The pH of four solutions W, X, Y, Z are 4, 6, 8, 10 respectively, therefore

a

none of these solutions is acidic

b

the pH of Y is made more acidic by addition of distilled water

c

Z is the most acidic solution

d

W is the most acidic solution

e

X is neutral

The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 *7* 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

« Acidic« »Alkaline»

7 as the mid value serves as Neutral

#Alkalinity sets in from 8 and increases as you move eastward the scale (i.e alkilinity of 9 is greater than 8, 10 than 9, 11 than 10 etc), then the greatest alkalinity will be reach at 14



#Acidity sets in at 6 and increases as you move westward the scale (i.e acidity of 5 is more concentrated than 6, 4 than 5, 3 than 4 etc), the most concentrated acidity will be reached at 0



So the correct statement there is (d) W is the most acidic solution

acidic solutions have ph level lower than 7 while neutral is 7 and basic is more than 7...W and X are acidic but W is more acidic because its value is lower than d value for X...... note: the lower the value the higher the acidity and the lower the basicity while the greater the value the higher the basicity and the lower the acidity.

W is d most acidic solution bcos it has d lowest value among d solutions nd d lower d value, d higher d acidity of a solution

W and X are both acidic but the question is "Which is the MOST acidic? W is the answer because its value is lower than that of X

W & X are acidic,Y & Z are basic,W is more acidic,the lower the value, the more acidic it is on the PH scale

the lower the value on the scale....
the more acidic the substance

w is most acidic this is because acidic substance are substance lower than 7

The level of acidity increases as the ph value decreases

The level of acidity increases as the ph value decreases,so the lower the ph value, the more acidic the substance is....

Acidic substances are substances whose pH is lower than 7 while substance that have pH of 7 are neutral substances and those that are higher than pH of 7 are alkaline in nature.

the pH value is from 1 to 14,7 is neutral,1 to 6 is acidic while 8 to 14 is basic so W is the most acidic solution with the pH of 6.
