Solution

pH is a measure of hydrogen ion concentration in a solution. Higher the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution, lower is the pH of the solution.

Q. If a solution X has a pH value of 8 and if another solution Y has a pH value of 10. Then compare the hydroxide ion concentration between them.

Q. Strength of an acid solution or a basic solution can be determined by knowing the hydrogen ion concentrations in them, using a

p H

scale.
(i) Neutral solution has

p H

7.
(ii) Acidic solution has

p H

less than 7.
(iii) Basic solution has

p H

more than 7.
The

p H

of a solution is inversely proportional to hydrogen

(H^{+})

ion concentration in it.

Five students Ankit, Nitin, Deepika, Gunjan and Pooja were given test tubes having solutions with

p H

1.2, 13.5, 10.0, 7.4 and 2.2 respectively. The correct order of decreasing
