What is meant by “pH”? True or false: A strong acid always has a lower pH than a weak acid does. Explain.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The definition of pH should be defined. Whether the given statement is true or false.

A strong acid always has a lower pH than a weak acid does. Explain.

Concept Introduction:

pH = -log [H+]

pH stands for potential of hydrogen which determines the acidity and basicity of the solution. It is equal to the minus log of concentration of hydrogen.

Explanation

To express the small number, p scale is used, which implies to take the log of a number. Since, the concentration of [H+] in aqueous solution is small, by using the p scale in the form of pH scale, it is better way to represent acidity of the solution.

Thus, pH = -log [H+]

“A strong acid always has a lower pH than a weak acid”

Since, pH determines the hydrogen ion concentration
