L'ion hydrogène H+, ou proton, est le noyau de l'atome d'hydrogène. Il ne semble pas que le proton puisse exister à l'état libre dans un solvant comme l'eau. Il s'associe en effet à une molécule d'eau, qui joue le rôle de base (accepteur de protons), pour former l'ion hydronium H3O+, ou ion hydrogène hydrate [...]. L'eau peut jouer le rôle d'acide (donneur de protons) [...] 2, record 1, French, - ion%20hydrog%C3%A8ne
