✓ Answer: C Only OH-
pH is a measure of the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. A pH value greater than 7 indicates a basic solution, while a pH value less than 7 indicates an acidic solution. A solution with a pH of 12 is highly basic. In a basic solution, the concentration of OH- ions is higher than the concentration of H+ ions.
