pH is defined as -log10[H+] it is a logarithmic scale, each gradation is a factor of 10. And just for good measure the minus sign tells you it runs "backwards"
So for HCl
pH 1 0.1 M
pH 2 0.01M
pH3 0.001M
so pH 2 has 10X concentration of acid of pH2

Is a pH of 2 stronger or weaker than a pH of 3?
Stronger
How many times stronger is pH 3 to pH 8?
316pH is defined as the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration. A pH of 2 is 10 times stronger than a pH of 3. A pH of 2 is 100 times stronger than a pH of 4.The easiest way of comparing pH of 3 and 5.5 might be to convert the numbers back to hydrogen ion concentrations, [H+].pH 3 means [H+] = 10-3 which is equal to 0.001 MpH 5.5 means [H+] = 0.00000316 MThis means that pH 3 is 316 times stronger than pH 5.5
Is a pH of 2 stronger or weaker than a pH of 4?
The lower the pH number the stronger the acid. So pH = 2 is a stronger acid than pH = 4
How many times a solution of pH 1 will be stronger than that of a solution having pH 2?
how many times a solution of ph 1 will be stronger than that of a solution having ph 2
Which has stronger acid a pH of 1.2 or a pH of 3?
PH 1.2, as PH 1 is very acidic

Which has stronger acid a pH of 1.2 or a pH of 3?
PH 1.2, as PH 1 is very acidic
How much stronger is pH 2 compared to pH 6?
A pH of 2 is 10,000 times more acidic than a pH of 6.
How much stronger is pH 9 than pH 4?
pH 9 - pH 4 = pH 5 It is stronger by 5 pH.
Who is the stronger acid one with a pH value of 1 or a pH value of 5?
pH of one is stronger
How do you tell a strong acid from a weak acid?
Using the pH Scales, if I have 2 Acids, one with the pH of 2 and another with the pH of 5.8, the Acid with A pH of 2 is stronger. 7 in the pH scale means Nuetral, and 14 means very strong Alkaline.
How many times stronger is a base with a pH of 13 and another with a pH of 10?
1000x stronger
What is the difference in pH between an acid with a pH of 2 and an acid with a pH of 5?
A solution with a pH of 2 is about 1000 times more acidic than a pH of 5. This does not necessarily mean an acid is stronger, though it may merely be in a higher concentration.
How does the pH value vary with the strength of acidity and alkalinity?
pH less than 7 indicates acid the lower the pH the stronger the acid. pH greater than 7 indicates alkalinity the higher pH the stronger the base.
What happens to the pH in the beaker as the acid is added?
The pH drops. The stronger the acid the lower the pH.
