Question

you are given two solution A and B. The PH of solution A is 5 and PH of solution B is 9: (1) which solution is acidic and which is basic ? (2) which solution has more H+ ions concentration? (3) Why is HCL a stronger acid than acetic acid ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1) solution a is acidic and solution b is basic.

2) solution a has more h+ ions concentrated.

3) HCl dissociates completely in water and thus gives more H+ ions whereas acetic acid dissociates partially in water and thus gives less H+ ions. Due to this, HCl is a strong acid than acetic acid.
