Because the pH scale is logarithmic, a decrease in pH by two units corresponds to a 100-fold (10^2) increase in H+ concentration. Therefore, a pH of 4 has 100 times higher H+ concentration than a pH of 6. Since the concentration of H⁺ is directly proportional to H+ concentration, it also has 100 times higher concentration at pH 4 compared to pH 6.
