A number less than a pH of 4 indicates a strong acid.
The pH number will be higher
i think a strong acid ionizes completely in water while a weak acid ionizes partiallly in water therefore the pH of a strong acid is greater than that of a weak acid The first part of your answer was correct, but the second was reversed. The pH of a strong acid is lower than the pH of a weak acid.
The pH of hydrochloric acid has a pH of 2.
No, pH 12 indicates a strong base, not a strong acid. A strong acid would have a pH value below 7.
The strength of an acid and alkali is shown using the pH scale which goes from 0 to 14 . pH number of acid is less than 7. and pH number of alkali is greater than 7. that's why the smaller the number the stronger the acid and the larger the number the stronger the alkali. so pH of weak acid is 6 and pH of strong alkali is 14 because if the smaller number shows the stronger acid, the larger number shows the weaker acid. And as larger number shows strong alkali, the pH scale is from 0 to 14; so 14 shows stronger alkali.
The pH of a strong acid is typically close to zero, as strong acids completely dissociate in water to release H+ ions. The pH of a weak acid is usually higher than zero, as weak acids only partially dissociate in water, resulting in a lower concentration of H+ ions and a pH closer to 7.
pH is not a measure of how strong an acid is, it is a measure of how acidic or basic a solution is. This depends on both the strength of the acid/base and how much is dissolved in a given amount of water. Any acid will produce a pH below 7, and a strong acid will usually produce a very low pH, but again, that depends on the concentration. However, a pH of 0-3 would be considered a strong acid. Yet concentrated glacial acetic acid although very corrosive and strong would not have a pH this low.
A strong acid will have a low pH and a strong base will have a high pH.
The pH will depend on the concentration of the acid, not on whether it is strong or weak.
The pH will depend on the concentration of the acid, not on whether it is strong or weak.
Usually a strong acid will produce a lower pH, but not always. pH is not a measure of the strength of an acid (or base) but the acidity of a solution, which is dependent on both the strength of the acid or base and its concentration in the solution.
Strong acid = 1 pH ( or lower ) Strong base = 14 pH ( or higher ) Neutral solution = 7 pH
