The correct statement about hydrochloric acid and acetic acid is : ( A )

The pH of a solution of hydrochloric acid must be less than the pH of a solution of acetic acid.

Given that pH is the inverse of concentration of H₃O⁺ ions , The stronger acid ( Hydrochloric acid ) dissociates in solution producing a maximum amount of  H₃O⁺ ion, while the weak acid ( acetic ) will disassociate partially in a solution producing a lesser amount of  H₃O⁺ ion.

Therefore the pH of a solution of hydrochloric acid must be less than the pH of a solution of acetic acid.
