Five solutions A, B, C, D and E when tested with universal indicator showed pH as 4, 1, 11, 7 and 9 respectively. Which solution is strongly acidic? |
A B D E |
B |
The correct answer is option 2. B. The pH scale is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. It ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. Values below 7 indicate acidity, and values above 7 indicate alkalinity. The lower the pH value, the stronger the acidity of the solution. In the given options: Therefore, among the options, Solution B is the one that is strongly acidic with a pH of 1. |
