Question

more \\(h^+\\) ions means the solution is...

select one:
a. more acidic
b. more basic
c. neutral
d. less conductive

Explanation:

Analyze hydrogen ion concentration

An increase in the concentration of hydrogen ions \((\text{H}^+)\) in an aqueous solution directly increases its acidity.

Relate to pH and acidity

A higher concentration of \(\text{H}^+\) ions corresponds to a lower pH value, which defines a more acidic solution.

Answer:

• a. More acidic (Correct answer)
• b. More basic
• c. Neutral
• d. Less conductive
