<u>Given information:</u>
A solution with a high H+ ion concentration
<u>To determine:</u>
The nature of pH of such a solution
<u>Explanation:</u>
pH is a measure of the H+ ion concentration in a given solution. Lower the pH higher will be the H+ concentration and the solution is termed acidic. In contrast, if the pH is higher the H+ concentration will be lower and the solution is basic.
Mathematically,
pH = -log[H+]
[H+] =
pH = 2; [H+] = 10⁻²M
pH = 7; [H+] = 10⁻⁷M
pH = 13; [H+] = 10⁻¹³M
pH = 14; [H+] = 10⁻¹⁴M
Ans: (a)
Thus, the highest concentration of H+ ions is for a solution of pH = 2
