AP Chemistry Question of the Day --65

Welcome back to my blog. Since most schools are doing the unit on acid and base at this time of the year and here is another question related to this topic.

Question 65: Four acids HA, HB and HC and HD solutions have the same pH, which of the following statements is correct:
A. They all have the same concentration
B. They are all strong acids
C. They are all weak acid
D. not enough information to make any conclusion

The correct answer is D. pH represents the concentration of hydronium ion in solution. The pH if an acidic solution is dependent on both the Ka and the concentration of the acid. A solution of a strong acid can have a higher pH due to lower concentration and a solution of a weak acid cna have a lower pH due to higher concentration.

Hope this helpful.
