Acids are ionic compounds that break apart in water to form a hydrogen ion. The strength of an acid is based on the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. The more hydrogen ions, the stronger the acid. Bases are ionic compounds that break apart in water to form negatively charged hydroxide ions. The strength of the base is based on the concentration of hydroxide ions. 
Hence, letter C is the correct answer.

Why is melting ice cream a physical?
worty [1.4K]

Melting ice cream is a physical change because it is a phase change, the water in the ice cream gains thermal energy and the inter-molecular forces are overcome and the molecules move further apart forming a liquid. It is not a chemical change because no chemical reactions occurred.
