Consider the pH value of the following acidic samples :

S.
No.
SamplepH Value
1.Lemon Juice2.2
2.Gastric Juice1.2
3.Vinegar3.76
4.Dil. Acetic acid3.0

The decreasing order of their H+ ion concentration is

  1. 3 > 4 > 1 > 2
  2. 2 > 1 > 3 > 4
  3. 2 > 1 > 4 > 3
  4. 3 > 4 > 2 > 1

Answer

2 > 1 > 4 > 3

Reason — The number of H+ ion concentration determines the acidic strength of the sample. The pH and hydrogen ion concentration are inversely related i.e., as the value of pH increases, the H+ ion concentration decreases hence decreasing order of their H+ ion concentration is 2 > 1 > 4 > 3.
