Violin is the highest piched with it's E sting. It' strings from highest to lowest are: E, A, D, & G. The Viola is second highest with A, D, G, & C. The Cello has the same string set, with a slightly lower pitch. The lowest is the Bass, wich strings I THINK are G, D, A, & E.

Will the pitch of sound be highest when the string is plucked on one string?

The pitch of the sound produced by a plucked string depends on several factors, including the string's tension, length, and mass per unit length. If the string is plucked at a point closer to its ends, it vibrates at a higher frequency, resulting in a higher pitch. Conversely, plucking closer to the middle lowers the pitch. Thus, the pitch can vary based on where the string is plucked, but it will not necessarily be highest when plucking just one string without considering these factors.

What can you use to tune your guitar?

A Guitar Tuner... You can use the E key on a piano/harmonica/etc to tune the lowest and highest strings. Then you put your finger on the 5th fret of the thickest string/E string. Play that note and the next string open. Tune the fifth string to sound like the 5th fret of the sixth string. Do that for the next 3 strings until you get to the 2nd thinnest string/B string. That time use the fourth fret of the string before it. Then tune the highest string to sound like the lowest string in a different octave. You can also use harmonics.
