Question

Which of the following statements is
correct about an aqueous solution of
an acid and of a base? (i) Higher the
pH, stronger the acid (ii) Higher the
pH, weaker the acid (iii) Lower the pH,
stronger the base (iv) Lower the pH,
weaker the base

(a) (i) and (iii)

(b) (ii) and (ii)

(c) (i) and (iv)

(d) (ii) and (iv)​

Answer 1

Answer:

On a pH sacle acidity ranges from 1 to 7 and it increases by moving down from 7 to 1 while basicity ranges from 7 to 14 which increases by moving up from 7 to 14. So, higher the pH value weak is the acid while higher the pH value for a base means stronger the base.

Explanation:

hope it helps..

Answer 2

Answer: The correct option is:

Option d)ii and iv

Explanation:Since the pH of acids ranges from 0 to 7 and pH of base from 7 to 14
