Answer» Hydronium ion is a water molecule with an extra hydrogen ion attached to it. ( H2O + H+ → H3O+ ). It usually used to determine the acidity of a chemical compound.When a compound is put into water solution, the more the hydronium ion is produced, the higher the acidity is.EX: HCl + H2O → Cl- + H3O+. The Hydrogen ion is transferred to water molecule. The hydronium ion or hydronium is the name given to the H3O+cation, derived from the protonation of water. |
