generally 1 or 2. the lower the pH the more acidic. please specify what acid you are asking about to determine if it is a strong acid or not. acidity is based (pun not intended) on the amount of hydrogen ions in the solution. so a solution of HF (which is a weak acid) could have a high concentration leaving it with a high acidity (or low pH). there are cases where more complex solutions, whom which are strong acids, to have a lower acidity (or higher pH) than a weak acid.
No, pH 12 indicates a strong base, not a strong acid. A strong acid would have a pH value below 7.
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
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.
a pH of less than 7

The pH will depend on the concentration of the acid, not on whether it is strong or weak.

A number less than a pH of 4 indicates a strong acid.

yes a strong acid would have a lower ph level
a pH of less than 7
The pH of water will decrease when hydrochloric acid, a strong acid, is added to it. This is because the strong acid will increase the concentration of hydrogen ions in the water, leading to a lower pH.
pH is not a measure of how strong an acid is. pH is a measure of the concentration of hydronium ions in a solution, which is dependent on both the strength of the acid or base and its concentration in a given solution.
