The statement best describes the difference between a substance with a pH of 3.0 and a substance with a pH of 6.0 is - The substance with the lower pH has 1,000 times as many hydrogen ions per volume of water.
pH is the scale or measure for the substance about its acidic or basic strength. It ranges from 0 to 6.9 which is acidic and 7.1 to 14 which is basic.
Acidic substance has high concentration of Hydrogen ions whereas, basic substance has low concentration of hydrogen ions, however for the OH⁻ ions it is reverse.
- Concentration of hydrogen ions is inversely related to its pH
- More hydrogen ions present, the lower the pH
- The fewer hydrogen ions, the higher the pH We know,
pH = -log() then,
=> 3 = -log ()
=> = (for pH = 3)
=> pH = -log()
=> 6 = -log ()
=> =
(for pH = 6)
Thus, The substance with the lower pH (3) has 1000 times as many hydrogen ions per volume of water.

Answer:
(a) dime
Explanation:
Convert all to metric unit:
0.5 cm = 0.005 m
1.8 cm = 0.018 m
71 cm = 0.71 m
In order to find out we would need to calculate the ratio R between the object diameter d and their distance s to our eyes:
Since the ratio of the dime is larger than the ratio of the moon, and the ratio of the pea is smaller than the ratio of the moon, only the (a) dime can cover your view of the moon.
