[CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
|
The lower the pH, the greater the concentration of:
|
|
OH-
|
|
|
H+
|
|
|
Either A or B
|
|
|
None of the above
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The higher the H+ ion concentration is, the lower the pH of the solution. The pH scale is generally presented as running from 0 to 14, though it is possible to have a pH of less than 0 or greater than 14. For example, a highly concentrated 3.0M of HCl has a negative pH.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hydrogen ions make a substance acidic. That is why as the pH increases the H+ decreases, and as the pH decreases the H+ increases.
Detailed explanation-3: -On the pH scale, the number which has the highest concentration hydrogen ions is generally 0.
