Question

The concentration of hydronium ions is greater than 1 × 10–7 for acidic solutions.

Answer 1

Answer: The given statement is true.

Explanation:

It is known that for a neutral solution, concentration is $1 \times 10^{-7}$ or we can say that pH of a neutral solution equals 7.

Whereas for an acidic solution, concentration is less than $1 \times 10^{-7}$ and the pH of an acidic solution is less than 7.

On the other hand, for a basic solution concentration is more than $1 \times 10^{-7}$ and the pH of basic solution is more than 7.

Thus, we can conclude that statement the concentration of hydronium ions is greater than $1 \times 10^{-7}$ for acidic solutions, is true.

Answer 2

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

• The hydronium ion in neutral solution has the concentration of 1.0 x 10⁻⁷.

• For acidic solution, the concentration of hydronium ions is greater than 1 × 10⁻⁷ that the pH be lower than 7.
