1.	Give examples to show that proportions of H+ and OH- ions in aqueous solution determines the properties of those solutions.
Answer» The proportions of H⁺ and OH^- ions divides soil into the acidic, neutral and basic, types of soil. It is necessary for blood, cell sap etc to have H⁺ and OH^- ions in certain definite proportions for their proper functioning. Fermentation carried out with the help of microorganisms, other biochemical processes and also many chemical processes require the proportion of H⁺ and OH^- ions to be maintained within certain limits.
