MCQ
A solution whose $ pH$ value is less than $7$ will be
- ABasic
- ✓Acidic
- CNeutral
- DBuffer
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Acidic
b
$pH + pOH = pK _{ w }=14$
$pH + pOH = pK _{ w }=14$
If the $pH$ of a solution is less than $7$ , the solution is called acidic; In an acidic solution, then, the concentration of hydrogen ions is greater than the concentration of hydroxide ions.if the $pH$ is about $7$ , the solution is neutral; if the $pH$ is greater than $7$ , the solution is called basic.
