Answer: The basic elements of acid are........

Explanation: When water splits apart (which doesn't happen to every water molecule all at the same time), hydrogen and hydroxide ions are created. The hydrogen ion H(+) can combine with negatively charged elements to form acids. Acids are molecules that can split apart in water and release hydrogen ions.

Answer:

One water molecule gains a hydrogen and therefore takes on a positive charge, while the other water molecule loses a hydrogen atom and therefore becomes negatively charged. H 3O + is called a hydronium ion, and it makes things acidic.
