What number on the pH scale indicates the strongest acid solution?

The pH scale does not indicate the strength of the acid, so there is no number on the pH scale that indicates the strongest acid. A pH value of zero will be the most concentrated strong acid, but even that isn't exactly correct. Concentrations greater than 1 M have pH values <0, but are not useful values because of intermolecular interactions and activity values.

What does a pH of 7 mean?
This is a neutral solution.
What does a number on the pH scale say about a solution?
A pH of 7 indicates it is neither acidic or alkaline, but neutral. Numbers smaller than 7 are acid, numbers higher than 7 are a base (alkaline). The further a number is away from 7, the stronger the level.
What doe a high number on the ph scale say about a solution?
That this solution is, or contains, a strong base. A base that disassociates almost 100% in said solution.
How many times more acidic is a solution of pH 1 than a solution having pH 2?
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.
The scale that tells how acicid or basic solution is?
The Ph scale.
A scale indicates the relative concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution?
pH scale
Is it true that the pH scale indicates the acidity of a solution?
Yes, it is true that the pH scale indicated the acidity (as well as how basic) of a solution.
Series of numbers that indicates the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution?
pH scale
The pH scale is a measurement system that indicates the concentration of these in a solution?
The pH scale is a measurement system that indicates the concentration of Hydrogen ions also called Protons.
What does a high number on pH scale say about a solution?
The solution is basic.
What does a low number on a pH scale say about a solution?
The solution is an acid.
What does a pH of 7 mean?
This is a neutral solution.
What does the number assigned to an earthquake mean?
It indicates the amount of energy released during the earthquake. It is a logarithmic scale, meaning (in this case) that 1 number more on this scale indicates 10 times more energy, 2 more indicates 100 times more energy, etc.
What scale describes the acidity of a solution as a number?
the pH
What's the the strongest base on the pH Scale?
The strongest base is the hydroxide ion, in the pH scale 0 to 14.
Is ph7 neutral?
The pH scale runs from 0 which is extremely acidic, to 14 which is extremely basic. A measurement of 7 indicates a neutral solution.
What does a number on the pH scale say about a solution?
A pH of 7 indicates it is neither acidic or alkaline, but neutral. Numbers smaller than 7 are acid, numbers higher than 7 are a base (alkaline). The further a number is away from 7, the stronger the level.
