Do we always assume acidic conditions and also if the conditions are basic what does that mean?

The question usually specifies whether the conditions are acidic or basic if that information is pertinent to the solution.

If the conditions are acidic you balance the half equations using H3O+ ions and if they're basic you balance using OH- ions
