A
hydride ion
B
hydronium ion
C
Proton
D
hydroxyl ion
Answer
Proton
Explanation
Solution
Hydrogen have one proton and one electron, when it ionise, i.e. it lose one electron, then only proton is left in the nucleus, so H+ ion is formed during ionisation which is also called proton. \ \ \ \ \ \ \ ^H_{\bigg(\begin {array} \ e^- =1 \\\ p=1 \end {array}\bigg)} \ \ \ \longrightarrow \ \ \begin {array} \ H^+ \\\ {proton} \end{array}+ e^-
