Hydronium is H+.
Hydroxide is OH-.

One makes a solution basic, the other makes a solution acidic.  I'm sure you can figure out which does which.

A hydronium ion has the formula H3O+. It is what makes a solution acidic. The hydroxide ion has the formula OH-, and is what makes a solution basic. When combined, they form 2 H2O molecules.
