How many times more acidic is a solution of pH 1 than a solution having pH 2?

Answer 1

To first answer this question you must know how the PH scale works. Essentially the PH scale is a logarithmic scale. A logarithmic scale unlike a linear scale (you know the scales that go from 1, 2, 3, etc.) works using exponential increments. For the PH scale every time you go one number down the solution the item in question becomes ten times more acidic than the number above. Therefore to ultimately answer your question a solution with a PH of 1 is ten times more acidic than a solution that has a PH of 2.

Answer 2

The solution with a pH=1 is more acidic than a solution with a pH=3.

Answer 3

The solution with a pH=1 is more acidic than a solution with a pH=3.

Answer 4

The solution with a pH=1 is more acidic than a solution with a pH=3.

Answer 5

100 times more acidic
