Detailed explanation-1: -When the hydrogen ions outnumber the hydroxide ions, the solution is acidic. If the reverse is true, then the solution is alkaline. (Kw is called the ion product of water or dissociation constant of water.) If you know the value of either [H+] or [OH-], you can find the value of the other.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: An acid will have a higher concentration of protons (H+) relative to hydroxide ions (OH-). The higher the concentration of protons in the acid, the stronger it will be.
Detailed explanation-3: -An acidic solution contains more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions.
Detailed explanation-4: -An acidic solution is a solution in which the concentration of hydrogen ions is greater than the concentration of hydroxide ions. For example, hydrogen chloride ionizes to produce H+ and Cl− ions upon dissolving in water.
