Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "100".

Explanation:

pH is a value used to measure the level of acidity or alkalinity that a substance has. The name pH comes from the term "power of hydrogen" as it is given by the number of free hydrogens that a substance has. The pH scale is logarithmic, which means that differences in integer values represent differences that are tenfold in magnitude. Therefore, the change of the pH value from 5.0 to 3.0, is a difference of 100 times in acidity.
