By indicating that the number of hydrogen ions required to balance the positive charge on the cation is True, the formula for a base can be written down.
In terms of H+ ions, what is a base?
The hydroxyl ions (OH-) produced will mix with any hydrogen ions (H+) in the solution to generate water molecules (OH- + H+ = H2O), therefore we can also define a base as a substance that receives or accepts hydrogen ions (H+) that are already present in the solution.
