solution has more hydrogen ions it will be acidic.
What substance forms hydrogen ions H plus in water?
any inorganic acid such as HCl, HNO3 etc and also a smaller number of hydrogen ions will be formed by organic acids
Why tin have stable plus 4 while lead have stable plus 2 as they belong to the same group?
Both tin and lead can form 2+ and 4+ ions.
HBr plus NaOH equals plus?
HBr + NaOH ------> NaBr + H2O This is an acid-base reaction. The compounds will disassociate into ions in solution. The hydrogen from the HBr will go to the OH- and form water. The NaBr is a salt.
What does H plus and OH- stand for?
H plus and OH negative are ions of hydrogen and hydroxide in their dissolved states. When a compound is broken down, it is broken down into it's ions, which will each have a charge.
