A student has two solutions of 0.10 M acid labeled just as A and B. The pH of one solution was found to be 1.02 and the other 4.73. Which statement is correct?
A.) One is a weak acid and one is a weak base.
B.) You cannot tell the strength of an acid from pH readings.
C.) Both are strong acids.
D.) One is a strong acid and one is a strong base.
E.) You cannot tell the strength of an acid without measuring the pH of diluted solutions.
F.) One is a strong acid and one is a weak acid.
G.) One is a strong acid and one is a weak base.
H.) Both are weak acids.
A.) One is a weak acid and one is a weak base.
B.) You cannot tell the strength of an acid from pH readings.
C.) Both are strong acids.
D.) One is a strong acid and one is a strong base.
E.) You cannot tell the strength of an acid without measuring the pH of diluted solutions.
F.) One is a strong acid and one is a weak acid.
G.) One is a strong acid and one is a weak base.
H.) Both are weak acids.
-
F
clearly both are acids pH<7
and the one at pH 1.02 is strong
clearly both are acids pH<7
and the one at pH 1.02 is strong
