Acidic Solution

A solution that contains more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions
Real World Example
Imagine you're trying to balance a seesaw, but one side is weighed down with more people than the other. This is similar to an acidic solution where there are more hydrogen ions (H⁺) than hydroxide ions (OH⁻), causing an imbalance. Just as the seesaw tips towards the side with more weight, an acidic solution is "tipped" towards acidity because the hydrogen ions dominate, creating an uneven distribution between the two types of ions.
