How does a difference in 1 pH unit change in terms of H+ concentration? Ex: How does a pH of 3 differ from the pH of 4? Which one is stronger or weaker? Why?

Respuesta :

Answer:

A difference of 1 would mean there is either x10 more or less depending on where you are starting.

Explanation:

The pH of 3 differs from 4 because the acidity of 3 is 10x higher than that of 4. This is due to how the scientific notation of 3 in relation to pH is 10x^-3 while that of 4 is 10^-4 so in terms of the stronger acid that would be the one with the pH of 3.
