Higher concentration.
pH is an abbreviation for potential Hydrogen. When the pH value is below 7 on the 0-14 scale, an aqueous solution is considered to be acidic. If the pH value of an aqueous solution is above 7, it is considered to be alkaline or base. When pH is at 7, it is neutral.
Below 7.0: Acidic (higher H+ concentration, lower OH- concentration H+ < OH-)
Exactly 7.0: Neutral (equal H+ and OH- concentrations H+ = OH-)
Above 7.0: Alkaline (lower H+ concentration, higher OH- concentration H+ > OH-)
The scale is considered a logarithmic scale, where 2 adjacent values increase or decrease 10 fold. (ex. a pH of 7 is 10x less acidic than a pH of 6, whereas a pH of 4 is 100x more acidic than a pH of 6).
Acids have a high concentration of H+
Bases have a low concentration of hydrogen ions. In contrast, acids have a high concentration of hydrogen ions.
they have more ions than oter acids
The acids all contribute hydrogen ions to the solution.
Acidic solutions contain very high concentrations of hydrogen ions. In an acidic solution, then, the concentration of hydrogen ions is greater than the concentration of hydroxide ions.
Acidic liquids are good conductors due to the high concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) which can move around the liquid, carrying the electric current between the positive and negative electrodes. Acids have a low pH value and a high concentration of H+ ions.
Bases have a low concentration of hydrogen ions. In contrast, acids have a high concentration of hydrogen ions.
Hydrogen ions
The more acidic a solution is, the more hydrogen ions it gives off.

Acidic liquids are good conductors due to the high concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) which can move around the liquid, carrying the electric current between the positive and negative electrodes. Acids have a low pH value and a high concentration of H+ ions.
as the pH increases in acids, the acids lose their ability to ionise in water, so less hydrogen ions are produced. so stronger acids, like hydrochloric acid with a low pH, produce more hydrogen ions than weaker acids, like ethanoic acid with a high pH.
Acids lose hydrogen ions.
Concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution is called: Acid concentration and pH = - log10(hydrogen ions concentration, in mol/l)
Acids release hydrogen+ ions (H+) when dissolved in water
