Question

You have two substances A and B. the pH value of solution A is 6 and pH value of solution B is 8. a) Which solution has more hydrogen ion concerntrated ? b) Which of the solution is acidic and which one is basic? please explain it nice with pH scale

Answer 1

Answer:

The pH value of less than 7 indicates an acidic solution while greater than 7 indicates a basic solution. The pH value of a neutral solution is 7. And the acidic solution has more hydrogen ion concentration.

Therefore, solution A with pH = 6 is acidic and has more hydrogen ion concentration than the solution B with pH = 8 which is basic.
