Question
You measured the pH of a 0.01M HCI solution (strong acid) and a 0.01M CH3COOH
solution (weak acid). What would you expect?
The pH of the 2 solutions would be the same since they are both 0.01M
The pH of the HCI solution would be higher because [H3O+] is higher
The pH of the HCI solution would be lower because [H3O+] is lower
The pH of the HCI solution would be lower because [H3O+] is higher
