You have two solutions, A and B. The pH of solution A is 6 and pH of solution B is 8. Which solution has more hydrogen ion concentration ? Which of this is acidic and which one is basic ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For solution A , `pH=6,H^+=10^-6 M`
For solution B, `pH=8,H^+=10^-8 M`
Hence `H^+` of sol `A gt H^+` of sol B
Thus, solution A is acidic while solution B is basic.
