Question

you are given two solution A and B the pH of solution A is 6 and pH of solution B is 8.
1. which solution is acidic which is basic ?
2. which solution has more H+ Ion concentration?
why is HCL stronger acid than acetic acid? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

1- A is acidic relative to B

2- A will have more H+ Ions

Explanation:

2- More the acidic nature of solution more will be the concentration of H+ ions.

The conjugate base of acid decides the acidic nature of solution. More stable the conjugate base of acid will be less acidic in nature

In comparison to the Chloride ion, carboxylate ion of acetic acid is more stable that's why it doesn't ionize in more amount
