Acids are a special group of hydrogen-containing substances that dissociate, or separate, when in solution to liberate free H+ and anions. Many other substances (for example, carbohydrates) also contain hydrogen, but they are not classified as acids because the hydrogen is tightly bound within their molecular structure and is never liberated as free H+.
