the more H+ ions the

stronger the acid

weaker the acid

|
it neutralizes
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A higher number of hydrogen ions indicates that the acid is stronger, whereas a smaller number of hydrogen ions indicates that the acid is weak.
Detailed explanation-2: -A solution with a pH less than 7 is considered acidic, and a solution with a pH greater than 7 is considered basic, or alkaline. Strong acids have a higher concentration of hydrogen ions, and they are assigned values closer to 0.
Detailed explanation-3: -If the hydronium concentration increases, the pH decreases, causing the solution to become more acidic. This happens when an acid is introduced. As H+ ions dissociate from the acid and bond with water, they form hydronium ions, thus increasing the hydronium concentration of the solution.
