Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Solutions have more H+ ions than OH-ions, if the solutions are acids. A solution is an acid if its pH value is less than 7. There are many examples of such solutions. For example: HCl (hydrochloric acid), stomach acid, lemon juice, cola, beer, wine, orange juice, tomato juice, rain, battery acid, vinegar, etc.
Detailed explanation-2: -Basic Solutions → one in which [H+] is less than [OH-]. Basic solutions are also known as alkaline solutions. The pH scale ranges of 0-14, neutral solutions have a pH of 7. Acidic solutions have a pH of less than 7.
