A student measured the pH values of four solutions marked A, B, C and D and found them to be 6, 12, 2 and 14 respectively. The solution which is likely to be strongly acidic is :
(1) A
(2) B
(3) C
(4) D

Solution

Lower the value of pH stronger will be the acid. So, solution C will be the strongest acid.

Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
