Answer:B
Which of the following is the relation between concentration of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in a basic solution?
A. Value of hydrogen ion concentration is greater B. Value of hydroxyl ion concentration is greater C. They are both always the same D. The concentrations keep changing
Explanation: In basic solution, the value of hydroxyl ion concentration is greater than that of hydrogen ion concentration. It can be represented as [H+]<[OH-].
